my sweet hell _colors

Just the color version of this old scribble... anyway the eyes of lisa are very very very special

freedom

This is a gift to Martin (aka Matrix.dll) , by his support  and by send me energy the last week,  I am very thankful...

_________________________

your lips

caution: This is a stranger scribble, the simbolism of this is a little secret,  anyway enjoy! lisa is sending a kiss in this picture,

...No comments so far?  :confused: Oh, well, let me be a first one...

About "sweet hell" i've already told you, what i'm thinking.  :star:
As for freedom... Well, thank you so much for the picture, dedicated to me!
I didn't even thought, that at some day Gustavo by himself will send me a gift!
Again, thanks a lot for such a beautiful gift... :love:

As for the "your lips"... This one is very impressive. Especially in combination with your comment to this pic...  :eek:
Lisa is a bright candle in this darkness, for sure!

I said it so many times, and i'll repeat - your fan-art is most expressive, impressive and powerful from any other i ever saw!..
Thanks for it, and despite of everything, never never never stop drawing Lisa!.. Never!

I especially like”freedom” This imaginative combination of a few deferent objects (Able, butterfly...ECT.) The shading is probably going to be my inspiration for some future work.

I saw these last night when I came home from a friends 18th birthday party. I was a bit *worse for wear* so to speak so wouldnt of made a legible reply lol.

I am so glad to see your pictures again Gustavo.

My fav here has got to be freedom, Martin is lucky. I love always how crisp and sharp the colouring is ad how clean the image looks. Absolutely beautiful.

You have brought a smile to me this morning when i looked properly (and a drunken smile last night too haha).

I like all these drawings but, my personal favourite is 'Your Lips' :P

I love that, every strand and flail of cloth or hair seems to be crafted with the precision and care that you can only get from passionate artists such as yourself. :) Gives the rest of us a standard to aim for! :D

'My Sweet Hell' and 'Freedom' are also great. The colours are fantastic, but my favourite aspect of your colouring style is the soft shading. I also like the detail and significance of the butterflies in your pictures too.

I'm just really glad to see your art again. :)

@Matias, Carl, Leif and Mart?n.

Thanks...  :)

Welcome back to active status, Gustavo! :)
I like Freedom the best of the three, the colors are very warm. Martin is a lucky fellow, indeed.
I don't understand the symbolism of 'Your Lips' but it reminds me of a couple other old drawings from a while ago in texture and mood. Very nice.

thanks Roger... ?_?

Why are you sorry ? ;) I'm very happy to see that you're back on the board. :lisa:
Your pictures are cuter than ever and my favourite is 'freedom' :love:

As matrixdll says, never stop drawing !

Dude, great drawings :) Lisa looks lovely in all of them.

I just love Lisa's eyes in the first pic *_*

I also love the second pic and the third pic isn't bad either.

These three pics go to my special gallery :D

Keep drawing, Gustavo ^^

@Lo?c and Tiago...

thanks!  :)

Freedom is indeed a great picture. I'm really glad to see a "finished" picture from you, Gustavo, although I don't dislike your scribbles. The diversity of your art shows us what a huge imagination and inspiration you must possess. That, in itself, is worth being proud of.

Please keep expressing your art here on the forums. I know it brings a feeling of happiness for many of us.

thanks a lot Capadde..., I am talking with sincerity... sadly I can't find words....

________________

This is a small scribble, but I am very happy (and proud) of draw this...  :love:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2l8KtdQ7Ek&feature=related

I told you, what i think of "revelation" pic (at DA), and i'll repeat myself - it's very emotional & symbolic picture (i've tired to repeat myself in my comments to your art... sorry for my poor eng. ;)). I like it a lot!

And... as for the last one (from your "Love impossible" series). Sketch looks wonderful (i've to admit, that Lisa with wings, especially, in your pictures, always looks so lovely :)). Waiting for applying colors…

I can work in the colors since the next week.... I need clean my house, the car, eat, sleep, play with my cat, work in the job, read my magazine, drink my green tea, and sleep again ...."thanks dude" :p

Wow, great pictures. I like how you draw pictures in both styles.
Uh clean the cat! Read you job! ... seriously, a colored version would be great.

ok boss!....  ;)
*gustavo take his optic tablet

P.D: thanks a lot by your comment .... :)

Very nice drawings, I think that all drawings are nice if they're made with lot of heart and soul, as in your case.
But I can't without saying that "freedom" is my favorite.  :)

Your drawings are so full of heartiness... it's terribly nice that you share your art with us.
I hope you never stop drawing :lisa:.

 :love: of course!!!

the "real love" is immortality, fire, desire and madness! the real love is infinite! and by this motive I can't stop of draw  :lisa:

hello hello hello!  :)

well in one of my fantasies I think in the concept of this scribble... sadly the original idea (in my imagination) is most beatiful but my power and skills  with the pencil are a bit "low" :p

anyway .. enjoy !  :p

post data: Lisa is very happy and free in this scribble! she like fly as a little bird between the sea and the sky...

well.. se ya laters LTS...

That's a really good one, Gustavo! I like the optimistic undertones, just what I needed for today. :lisa:

Thanks for your comment Roger .... I am very happy to hear your words ... I hope you're well on your side of the world ... I can not help .... but...

  :) I need send  you a hug and good wishes!  :) ...

gustavo and Lisa sends a hug...

Gustavo
Ayee, the picture reminds me of PowerPuffs so much :D
But jokes aside, this is a beautiful sketch. Are there any chances to see it finished? To see the same Lisa but with detailed wings, colored, some effects on blue water... it would make the picture look absolutely fantastic. Hope you have will and free time for finishing it, good luck... :)
P.S. Glad to see optimistic atmosphere on your pictures again!

of course my dear friend... :) But I need apply colors in "love impossible 20"... in this moment I only have finished the "flat colors"... long week U_U'' ...
gustavo is waiting the friday and the weekend  :lisa:

well.. today after of a day of work me is bored... yeah... very bored... ^_^''

*me take the digital camera...

