Outstanding photo. I would have burned myself trying this. Im assuming that the star was plastic? As in a bead or something?

I made them myself If you type 'how to make paper stars' into the search here on DA you will find out how to and can make lots of yourself too But I have to warn you - making them is addictive

ElessarTelcontar In reply to paper-butterfly [2010-06-07 07:38:31 +0000 UTC]

paprika?
omg. i must congratulate you on not getting it burn the hell out of the blueberries.
what's the surface you're using here?

and is that a coin in the centre you used to keep the fire away?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

paper-butterfly In reply to ElessarTelcontar [2010-06-07 08:42:12 +0000 UTC]

The surface is just paper (the floor underneath is also wood), so even more reason to try and not set anythign on fire.

And yes it is a coin. I should retouch the photo and make it less obvious some day.

ElessarTelcontar In reply to paper-butterfly [2010-06-07 14:44:57 +0000 UTC]

o.. na...
coins do a very good job at it, why hide it?
(for example if you hold a coin tightly in a handkerchief and try to burn the handkerchief, it won't burn. the coin repels the fire away )

paper-butterfly In reply to ElessarTelcontar [2010-06-07 15:58:59 +0000 UTC]

True, but I might still smooth it out a bit, so that it does not say '2 two' etc on it XD
Did know about the handkerchief o_O

I love creativity and I love sophistication. I would have stopped by and left a comment for each of them - how could I not do so with both being present??

Well, if you have some spare time - feel free to do that.
Also, seeing that your gallery is mainly focused on the drawing of people - may I ask you for feedback on smth I should submit v.soon?

Promet-he-us In reply to paper-butterfly [2010-06-02 19:16:04 +0000 UTC]

Really only a little spare time - but I it spend almost entirely on dA. And really that is a hard request ... I didn't see that coming and as much as I appreciate your work I myself am not really could in working with objects...

Nono, that would be about figure drawing, because I now have a drawing tablet, so I was trying to get used to drawing with it, not with oils. And after my first try [link] I realised that most of my watchers are interested in Photography I do XD

You mean what a unicursal hexagram means? It got a lot of history, but I believe I did not misplace it in this case XD

paper-butterfly In reply to jith3d [2010-06-01 18:43:19 +0000 UTC]

With all respect, but if you are referring to what I think you are referring, I would advise cinsulting these two pictures [link] and [link] and realise that they are not the same in the way they are drawn and the meaning they hold.

Well I was more worried that the paprika was going to ignite and that would burn fast being a powder, but I had a glass of water ready just in case
