mmmm Go-Go juice....try some apple juice Wink
*ahem*, anyway, now it's my turn to comment Tongue

Lisa's Bad Dream Lisa + Fire = GOOD! Big Grin Well, in my mind it just does, so guess I'm bias but the picture, although incomplete, looks qutie impressive to me, so I really hope you complete it one day.  The composition is very original.

Unfinished A fav of one of your slightly older pieces of work, again, although unfinished, it is still a great sketch Smile Bart seems to look quite confused as to what to do with a sleeping Maggie in his arms Gigi It's very cute.

Mind F*ck I don't think I'll ever understand this  Confused It's a good pic, and it's always nice to see something different, however, I like most people find something quite "sinister" behind it. I don't think I've ever seen you look so angry  Eek I think it's possibly the eyes though you said you were attempting something "anime-ish" I can see where you were getting at.  The only real nitpick I have really is your hand seems a bit..."simpson like"  Confused or it might just be me.  I don't exactly find drawing hands easy but I find the palm is more oval shaped rather than circle....kinda hard to explain but all I can advise is, to look at your own hands whilst drawing so you get the idea Gigi

Bum My first thought was, "random" when seeing this,..just never expected you to draw something like it I suppose.  It's a good try though it still seems to look flat but don't let this put you off at all. I think it's just the clothes, could do with more tone shading, to make the folds and creases look more in depth.  I'm not exactly brilliant advice at this since I kinda feel, like I suggested in mind f*ck, that looking/studying what you see in front of you, or around you, and putting that to practise really helps. I remember a few years back having to study folded material over and over, till I got kinda sick with it, but it was great practise as it's helped me a lot for the work I've been doing for art in school recently. Don't feel you have to do this though, but if you're bored, or have time, just draw what you see around you, and try to loook and observe in depth, or close up to objects, don't have to finish either. Just a tip  Lisa

Anyway, I'll stop rambling now Tongue

Overall, it's nice to see more art from you Mat, so, keep it coming  Gigi

Had quite a nice chunk of life on the personal side of this guy 'Casper' lately. So no more depressing un-egotistical feather mouthed tat. Thank god for that.

I managed to draw a simple sketch in a lesson today. Its probably too simple to be worth posting but I'm probably better off starting small, so I can practice ze colours again. Heres the sketch for now. Once coloured, will post it here.

She wants to make this moment standing in front of sun longs forever and asking him to stop there, I suppose? Smile
She is looking a bit too tall here. But maybe she would look so from such view - she stands higher than spectator eyes.
At first I thought she is in trousers under her dress Eek , but this belt... So, I think this spikey border is on her jacket, nice detail.

The Sun and her pose are very good! Little sunny with a big one Smile Not bad at all, keep it up!

Maybe she's casting the "Fireball" spell. Wink
LISA: Whoa, it appeared to be bigger than expected...

Jokes aside, it's a nice sketch, I like it! I wrote "Lisa" above, not "Maggie", but she could be Maggie as well, because she has a central top-most spikey. Casper, you did a good job picturing Lisa, drawing characters from unusual angles (and full back is one of them) isn't easy, but you did it well. Now color! Smile

Unusual and interesting!   Is it the sun, a fireball or an approaching meteor?   I like the fact that you've incorporated Lisa's dress spikes into her clothes, and as Serge said, it's a tricky angle but it works well.   I can't figure out if her legs are a little short or if it's just due to what she's wearing.   Her hair spikes could also use some adjustment to even things up on the right hand side (bottom two, particularly where they meet her neck).   I'm just imagining that sun/meteor in colour - should be pretty awesome!

Nice drawing! The flames are nicely done, as is Lisa's hair from behind. Hmmm... I suppose Lisa has given up her aspirations of controlling the birds, and instead tried to control the sun? Wink

Look at that hand lying there
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take
To still this burning in me?

Oh my, what an interestign picture.

My idea is a bit more apocalyptic... comes to mind that she's telling a comet to stop just moments before it hits the Earth. And who knows, she is Lisa.. so if there's one last thign to do, this is it! Smile As i said the picture is interesting, one of the cases where the idea/plot wins above the technical goodies. But even in that aspect, the pic's well done, the hair pikes look good as the added layer of dress on Lisa.

Good Work, i like this very much Smile

Did he try to touch my hand,
Or is my mind playing tricks on me?
Do you think he hears us cry?
Does he understand

Thanks very much guys... I must say:
Hmmm... I suppose Lisa has given up her aspirations of controlling the birds, and instead tried to control the sun? Wink
... thats such a good idea! Big Grin hehe! XD


It is actualy intended to be the sun, but it seems like a lot of my pictures theres (un-intentional) double meanings. Its a stab at global warming, Lisa trying to make the world stop polluting before theres hell to pay.

I love the idea of it being a comet though, her telling it to stop before impact. Smile

... I also love Serge's fireball explination!  Gigi


I must be a lazy artist... I draw lines then you guys have to make up the plot. Tongue
Anyway, hopefully will be coloured before next week. Thanks again!

Hi again, talking about your art...
Lisa's Bad Dream Very unusual and dreamy indeed, to see the flaming tree among the waters - it must be so unbelievable, I can understand Lisa here looking in awe with her protruding eyes at this scary scene. Maybe if I can listen to Agalloch someday I'd comprehence itmuch better, since this kind of art (influenced by musics or something like that) demands you to be at least familiar with artist' possession. And it remind's me mysterious of my own picture I never finished that contains Lisa and other simblings that standing knee-deep in the water...
Unfinished That is very nice too, since it contains more than one character it takes much more efforts from an artist. That quite unusual family scene (mostly because of Bart Smile ) and all the characters so calmly and charming. I like this pic!
Mind F*ck a difficult one, I understand. Sometimes all things going to dement you and that's a perfect example of creation something in that mood. The Bum has not caused in me any emotions, sorry. To see a man who's felt so low is not a perfect sight I want to see, but the efforts of artist must be  appreciated and I can say that it was a nice try.
And the last pic at present day by you - Stop the plot is so unusual as energze, the sun seems just to burn Lisa o_o, so it great. That really nice idea at Lisa with that role of stopper of practically impossible thing (like the sunrise) so suits her usual temper! And the alternative outfit becomes her in very good way.
Hope to see more someday.