(http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/white_dress.jpg)

Gustavo: sorry, but Lisa is shy ...  :red: :lisa: but she have a very nice white dress in my room  ;)

lisa: I am not shy, er  :rolleyes:... just a bit  :p .. me no like the white dress ....in special this type of dress !  :love: ... :star:

Gustavo,
How about make more photo with some other different angles, eh? :)

And you, Lisa… It’s a pity you don’t like this white dress!
Cuz, i must say that you’re looking nice in it… ;)

Looks like a wedding dress to me. ;) And she looks beautiful, too bad she's too shy to show her bright smile... :lisa:

She looks so cute!

Andreas, I agree with you: it looks like a wedding dress.

@Martin

hah hah hah hah hah hah hah  :D sure sure! 15 minutes please  :)

@Andreas:

you are right Mr Andres...It's a wedding dress!!!!!... :p

Lisa: yeah yeah ,me don't like the idea O_o please I need a red dress...
Gustavo: -_- ouch...

 :D

@Lo?c

Thanks a lot... you are right... She look cute, and talking with sincerity I search this dress to my lisa doll a lot of time ago...^-^

ok...

(http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/lisa_white_04.jpg)

Lisa: hee hee I have your pencil Mr Gustavo!  :).... I need my normal dress now!  :o
Gustavo: Lisa Lisa are you ashamed by the picture?  ;)
Lisa: me? er.. no no no :red: ... er.,Oh God...  :red: ..... yeah a bit!...
Gustavo: again ??? U_U''



Lisa is a shy girl....
(http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/lisa_night.jpg)
but very cute... :lisa: :star:

Aww, I knew she was smiling! And holding the pencil for you is very kind of her as well. :)

of course ...Mr Andreas... , she always help in my work, in special in a cold day... ;)

Update: uff.. Goodnight... thanks at God tomorrow is Friday... :)

-_- Zzzzzz...

Honestly... These eyeballs are frightening me by their crooked look :eek:

Lisa, why are you frightening me?
Don't do that anymore!

p.s.: yep... Best day in a week =)

well... I could not say much of this picture ....It's a bit old, and I do not think that contains many techniques or skills , it is only a single sketch, but with a very special touch ...  :lisa:

I really  only can draw on paper (I am a disaster in the optic tablet).... "a piece of copy paper, HB6 pencil and an eraser"...

*gustavo tries talk more, but the guy have a promise...

see ya laters  :)

Very cute, Gustavo. Very cute. No tengo nada para contar m?s. ;)

Hey, Gustavo! Last sketch looks very nice and... Am i only think, that the name “love impossible” is unsuitable to this pic? Cuz when i looking at dreamy expression of your face and Lisa’s eyesight (it’s like she asking you “What are you thinkin’ about, Gustavo?”), i believe that love is even very possible!

Although, the name of the sketch (and mystery of artist’s thoughts in this pic) makes me to see here some invisible notes of sadness, holdin’ in mind of that boy, which is sitting near with Lisa... And i don’t want to think so! I want to believe that i made a mistake, saying my last assumption. I want to think that here, in this picture, are only the notes of happiness.

Thanks for sharing! :) As always, can't wait for colored version (but don't push yourself! =)) of at least one of your last sketches...

See ya!


p.s.: a question - what does this symbol (from your text bubble) mean?

@Milchaos...

"Hey.... muchas gracias por tus palabras"    Es un gran honor de que me escribas en espa?ol,  y tambi?n lo es que puedas disfrutar mi arte..
"Hey.... thanks a lot by your wordsm" It's a honor to me.. (read your comment in spanish) ....

@Martin


pssst... I am sure that you (and some friends) can understand my answer....

my answer is: "a door"....

If do you need a explanation about this, usually  we can speak freely in the chat :) ... 

It's a-door-able. :) Too bad that I'm not the one in that star-ship, since I wouldn't have a pencil behind my ear, but a telescope in my hand. Such a cute pic, I love it! :love:

Lovely as always Gustavo. Very cute picture! You lucky devil!

@Thanks Roger :)    /  @Andreas: hee hee  ;)  maybe a day my friend, lisa love the astronomy,


I usually use this type of drawings to practice some techniques, in this case  attempting draw a lisapic  without outlines .... which is an option versus the vector drawing ...anyway is a very funny experience (because I love the quick pics)

*if do you like you can download the .wpe of this pic...

(ahh.. and sorry by my bad english)  ;)

Heh. Cute. Y'know, that dress on Lisa reminds me of the design I use for Maggie... only without the blue sleeves. :P

Just love this picture, Gustavo! =)
And this pink dress, imo, very suitable to her.
As said Gazmanafc, only twice more: very cute :)

btw, thanks for .wpe version. Im very curious and interested with watching of how you are drawing. =)

Cute picture, as usual! :love:

* Lo?c says: Thank you too Lisa! And thanks for sharing your beautiful work Gustavo! :)

Cute and colourful!   I enjoyed watching the .wpe of this, it was interesting to see how you worked with the layers.

@Gary, Janglewolf, L?ic and Martin: Thanks a lot...

___________________________

Well... This is the colored version of love impossible 20 (code name: Eden) , sadly I am a disaster drawing backgrounds.... in this pic I again draw without outlines, (0% vectors in Flash, Illustrator or Inkscape), this style is a bit "alternative", but anyway enjoy, if do you need the original PSD  file of this (big size), just send me a PM  :)


enjoy, but remember.... "ThE ArT iS FreEdOm"  ok?  ;)

Finally.... I was waiting for soo long =)

Anyway, i must say i like your new "w/o outlines" coloring style much more.
No words about Lisa - she's perfect (for me ;P)!
Must notice that the sky (and clouds) are looking great. The only thing i don't like in pic is TOO bright color of grass (painful for my eyes - i'm always against too bright colors in pics)...

p.s.: thanks for sharing, Gustavo. And, btw, i love the ribbons too on this pic :)

hee hee hee... sorry Bro, But I love the bright colors and the hiper satured gammas... :D ...I have two theories.... (it's my style or maybe I have a problem in the eyes :gigi: )

anyway Thanks a lot by your comment, This is a simple and primitive pic (2 days) , but I am happy by your words n_n

aarghh... maybe it's simple, yeah... maybe you made it in 2 days....

