Description Yay for spiders!

Okyday.... so, for my graphics class, we're all doing this color study, where we get one color to work with and we have to depict the feeling/emotion/thing-that-we-are-reminded-of-by-it. We chose the colors out of a bag, and everyone was moaning and groaning when they got orange and lime green and such... and I got BLACK! I could not be happier!

So, the general thing that everyone thinks of with black is SCARY. (and danger, and dark, and decay, and so on and so forth.) Personally, thats not my opinion, but whatever. And whats the creepy little thing that everyone is terrified of? SPIDERS. ( not me, though. I have a pet black widow. )

This project was alot of fun. I finished early, so I might upload the other one I did for black. XD

Everything done on Photoshop.

This is fantastic, really quite creepy!
Do you mind if I put this in my mind map for my AS Level art journal? Part of my mind map is fears and dreams,and surprisingly a lot don't like them! I can't see why, they don't do much harm really....unless you get some in your bananas or something, lol!

Not at all! I think that the ultimate compliment is when people choose to use your artwork.... especially when they ask! lol.

I don't think i have ever come across a spider in my bananas.... *scratches head*

I'll let you know if it gets good comments from my teacher!
I haven't come across one in my bananas either, but you hear stories of spiders accidently being shipped with fruit and stuff!!

Nicely done. Mind if I use this for the wallpaper on my Desktop?

I keep picturing some kind of text or a little gothic poem on it though, but all in all it looks great.

xD .. i'm a fav'n fool..

you know.. Black widows eating their mate is just a myth (unfortuantely >.<; ..)
did you buy her? or jsut catch her?.. i heard you can't buy black widows because their babies are microscopic.. o.O; .. if they lied to me.. i'm gonna be soo angry.. oh well.. i'll just catch the next one we find..
name her morticia.. xD *retard*

lol. I guess i saw her eat a rival spider, then. ah well. Nah, i found her. Rescued, her, actually, from my mom and her broom. she's not to keen on me wanting a spider for a pet. I wonder what she's gonna say when i tell her i want a rosy boa? lol.

And... whats Glosalalia???

xD .. hmm i see snakes as a pointless pet.. maybe cause i grew up playing with them out in the yard.. they're fascinating for about a minute to me *A.D.D* haha!
but i want a black widow.. the only reason i never kept any that we caught was cause of the microscopic baby problem.. i didn't want them infesting my house and killing me.. and then i found out they aren't nearly as poisonous as believed.. -.-; fricking myths

glosalalia is the language of the soul for Lisa Gerrard (a singer).. yeah that's a bit confusing.. but.. the language of her soul, she says, is called glosalalia.. you'l have to listen to her music.. absolutely gorgeous and sung completely in "Glosalalia"
