Description EDIT: Ooookk this got moved to scraps because I never bothed to mention its finished now... well guys, ITS FINISHED ITS NOT A WIP ITS BEEN FINISHED FOR OVER A YEAR. So I'm moving it back.




... 's back to be exact.

I know I know, my painting titling skills are simply staggering

This painting is HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE, It's almost taller than me. I look like an idiot when I try to carry it around. It's like a canvas with legs!

ANYHOO, again, is in Cherry Hood-style(ish) and is for school. I'm not happy with it . . . yet. People keep getting mad at me for taking it down off the 'finished shelf' but I want it to be good damn it!

That just means I need to do it while no one else is around
Mwahahahaha.


This is Nay standing next to the painting so you can get an idea of size --> [link]

Wow, this is so expressive! Most people have to show the subject's face to have this kind of feeling in their picture, but you managed to create a sort of tense stillness with just color and pose. At least that's the feeling I get from it
Only thing I would have done differently would be to blend the colors on the left side of the picture more, to create the same smoothness the right side has.
Overall, great piece!

I like this much better then the last. IT has a great atmospher.
Dont bee silly,m canvess's with legs are far more awlkward. The fall down alot and live in high shrubby mountains. Which is why you don't see them very often.

KatArtIllustrations In reply to Loud-Little-Thing [2006-07-27 09:46:55 +0000 UTC]

The last as in the self portrait? Probably because this is a lot closer to being finished.

No I agree entierly. I'm not doing the same thing exactly with the other though. They will have a lot of ball-point pen scribbles over it once I'm done