But for me the most important things in picture are originality and inspiration - these are priceless features and they are couldn't be calculated or gauged by time or any other unit of measure...
(sorry for my eng., i think you understood me)

Of course ....
again thank you,... I need  invite you to drink a beer to my house  :)  .... nevertheless believe that the distances are big between Russia and Chile...

Technically it did not have many pretensions in this pic, and you know  my motivations for taking the pencil, though the next opportunity I  tries to draw a picture more nice ... It's a promise ... :p

Post data: this is the link to download the .psd file..., maybe a is a good idea because the news sketchers can understand  and learn about the layers and the efects in the coloured pics...

http://rapidshare.com/files/164474043/eden.psd.html

Gustavo
Tanks for sharing the .PSD file.
I have a question: For coloring your pictures, do you draw by hand or do you use graphics tablet?

And I must say that I agree with matrixdll when he says:
When I see one of your picture, I really feel something and I think that it's the most important.

A very cordial drawing with bright colours. As Gustavo and matrixdll said befor me, I can feel something on your drawings too. In that case I feel peace and warmth and a little bit loneliness. Thanks...  :lisa:

Wow, Gustavo! The picture is the dream itself. So colorful, so innocent and peaceful... even the last Lisahater's heart would melt if he sees this :)
You said that the style was an alternative. I must say, it's a nice experiment, and I would like to see more pictures in this style. The only nitpick - few things should still be outlined (just a bit if possible), for example here - Lisa's toes and feathers. Everything else is charming, just amazing. I love it, please draw more. :)

P.S. Love is always possible, even if meeting isn't.

yeah I used a small tablet , model Genius G-pen 560 (23 USD in my side of the world)
L?ic, a grahics tablet is not necesary to apply colors in a pic...

This are two examples of pic made with a normal mouse...

http://realities.simpworks.com/image/554
http://realities.simpworks.com/image/693

The garphics tablet is just to  the speed in the work, is only a tool... I think that is most important to a artist is the sketch in the paper, with a pencil and a eraser...:)

______________

@ Lisa M.Simpson... Thanks a lot by your positive comment, your words are necesary to my life , and I am happy by this.. :)

______________

@ Serge,... hey Bro! thanks by the tip, I try draw more lisapics with this style, you are a good friend serge and you words are my energy to continue with the pencil...

______________

Well.. This is a weird pic... Lisa in a real beach, sun, swimsuits and a lot of sand.... the pic is made with vectors, .SVG  (Inskcape) , and the background is a surprise!  ;) ... the motive of this pic?  :D, a OC session with Martin days ago and a the next summer in my side of the world...

*download and enjoy ....  :p

Post data: 800x600 version , this is perfect as wallpaper  ^^

Thank you for the answer. Unfortunately, it seems that the Genius G-pen 560 is not sold in France, but I will maybe buy another model for Christmas.

PS: Your picture is cuter than ever :love:

It is.  :love:  But it looks like she has two left hands, maybe this should be fixed. ;)

Agreed with Andreas, Lisa's left hand looks wrong. The picture is good, but I'm not sure about the whole idea of combining the real world images with the drawn style (the difference in styles is very noticeable, although here it's not that bad because Lisa is alone). Also, Lisa's pearls look separated.

Two right hands :D, could be interpred like a sign in converse of two left hands, which is a saying in German ("to be all thumbs", I think this is the English component). On the first view it looks idiosyncratic, especially in case of our reality in the background and your simpson-reality in foreground which raise her much, but it isn't implicitly degressive. Thank you, your drawings make me feel better, also this time.  :D

Eh, yes, of course. Looks it was too late when I posted that. ;)

about the hands

D'oh! , Thanks by the suggestion, Sadly I am very lazy and is impossible fix the pic , anyway I tries have in mind your tips in next pictures  :lisa: :star:
___________________
about the background....

same here, but remember that "wow, real sand" is weird (and experimental) pic and me like the idea of a real background, other example is cherry lisa 4 special edition, the background in a japanese photo...

talking with sincerity I draw a background to this pic, but I delete the layer because I am very bad drawing backgrounds (by the moment)  :) , anyway thanks again, your comment and suggestions are very necesary to improve my style or skills with the pencil...
___________________

see ya laters dear LTS  :p

This is a old piece, and I don't know the motive by don't post this pic in LTS time ago (maybe my bad memory)...

Enjoy.... :)

(http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/serenidad.jpg)

Huh? But you did posted this before (i dont remember in which thread exactly, but i'm sure you did that)

Anyway, your pencil artworks are something!!! And this picture, imho, is one of your best. Not because of technical level or havin’ a highly-detailed background (like in your "she Is The Angel" or "Bitterness" pictures), but, FIRST OF ALL, very positive and bright tones of emotions, you had drawn in it.
Gustavo’s picture with smiling and happy Lisa – what else should we have to cheer up in sad moments of life? =)

This picture awake a jaunty delight. The Birds flying in the background and the loose clouds, the enormous sun, beach and sea, you could say it's typical, but it is somehow unique too. It's like she wants to show us that there's nothing between us and the idyllicly paradisiacal world, in which we all already live. Great!  :)

you are right , this is the message of the pic.. thank you very much for your comment, I would like to find words but it is not necessary ... ^^

gustavo is smiling ... all his collegues are  watching the scene... poor guy  ... :D

Elevaci?n ("Elevation") is a small sketch , there is much I can say about this  ;)... create your own interpretation... enjoy!

