Description Buhhhh, I painted this while sitting/laying in a fetal position because of some bad food/drink or maybe I'm just getting sick. But it's Atlas, he belongs to *tir-ri and he is beautiful. I don't know if fish bring the most pleasant dreams but I know he's fishing for a really big one. ^_~

Despite I'm using this currently as my desktop wallpaper, I just keep coming back here to over and over! If I only had the gourage, I'd love to run my fingertip over those soft lashes... Mmmhh, the effort you put into faces, Viva! *Curls over the picture*

Oh, Miss Riikka, that makes me so happy to hear! <3 I think he deserves some happy touches, for all the trouble he gets put through on account of those naughty siblings! >:3 I can't wait to give you the real thing. *3*

this is so great as an illustration to a fairy tale. what do you think the title would be? "The Sea Prince and the Girl from the Sea"?

I could make a whole story up now...

That could be a title, but Miss *tir-ri knows the best title because he's her prince. :3

Oh yes, colored finger tips make me go UMPFFF!!! God I love it when they look like they've been nibbling on them too hard, or maybe it's a little too cold out there. OwO

quietsecrets In reply to bluealaris [2010-04-29 20:45:27 +0000 UTC]

AHH YES any kind of colored tips

SO does this painting process take a long time and a lot og layers or do you put it down thick

bluealaris In reply to quietsecrets [2010-04-30 02:55:03 +0000 UTC]

Oh gosh! To be honest I just painted it in one night. I started the sketch and then worked on it for a few hours. I think I just laid out the skin as a soft peach over that golden under color and then I just started popping that sweet red until they looked cold and bitten. *nosebleed*

Because i dont want ppl to be mean at me! (this phrase came to my mind and i it made me think a bit the first time i heard it, cuz at least in me, its true, im polite and kind with most ppl in real life, because im not strong enough to deal with mean ppl).

Mew mew mew!!!!! I didn't know you were in so much pain, my beeb, but maybe I should whip you while you work because this came out gorgeous. Perhaps beautiful things can blossom from the most intense and ugly pain.

OH HO HO I am so poetic. This is so fucking hot. 8D;;;; Atlas Atlas Atlas!!!!! He seems like he's just waking up all sleepy eyed.

This piece is stunning! The color scheme is such a great balance of warm and cool colors, and I always love the amount of detail you put into your paintings- in particular his fingernails, eyebrows, and those delicate eyelashes! I also love the shape of his lips You are such an inspiration!

I have a random question~ do you ever use masking fluid?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

bluealaris In reply to sorskc [2010-04-25 16:39:11 +0000 UTC]

Eeee! Oh no masking fluid! I very rarely use it I must admit! I probably should. I've tried it a few times and I haven't mastered applying it with enough detail as I'd like. *tir-ri is really the master of it, I have so much to learn from her. ;
Thank you so much, it really means a lot to me that you'd say those things, you're one of the people that I really look up to as inspiration on DA. I love to paint lips and eye-lashes over the eyes. So hot <3.
