Joking. I like that piece the best.
take pictures while you can
are the last two a redo of an older drawing?
kaz- happens. The drawing girls part.
saltiness - After this semester, I don't want to see oils again, ha.
beavo - thanks! Yeah, the last ones are a redo. I don't know when I did the old one, but I get bored and just paint over some of my old pictures.
I'm again in too much awe to give you any useful information.

oooooh alright then. That does seem more reasonable now, heh!
you know i've always loved your work wak, it's always fantastic, but i'm really liking the direction you've been taking lately.
...frikkin' kids and their talent.
Your solid yet blending brush strokes infuriate me. How the heck do you do that?
And then I can't do any of them because the assignments we get for our illustration classes are about the most boring shit ever. Right now our assignment is to make an editorial illustration for a newspaper article on phosphate.
Virum - I have really hard time rendering the faces cus I can't see them. I need glasses bad. I don't use vine, but I used some kind of block compressed charcoal. Its pretty much what scos just said.
Srsizzy - Just the normal paintbrush. I just keep blending the shadows in and everyonce in awhile grab a new color with the color picker. I can't explain it but I know lexxy does it better than I do.
N O - you're happy, so I'm happy, ololol
DEAD - I wish it were perfectly rendered, heh. I did that second one in less than a hour.
Lly - thanks!
Mustang - awkward silence
another paintover of an old pic
And this is what Im going to start using all my gestures for. I hate the idea of using a photo for a reference, cus It just feels like cheating. And since I don't really have the cash to go out and hire my own models, this is the best i'll be able to do.
see the first thing i thought of when you said "newspaper editorial illustration on phosphate" is like a 50's style pin-up ad for phosphate, raving about all of it's awesome qualities. with like a house wife lecturing her kids, tom and jane on all the wonderful ways phosphate has made our lives better. old advertisments are so great.
One of the critiques she gave me once for a picture was I made my girls too pretty, and that an art director would never go for it.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
That's dumb, your teacher is dumb.
Awesome stuff as always
I like the redone drawings, it's cool to see people's progress like that. How long has it been between drawings?
she's probably just jaded because the boys at school never thought she was pretty
as is the case with like 98% of all feminists
(the other 2% are just straight up psychos)
paint a picture of her and tell her you're following her advice
edit:
seriously though your stuff is pretty amazing, i'd love to get prints of some of it, especially the first painting in the OP
you'd probably make a mint off selling prints on deviantart.
Also I would love to sell some prints, but I just don't know how well they would sell. I always get people that are all "I would totally buy that! But not not really!"
A Graphire?! When/If I get a Intuos 6x8, I'm sending you my Intuos 4x5.
That's good to hear than you can kick this much ass with it.
I'm stuck on the graphire 4x5 poverty train too.
I bought some watercolor board and I plan on doin a lot of water colors in the next couple weeks or so.
How much do they cost, and what's the ideal size to get if you had a little bit more money?