Hey, that's cool - add a Starfleet communicator, and she can easily replace Deanna Troi or Seven of Nine. :) I'm a bit confused about the black liquid drops, though, what is that supposed to be - blood!?

It is not blood.... It is black liquid, and exist a direct relation between this and the simbols in the floor

This pentacle represents Greek goddess Kore that's, translated - Girl. Persephone, as she is also called, is a goddess of the dead, the underworld and the fertility. So, is Lisa rising from the dead or the underworld to bring us love? Is there a connection to the fertility?
Mathematically, tha pentacle has the golden ratio that represents perfection.
Geometrically, it's the symbol for the fifth science, that acts for rationality, temperance and the truth seeking mind. Its five spikes --> :lisa: show the goodnesses like: intelligence, fairness, fortitude, frugalness and assiduity.

What would also apply to Lisa is mercifulness and equipollency...

I still wonder what this dripping black fluid substance means...

Could you reveal what this flying thing on the top of your picture is? :confused:

Now I have an idea: As the pentacle also represents the circuit of life and there's a connection through Kora to the four seasons of a year, could it be the spring, the rising or elevation of love and life, and those substance simply liquefied water? Then, those flowers at the heart would fortify this interpretation.

Wow you are very smart!  :eek:  and your theories is 90.% perfect ^^ ...


YEAH!  you are right ... :)  I am surprised ^^...  yeah the spykes in this pentacle have a relation with lisa...


 :eek: ...  yes, exist othe relation in this theme, the life of the mortals is a circle of life and death, to the human culture the woman is the holy simbol of the fertility.... but too the death... a direct relation with Kore (Persephone)... again I am surprised... you are very smart! 




the black liquid is the dark desire, mirror of the love and the sins, exist a conection between this and the sexuality... , and my words and this black and the real simbol of the black liquid have a relation with the colors of the flowers  and the color of the socks of lisa..(white and black) 



It is fire.... pssstt -...I can't talk about this ..secret  :p (but have a direct relation with the word "door", that I use in old comments or pics) 

 

maybe, I don't know  ;)


... Congrulations! , and thanks a lot by your theories about my sketch!  :star:  I am very happy by read your words. ^^

Post data: all the simbols is a resume of the title of the sketch "elevation"... the theme is a bit dark but nice ^^

Thanks...
I already wondered about her feet and if that's a mistake...  :D

It's like an analyis of her headdress, her 8 spikes could mean the five goodnesses (intelligence, fairness, frugalness, fortitude and assiduity) plus the truth seeking mind and those two I added (mercifulness and equipollency).

see ya LTS, goodnight ^^

Spot on.

Adorable.

*dies*

Gustavo
Lisa... 659 ?!?!?! O_____O
Okay... okay. I need a ticket to Mexico, a big cardboard box and some cookies to distract Gustavo's attention. Now.
Seriously speaking, she's adorable. :)

Very cute :!:

Looks like an enchanged original Lisa.
And is this the 659th picture you have drawn? :D

Dagdamor = Solid Snake? :P


I concur with what everyone else says. :P

@ Solid Snake Serge

O____o'' heh heh heh bad luck "Mr. Solid" you need return the tickets, I live in Chile  :o.. not in Mexico  .... and about your strategy..... hmmm, I don't know, I have a lot of cookies in the kitchen...

about the name of the pic: yeah.. number 659 in my folder, between scribbles, pictures and sketches... the time flies x_X anyway this is very relative...


Thanks by the comments and the positive words, me remember the old times... ^^ memories...  :star:

Post data: hmm maybe Serge need geography lessons...

 :D powered by Google  :gigi: (http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/bad_luck_mr_solid_snake.jpg)

Only 19 minutes to draw a so adorable picture?! :eek:
* Lo?c is jealous... ;)

Sorry for not commenting in awhile Gustavo,

Your drawings have brought me a smile. Love your canonic Lisa...... even though different from matt groening's model it its your style that makes this one of my favourite.

Thank you for your work :)

-Carl

Gustavo
Whoa, I'm really stupid :) For some reason I was sure you live in Mexico.
Heh yeah, I'd have to make a long way from one country to another.

I was never good at geography, but I don't remember making continental-size mistakes before... :red:

Omar lives in Mexico, maybe that contributed to your confusion. ;)

@Lo?c , Carl, Sergey Igitov and Andreas Roth....

Thanks by the comments...

_____________________________

I'll be honest .... I enjoy a lot with the expression of my feelings in a pic... I sincerely hope you enjoy it too ... There's little to say about the picture .... the silence is much better when you express your mind with a pencil and the solitude is a good companion if you understand her etheral whisper .... usually the silence of my room is solitude... but now is music,...now, each note fades among the whispers of my house ....

everything is full of life .... perhaps I too .... and as always, Lisa live in my empty heart as the flame and force of my  soul.
I've said this a lot of times .... The show must go on

see ya!

another drawing .... between two doors ... even though the topic is very innocent and sweet ... the scene is very real ... the site exists on a small beach in my city ... The nights are wonderful there ... everything is dark, and only the stars illuminate your eyes ....

Gustavo
Like always in such cases, I have no words, only feelings :)

Re: 1st picture - aww! The drawing is a bit "intimate", but the emotions are so strong. Well, at least she made a decision, hope that answered "someone" will make her happier.

Re: 2nd picture - the chosen perspective has made me smile a bit for the obvious reason :) but the picture has something that I was eager to see for a long time - to see how her wings are actually connected to her body... this probably sounds stupid, but that's how I am... thanks for showing me that :) and the scene is very romantic, too bad I cannot see Lisa's expression, although I can guess it. Wonderful picture, and like on some of your previous works, you did amazing job with the feathers, very realistic.

