Thank you very much, itΒ΄s sounds interesting, I would definitely join the contest...
I checked the link you sent, and got a question...!?
- Is it only possible to choose one piece of art work, or can I send as much as I want..!?
(ItΒ΄s hard to just pick one heh)
Regard

Wowwwwww thats amazing man!!!!! Must feel good to be an exhibition! I got to start looking around my area and see if i can do stuff like that!!
Shirts have been going well!! I mean im just happy for me to wear them haha and on top of that people are buying them... Mostly people i know but a few from deviantart which is a great feeling! Im also glad i can help the guy who hired me he said only my shirts were selling so im trying to get people to at least go to the site not jst for my shirts u know? He made me business cards to soo its amazing!!! But its too bad he doesnt do international shipping a few people i know from here wantted a shirt but he lives in germany... But its free shipping for the usa so the shirts arent crazy expensive and i think thats why people are buyingthem...
Startiny college soon so i should be uploadin more work soon but right now im going through an artistd block so im trying to get out of it so i can create again

Sorry for my really late answer i have just been teaching an art class in something called Sweden, it is a country in Scandinavia right besides Denmark where i am from...
I just returned home yesterday...
But HELL YAAAR you should do that, that was how i startet doing it, my first exhibiton was a small one in a local store window... and then it got bigger and bigger heh
Oh, thats NICE!!! sounds good, do you have a link to the site!? but it is a shame, he donΒ΄t do international shipping... But maybe someday when its getting bigger... Just the possibility to sell your t-shirt is great isnΒ΄t it... !?

Oh, thatΒ΄s nice anyway, youΒ΄ll get to expose your art, thatΒ΄s nice even if its fancy or not...
Yeah, me and a friend were on vacation/Road trip all through Florida, and we were in Miami when the rain an storm wind hit...
argh, should have known you were living in Florida, i could have dropped by to say hello... But we had a great trip and we are for sure coming back to Florida, so maybe another time...
but im glad that you and your family are okay...!
How long is one semester!? but itΒ΄s nice you like it, isnΒ΄t you art class and drawing class like one class...!?

SDarling In reply to gerardway710 [2012-07-09 22:02:24 +0000 UTC]
Heh, your welcome...!
But actually, the link that I posted, was an SHORTCUT link, that means whenever you type [me.deviantart.com] (which is the name of the link I posted) youΒ΄ll always get to your own page, so if i for example clicked on the link, that I posted, I will get to my own page, and so on, for anyone else who click on it...
But with that said, i think your stuff is cool, I pretty much did the same when I started drawing....

Ev-sta In reply to SDarling [2011-12-27 00:04:53 +0000 UTC]
as of right now i like all kinds of music except like rock and country... like stuff that inspires me mostly and has an amazing beat.. not really one to listen to the words it kinda just has to flow with me... However.. Mac Miller is my favorite rapper right now i love his beats because they arent really normal in my opinion they kind of have a cool twist... his new stuff isnt really all that but hes old stuff is freakin awesome...
but i just discovered this guy his name is Pogo and hes from youtube and he does video mash ups and seriously inspires me i dont know why.. lol im ramblin...

Jaah, I also like a variety of music genres, but not all that death metal and heavy metal thing ... it frustrating to hear, I think ...
and certainly Mac Miller is totally cool ... as you have it with Mac Miller, that's how I feel about Kid Cudi ... it is a little skewed .... Love it heh
Haha, Pogo it's really nice, it sounds really cool what he does, there is probably some work into it heh ... I'm just the one that Disney mash-up in my class and now we hear the constant heh ...

Lol yeahh.. I also just recently heard the song "lotus flower bomb" by Wale and its really good love his style. I havent really listened to Kid Cudi nit because i dont like him just because i havent listen to his music lol ill jump on that though!

SDarling In reply to Ev-sta [2012-01-02 15:18:38 +0000 UTC]
Heh, yes lotus flower bomb is a cool song, but I've never really smelled the perfume heh!
Kid Cudi is too crazy heh ... it is very chillaxing his music, he has probably smoked a joint before he went into the studio, but I think itΒ΄s great heh...

great gallery, i thought your stuff was simple photo shop modifications at first. i had a question though. Do you find photos that are already just two colors, do you modify them yourself, or do you not use a reference at all?
π: 0 β©: 1
SDarling In reply to harperugby [2011-11-03 23:06:41 +0000 UTC]
Thank you, I'm doing the best I can heh ...
No, my paintings have nothing to do with photoshop, I'm not very good at photoshop actually, I only know some basic rules and things that I learned of tutorials around the web heh ...
It is mostly pictures, of people who order the images I paint, and then you can really say I paint the picture but I am exaggerating the shadows on the picture and that's it reflected in my paintings ... I've been told that you can use photoshop to do something like I do, but do not know how heh ...
But there are many times where it never succeeded the first time, so I always mark up with a thin pencil on canvas before I begin to paint so I can adjust the painting before I make mistakes heh ... It may take me a week just to point up a painting, before I am satisfied heh...

harperugby In reply to SDarling [2011-11-04 06:38:13 +0000 UTC]
thanks. So you use reference photos and modify them yourself? You have an amazing ability in capturing an image with minimal depth. Thanks for taking the time to respond

Yes exactly, thank you very much, I have also studied it for 3 and a half year now, so Im glad that it shows in my work... so Im making progress heh...
No problem at all, anytime...

harperugby In reply to SDarling [2011-11-05 07:23:18 +0000 UTC]
you should add in your tutorials the process you do for making the shadows on your reference a solid color and the process you use to get such accurracy on you illustrations

SDarling In reply to harperugby [2011-11-05 11:02:37 +0000 UTC]
Actually a good idea, I see what I can do, I'll actually start with a painting this weekend, if time does not run from me, but it will be pop art, but it is somewhat the same principle I use ...
A bit like the tutorials I've made ββfor my popart drawings in my gallery ...