Wow...well,er, your recent picture " I need you" kinda tugged at me a little emotionaly that I had to say something :(...

I havn't been active around the sketchbook part of LTS for sometime and I guess this has drawn me back a bit. I have just 20 minutes before the end of my lunch break and I feel I should say a few words on your art...

It's SO good to see your work continue and progress, develop for such a long time, and not to stop! Your pictures are always presented in this romantic, beautiful light with a lot of detail and passion gone in to them...
I also feel you've improved in areas such as backgrounds, scenery, and composition.
So, overall, although I don't say it enough I do keep up with your work and love seeing how it develops over time :)

Our Gustavo, like always are his paintings full of expressiveness...
To the first, there is not much to say - like you said. But the second is awesome. The panorama is capital, her great wings looks fluffy as her head, but have some skipy tops. Every moment I see her flying away...
 :)

Gustavo.

Fantastic drawings as usual.

"I Need You" something struck me with extreme emotion when looking at this picture. I was also listening to the following track when i looked at this picture. I found myself staring at the picture during listening. I can imagine he listening to the same track laying there.

The Fray - Look After You
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=1iYOOuJLuaY 

THe 2nd picture is absolutely and stunningly beautiful, both in its sentement and in the quality of the drawing.

That is one drawing that would look awesome coloured.

@Sergey : Thanks bu your sincerity... me too imagine the wings of lisa in fussion of her own body, this sketch is only similar at "she is THE angel" (a old scribble avaible in the SR gallery)....

http://realities.simpworks.com/image/501

-----thanks by your comment.

@Rachel:  Rachel... thanks by your words, ... I can't find words (as always) , (maybe is my bad english or my slow brain, but is reality) ^-^''
I am thankful....  :star:

@ Lisa M. SImpson: "our Gustavo" er... :p no no .. I am free as a worm, the word "our" is as a jail to me ..(giggles) .... just kidding ... ThAnKs A lOt .... I am curious... what is your real name? ^-^'' 

@ Carl: mr Carl I am happy by read your words... (pssst thanks by the link, the lyrics of the song are very nice) I sincerely hope that you will feel better ... :)

@ All: (shy guest or official member) Thanks by watch my pics, sketches and scribbles, I am a bit slow with the art , but I have all the life to practice... (Gracias por observar mi arte, Yo s? que soy un poquito lento aprendiendo , pero tendr? toda la vida para practicar... Tu ErEs La FueRZa PaRa ConTInUaR n_n) ...

_____________________________________

well... I'll be honest with you ... my soul is depressed (because a small problem of "comunnication" :/... but I'm bored of thinking about problems ... gray day and I do not care ... because I am learning to fly ... and sadly is needed think about my own future... but me feel terribly lonely .... well It is the life...

Gustavo  :D
Do you really want to know that?

Is your new sketch a parody of Child of Darkness?

yes... just curiosity...   ;)


No, because I can't read stories in English... I only can read and write with the help of a dictionary, but by the moment is impossible read a story... any similarity is just coincidence .... n_n

I'm so sorry I haven't commented your art, but I've been really busy lately x_x Anyway, your sketches are all great, I have no personal favourite. If I really had to choose one, I wouldn't be able to. They're all great :P

Waiting to see more! :D

thanks by your sincerity Mr Tiago...

edit: well ....me take a break to eat a sandwishe (not vegetarian, me like the meat) and drink my green tea... but before me draw this super quick lisa in flash mx (6)

Don't eat that it's poisoned :P

That super simple Lisa made me laugh. Lisa doesn't look very happy, but the style makes the picture funny in some way.

I fail to see any similarity between the latest picture and CoD :/ In Gustavo's picture, Lisa does look like a heroine, great job by showing that side of her soul and character... in the story, she held a sword only once, and was very scared in that scene, it wasn't a heroic act, it was an act of despair... anyway, I like this picture, even if it looks unfinished and also rushed in some places. Hope you will finish and color it someday!

Yeah, certainly but in both you can "find" a sword and the "evil"...

To the last drawing: It looks funny through this jolty line management... but I like it.  :)

oops   ;) ,  expert eye eh? ^^... you are right , and by this motive I take the pencal and draw "heroismo 4"....  enjoy...

Same here  :) , but I am happy by read your words "J" .  ;) ...

^^ *lisa , la guerrera de la luz

You looking forward to the PSP game Dissidia Final Fantasy then?

Because Lisa looks so much like the Warrior of Light (http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/7/7c/Dissidia_Fighter.JPG) who will be representing the original Final Fantasy game. Same pose as from the Final Fantasy Origins Box art too (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/5/55/Amano_Origins.jpg)

Gustavo
You know I'm not an expert :D but I try to not only enjoy the picture (and that picture was good enough), but also to help the artist, I don't like posting just "I liked it" or "I didn't like it", I hope artists appreciate feedback too, and maybe my words will be useful... anyway... :)
The last picture is great, yay to fantasy worlds! I see some similarity to Frank's style (or maybe that's just my imagination), but very good composition, nice job with Lisa's clothes, like the dragon too.

Bingo!  ;) you are right n_n me copy the idea of this beatiful image, and if you can check the final words (in spanish) they says: "lisa la guerrera de la luz" = "Lisa, the warrior of Light ....  :p

a motive in special... I am playing FF IV in Nintendo DS .... (a bit late , because I need wait the spanish versions of the games) ;)

Lisa: Gustavo love FF , sice the 8 bits

___


I know and me is thankful because by this motive I can improve my skills n_n...


just your imagination

Heh. I wanna get IV on the DS too, but III comes first since it is the last remaining core Final Fantasy I have not completed. (Well, I've not completed XII either but that just plain sucks)

And I guess that would be Castle Corneria in the background then. :P

He he, it reminds me on Lord of the Rings but I have one thing to criticize and that is her chin, I mean, where is it?  :gigi:

And if that dragon would fire spitting then - for me - it would be perfect...  :)

In spite of everything it looks lovely, now you should colour it, a cool colour for her armor and sword and warm colours for her skin, hair and cloak and maybe clothing too. The background should be dip in light mist... *sigh* That would be a good drawing...  :D

@ Lisa M. Simpson

Thanks by the comment, but is impossible apply color in this sketch, because I am working in other project in this moment (to christmas) .. thanks by understand ... :)

___________

if do you like too, you can check a lisapic called "delirium" in my DA gallery, (but caution, mature content) , It is a poetic image, but a bit suggestive or erotic... please check if you have 18 years or more ...

Two news quick pictures,  :) , I hope that do you like both works .... "love impossible 22", with the usual theme of this saga, .... and "cool lisa 2" , lisa with a nice black rocker suite  :D...

bye bye!

I like them both, you know Gustavo, somehow I like all of your works.  :D
But particularly cool Lisa, because she is looking lovely in another dress, not that I find her standard dress ugly or insipidly... 

And where can I find your DA gallery?

"Thanks by this solitary comment , with your words I can continue drawing ... "    :)

Gustavo
LOL, Gustavo... :) :lisa:

Anyway, the last two scribbles. Love both of them, they don't even ask to be finished as I see them, they look extra sweet. The first one caught my eyes more, because it has interesting plot and you pictured yourself too. It's amazing to see such pictures, when artist shows his thoughts, explains his feelings without words, and you can understand them. Even the fact that you have visual similarity to Lisa (this can be explained with the style used, but I think that's not a coincidence) tells something.
All in all, it's a very sweet drawing, made me cheer up, thanks you for sharing it.

Lisa M. Simpson
Just follow the (http://www.lisa-simpson.net/Themes/default/images/www_sm.gif) icon under Gustavo's avatar. :)

x_X what!? I don't know, talking with sincerity I am no very similar at lisa: first I am a boy.. Not a girl x_X  :p, second, my hair and skin are of other color; third: me like eat meat (in special barbacues)  :D..

maybe I am similar in the size of the fingers n_n ... short fingers -___-''
___________

well, jokes aside , I am happy by "cheer up" to you with this lisapics.. This is my work and this is a pleasure to me because your smile is my own smile... :)

Gustavo
Visual similarity on the drawing, I mean. :)
And correct me if I'm wrong, but that similarity been drawn on the picture, should mean nothing but inner similarity in the real life, you and Lisa being the soulmates. At least that's how I got that, and I see nothing wrong in that, we all here have much in common with Lisa herself, otherwise we wouldn't be here...

True... Love (in any type of it) is when you find a part of yourself in someone, and let/give all remained to this someone.

In the "Love impossible" pic it looks so touching, how Lisa is holding the hand of a lil' boy... Most of all i like this "out of this world" like expression of her dreamy face (especially eyes... the eyes are hypnotising  :eek:)

Thanks for posting such nice pictures, Gustavo... And, btw, again, merry christmas to you, bro =)

The shadows in 'cool_lisa_02' are great. I think I'll use it as a model for drawing shadows in my next pictures. :maggie:
And 'love_impossible_22' is a sweet picture, I like it :love:

@Sergey.
your are right.... I have a special admiration by Lisa too.

@Martin.
Thanks a lot Bro! , I always take care in draw her eyes (of Lisa) , beceause me think that the eyes are the very specials...

@Loic.
Is a honor read your words about "cool_lisa_02" ... I am very thankful by this... ^^

@All...
see ya laters eh? ;)

 ;) ... This is a gift to a special member of this forum... "J"...(or Lisa M.Simpson). This pic is based in the original avatar of the member...my friend, thanks a lot by your support in all this time...

:)

Thank you Gustavo, you are a real friend!
Thanks for your fast work - now it looks lovely and really indescribably adorable!  :D
Thanks again - I will never forget this. 

awwie...do not worry ...
I consider you as my friend too, despite the distance ... The destiny has brought together many people in this place (LTS), and everything has a reason (or motive)... whenever we can grow even more and be better spirits ... and accept our mistakes and understand our differences ... The most important are the memories ...

and after of our lifes, maybe this memories are alive in a corner of our heart... lessons of life...

"Durmiendo" (or "sleeping" in your lenguage)  in a quick picture. made with OC 4.5, a very sweet lisa...she as angel is sleeping in peace, because the problems of our life are only humans fantasies... please enjoy... (and caution with the infarct eh)  ;)

Where should I start, by the peacefulness, the wonderful Lisa herself, by her soft wings that seems like pillows, her pacific mien, by the thin cover that indicate warm temperatures - like in summer, the warm colours or the pristine whiteness that even her wings get a grey shading...
Or the feelings - happiness and jollity.

Yeah Gustavo, you manage it once again - to cast out worries and headaches even if they will come back for sure in a little while. Like you said they're just fantasies, spawns of our morbid society - better better, faster faster - (and if you really have to act fast - debilitating tranquillity)...
Simply want to doze off and awake there with her together.

Thanks by your comment ^^

She looks so innocent... so cute and adorable (as usual :D)...
Your art always carry a lot of hope and happiness Gustavo...

It's funny because what I like in the 'Groening's version' of Lisa is the intelligence, the maturity but also the sadness of the character. And what I like in your version is the innocence and the happiness.

Anyway, I'm always happy when I see a new drawing from you. So please keep drawing! :love:

thanks by your positive comment, your words are very important to me and to lisa too ...

bye bye  ^^ and goodnight ...

Fully agree with this.

And to your new pictures: *sigh*, what a wonderful weather!
To the Lisa picture: obstinación = stubbornness? To make the world a better place? A pretty drawing. If you find something more, share it with us!

ok! :star:

Lisa says (singing), a bit sad but with faith in the future... :)

sekaijuu no uso ni kimi ba kizu tsuki nagara, kegare nai kokoro o tashi gameteiru shounen no nioi knife ni kaete...BOY, kimi ha utsukushii kyou ki no youna yuutsuna aozora :love:

___バイバイ  (すべての日本のファンに敬礼) ^-^

笑い  :D


_____(perdon es un dibujo rápido, no me le he puesto atención in los detalles) pero de todas formas disfruta eh? n_n - (sorry, this is a quick picture, and by this motive the details and the lines are a bit rough)  :) but enjoy eh? n_n

What lang is it? Could you give a translation, plz?
As for the "Aozora_no_Knife" pic, me imagine how Lisa is dancing in some open-air night club placed on summer beach, right near the sea (just like in Sochi city, for example... it's about 300km far away from my town)...
Very cute picture, Gustavo! ^^ I like it a lot... :love:
The only sign of sad motive of this pic possibly could be that Lisa has turned away from us, hiding her face... But i think she's just dancing too twisty, so she turned only for a moment :) For me this is a happy mood picture.

And, by the way
Wow... Is that how your beach looks in winter? :eek: Nice...
I hope you'll not against if i'll post a picture of first snow in my town (funny thing: it fell out in the morning of 25 December :)). Although snow had been falling not too long, but still, it’s first for this month…

Current weather: -7°C and, thank God, no cold wind - every element of the landscape doesn't move, looks like time is frozen =)

1) My street (Two-storeyed houses, town’s suburb – very peaceful place);
2) Small river crosses the whole street, dividing it on two sides;

sure... ! :)    ...lisa says: (english) : "In this lying world, you're the moon, but at the same time, a scar,Not immortal, but you supplement my heart.The boy's smell, the knife returns... Boy,  you are beautiful, madness's way is like the blue sky.

btw: this is the part of a song...


you are wrong bro... because in my side of the world is summer in this moment ^^ :)
_____

thanks a lot by the pictures, me like the snow, because in my city , the snow does no exist ^^... and thank sby your comment too

Can you post a link of it (from Youtube, for example)? Or at least, the name of the song...

oops... My mistake!  :red:
Anyway, when u have a winter in your part of the world, does the weather change too much?

sure...

the lyrics: http://www.animelyrics.com/game/bustmove/bamkitty.htm (english and japanese).
the song (original) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVYc5YI9RYc
alternative version (in english) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcLox-o5GKU&feature=related (the lyrics are a bit different, because this is a american alternative version)...

this is a old song... but very nice, me like a lot...in the last pic, lisa is dancing this song  :love:... the quality of the voice is excellent because sony music japan search this artists to this game...and this old game is very funny, me remember 9 years ago (because me play this videgame with 14 years) , beatiful days of my childhood....

btw, I love this melody ... ^-^''



the winter and the summer are very similar in the temperature : always between 20 and 30 Cº at the 12:00 pm, the problems are the clouds, in the winter a lot, and as I live in a desertic place the first hours of the day are a bit cold (10 or 14 Cº) ...and in special the nights...^^

Gustavo
Okay, English mixed with Spanish is okay to me, but Spanish mixed with Chinese is a bit too much for my eyes... "understood: nothing" :p/me looks at the picture with no knife.
I still don't understand it, but it's wonderful! The ribbon on Lisa's right arm should be fixed, probably... or maybe better not. :)

Sergey, Thanks by your positive comment and by your sincerity ... this is very important to me...

lisa says: あなたのコメントに感謝 .... (seconds after) .... d'oh....Благодаря  :)


*Abrazos,抱擁, объятий, Hugs...   :star:  (sorry by my bad russian) n_n

You're one of the people I know whose art is extremely undervalued...you're such a good artist and not many people know that, but I'm so glad I found your art on DA and keep up the excellent work :)

You put Lisa into your own amazing style, and it takes talent to do that- which you have got lots of :D

Graz...my friend..., I am not "extremely undervalued" =) ... maybe I am not popular in other places but is because I only need post my lisapics with my "family" and this place is LTS  :love:, I love this forum by a lot of motives... to me is NOT important the fame of sketcher , because my objective is only draw my feelings...(and open the mind and wings of lisalovers)  ...  and remember my age too... the life is long and I have a lot of time to training ....^-^''  :lisa:

I am very Thankful by your words... this is a honor to me...  :star:

Tut! But, how do you mean that? For my part, I love his drawing!
I think this is simply "Outsider art"  ;)

When you think about the places that Gustavo posts his art, Graham (Graz = Graham BTW) is right. They get posted on very few places, and thus are exposed to a very limited group of people. Gustavo, you should start posting your art on more sites and forums. :P

The last one Aozora no Knife while it is good for most part (I like the dress) you can only get so much from the back. What about the front. I'd like to see Lisa's face. :P

I have been thinking the same for a while now. We all have our preferred forums and sites. (Gary ought to know where I prefer hang our.) But maybe it would be a good idea for all of us to look a bit “over the fence.”

hmmmm.... I do not know what to say .... I prefer share my lisapics only in LTS and DA...

if do you like... you can call me : "Shy" .. but by the moment this is my own option  :)

What would you suggest?

Just, that people sometimes looked a bit on other forums then they usually do.

Leif..Thanks by the suggestion...but  maybe I can look or post in others places in a "future"...n_n

Yeah, but I meant in which forums?

But I don't want to discharge it here. If Gustavo likes this place and even if he will only realease his art here, so let him be. I'm shorelessly thankful for this!

Better one good friend as a "tokenistic affinity", isn't it?

Well, that is really up to people self to decide. I am just suggesting that people sometimes look by other places. Like I have just (re)started posting some drawings here and at Simpworks.

If that's how you feel...of course I respect your opinion, my friend :)
But you have talent, and lots of it...your Lisa pics are beautiful, and I hadn't seen anything like them before I accidently saw one on DA one day. Others would love them as much as I do. Lisa herself would be proud^^

By undervalued I just meant that not enough people are appriciating your special artwork ;) but I'm so glad I found this forum so I can continue to enjoy them :)

Btw, thank you for the very nice comments :D I will do you a request pic if you like :D

The end of this year.... and me finished this picture...with security my last pic of the 2008 :) ....

"Te necesito" (I need you) .... Lineart: InkScape (SVG standar), Colors: Photoshop CS2, sRGB, 24 bits.... 300ppp, original size 5833x4250 px (weight 144mb)... blah blah blah   ;)

I prefer say: She is lisa, waiting between the darkness of your room... :lisa:


see ya and take care! n_n

Post data: Enjoy! :)

So soft and gentle, and full of atmosphere....really nicely done again :D

Yeah, that would be wonderful! :D


My dear Gustavo ;) This is awesome, as Graz said - very soft and gentle, and somehow sensual, especially throgh this black thin cover and her eyes - I love them, they're fascinating and magnetic - lyrically dreaming! :love:. This mobile phone looks realistic and plastic - I think you made an effort, didn't you?  I can nearly feel her fluffy hair... *sigh* Equal how many words I said - it's hard to discribe art - they could even derogate it...

You should know I'm not "adulating" you, you really deserve that homage!

Technical details. I sometimes do find the technical details interesting. They can sometimes also be an inspiration. Nevertheless. What matters is the finished result. This is an excellent drawing.

Ohhh, her eyes! I love her eyes - they are like blue crystals, and if you look inside them, they are endless like the blue sea. The black blanket is quite unusual for Lisa, but black always gives you a nice contrast to her yellow skin. As usual, this is also full of symbolism again; she's reaching out to her cell phone, waiting for someone to "rescue" her from being lonely, eaten up by the black oblivion, while the red pillow both represents her usual outfit and the love that she's still holding to.

Wow, you guys write such powerful, thoughtful posts...this isn't what I have seen anywhere else  :love:

@ALL (english speakers members or guests)

Thanks by the support in all this time... I hope draw more lisas this 2009 .... as always I can't find words, and because my memory is fragile is impossible remember ... ;) .. anyway I continue with Lisa... :lisa:

caution: weird lisa pic... (crossover)...  ;)   .... in special to the members that like the videogames,...
a motive in special to draw this sketch? ... no nothing.. just a bored day, and me remember this game...oh too the musical theme... if do you like the jazz melodies.. enjoy...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZogCFmMerA&feature=related

....  :p bye bye...

Yeah, weird :gigi:
Is that a fighting game?

Gustavo
It's the first time that I heard about this game :gigi:
But your Lisa is unusual and cool :)

Lisa M. Simpson
After a google on the title of the video, it's seems that the game is a fighting game called Fatal Fury (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatal_Fury_(series)). But I'm not sure because I didn't know this game. :rolleyes:

@Loic.

friend... but this is one of the most important games in the history of the Arcade ... KOF since 1994 (made by SNK) ....Terry Bogard is a legend and the principal character of the Fatal Fury saga.

*me remember the NEO-GEO...and the Hiper Neo Geo64... (Thanks at God exist the MAME emulator :p)
awwie memories... my nick "CCD!" in my nick in this type of games since 1996...I am a real old fox in the NEO GEO  :D  (why CCD!?... is other story) n_n

if do you like , you can play this game, his gamplay is very single (and hard, if you are good with the skills of the characters, is only a "big game of fight, and a real classic) ... :) , if do you have a PSX (or his emulator) fatal Fury Wild Ambition is a excellent option...

well.. you can call me "old"  ;)  if I don't play playstation3 or Xbox 360... but I love the old videogames...(i have a real NES, 8 bits in the living room, and my dear PSX).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e29CBXfXQ6k .. :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNmZ_JeDnEs

in this moment you can play KOF XII (2008)

___hmmm hey a moment! x_X my thread is to talk about Lisa ,  but not to talk about the "old school" of the gamers... hee hee sorry ...  :red:, the time flies...  :D


(http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii115/gustavoccd/terry_089.jpg)

"ok" ;) Thanks by the comments  :D .. pssst , but I am right eh? Lisa look very sweet, strong and with a lot of audacity  in the last pic  :p

nothing special, ;) this is the color version of the last scribble... (open canvas 1.1, 15 minutes, 3 layers) .... n_n

"Alternative love" , is a alternative pic , of a alternative universe...

I could not accurately explain the story behind the picture ... this is to your own interpretation .... However, freedom is one of the foundations of love ...

Gustavo
I'm not good at interpreting pics, but...
Who is that person behind Lisa (I'm confused with the proportions, they look female to me) - is that Maggie (hairstyle is very similar), or... you? :) In the first case, I'm puzzled... Maggie admits Lisa in love, and Lisa neglects that and alienates her :o no, both parts are impossible. If that's you, then... then I hope the story will continue in more bright way. :) Technically the sketch is good, a bit overdone with symbols, but the scene is very dynamic, which is unusual for you - you tend to draw "static" situations more. Unusual move, and I like how it turned out. Sweet (although a bit sad) drawing, please keep it up.

Maggie, and her feelings about Lisa is the principal motive of the name of the picture...anyway is just a alternative reality.

Interesting, interesting ... a very emotional scene ... pathetic eyes ... "end of the world"(symbolically)... maybe a "dismissive" love from one side but definitely upsetting from both. And two butterflys which stays in a complete contrast to those girls, somehow they show an example. Sympathetic feelings, that makes a essence to a more "filled" character.
Gustavo, will you colour it?

heh, heh .. Thanks by your comment , "J" I don't know if is possible apply colors in this sketch in a future, because I am working in the colors of other pic...  :) ... anyway I need fix a little problem in the web, and in this moment , I can't find free time... Thanks by understand me ...and of course , a lot of hugs my dear friend  :star: ... again , thanks by post your comment...

bye bye (8)
