Gustavo, as usual, your style is brilliant... I wish I ever could draw like this Smile
Both pictures are nice in their own way... no need to talk about the first one Smile Lisa is beautiful on it, and the coloring is very impressive and cheerful. Heh, I love it!

The second pic is sad and for some reason makes you think about your own inner world... *sigh* she's tied to the ground, right? I'm not sure about that... If so, I believe this metaphor indicates your own state. I hope things will be better in time, Gustavo, no matter why you feel tormented. Lisa is an angel, she shouldn't make you suffer. Smile Very impressive picture, and thanks for sharing... I think I will look at it again many times in the future...

Gustavo, you just stole a breath out of me, speacially on that first pic.  They are both really nice, but there is something on that first one that made it feel like part of an animated short of some sort. I dont know the posibilities are endless.  To what or what is she singing?  Adorable , just adorable.       The second pic appears like if she was in pain, I cant really explain why, but thats my first impression out of it.   Keep them coming, man!

Wow...

The first picture is, very unique. She seems to be praying for somthing, possibly for the well being of someone/somthing. The angle a good way to portray this picture.

The second picture... whe-heee, you know you could write lyrics for Slipknot Wink
You've worked very on getting this right, and its payed off. She looks like she's fighting within herself... I can see 3 sets of wings. The classic Angel wings, some other spread out wings, and evil wings. Seems like its raining, as everything is wet and dripping. Maybe its the flood of her tears in the heavens of her mind?... *head explodes*

Very good pictures Smile

2 new drawings…. and nevertheless not yet I can draw an Lisa with a smile…. the smiles are a so pure gesture that sometimes I cannot obtain…. a smile is an exit at the moments of desperation… and the anguish that we found sometimes….

Aw, nice pictures once again. Smile
I liked the first one more, it's dreamy and happy. Heh, did anyone notice there are two butterflies on it? Wink Just kidding, it's a beautiful sketch. I look forward for the colored version!
The second picture is technically very well, too. I didn't understand why Lisa is so sad, but her pose is cute. Smile

Natural Love:
 Cherry Lisa again! Big Grin You've drawn it very well. Your style is deffinatly becoming a lot more, fine-tuned with the Groening style. She is very on model here.
I'm always impressed by how you but so much detail into some of your pictures.

She Is My Friend:
 This is nice... if you excuse the saddening face. Its hard to see why she's upset. Maybe being overworked or somthing.
Regardless, its a very well drawn picture Smile

For the first picture: A bright light has shined through her life. After the longest time of trying to contain it, she cannot anymore. She seeks contentment. From an angel just like her.

There is so much emotion in your pics, Gustavo... I would like to be able to express that in words, but you already do it with images. In this thread, with your pictures, I reached the happiest of joys and the deepest of grieves... Ah, man, stop tugging at my heartstrings so hard Smile

I don't want to comment the pictures technically, although I can see improvements with each one. Also, I wanted to suggest you to trace them, or offering to make it myself... but I think that the "sketchy" nature of the pics, with the pencil dust and dirt being actually a part of them, adds to the rough feelings of 'em. So in the end, stay as you are and never change Big Grin

Hello, Gustavo.
Destiny
That's very impressive!
I'm charmed by it's atmosphere of pain and poetic sensuality. That's right, I like the way you draw Lisa, in spite of the fact that she feels far not well here. I'm sure it's like a birth of a new creature, a birth of an Angel. I'm look at her blossoming out wings, she's like a newborn butterfly just finding its wings. The blood flowing down, her face, the unknown land around her - all of this as a confirmation of her silent suffering. The cordages binding her to the ground do not give her to rocket high into the sky to decrease all that pain she got. Or maybe protecting her from suicide, when she dash downward to the earth.
I would to say you are the Master of symbolism. Could I ask you what you were inspired by drawing this picture? There's some romantic words presents on pic, so I just thought you gave it from somewhere. Or it was your rich imagination?

Enlightenment
That picture is very good and pleasant to the eye. The colours are selected remarkably :-) Half growing up Lisa looks charmingly. Flowers, ribbons - all done in order to underline her unearthy beauty.

Natural Love
Well, the picture reminds me another your picture, which I've seen on SR, called "Light of my spirit" if I do not wrong. As well as that picture, the one represented here also is very handsome. Fabulous and fairy-tale.

She is my friend
I think, you represented here Lisa in a library at which, possibly, you used to go (okay, don't laugh at me. To walk at a library is not very shamefully, especially, if you are the Lisa-fan). The pic is interesting enough, but I can't say anything certain about it. Lisa is pretty good. Why does she cry? (does she cries at all?) Maybe because the real friendship implies the same mutual exchange of feelings?

By the way, you're one of my favourite artists drawin' Lisa on their own. I've seen many of yours pictures and that's impressed me.
So, please, continue to fluster my imagination by your wonderful pictures!

Common remark (don't be angered)
Man you know, your pictures very nice, and your style is very positive. But there's one thing that I can't accept in your tracery :-). This is hints on femininity of Lisa. (I mean the "open legs/short skirt"-style of imagine) She is little girl for me in spite of fact that I personally also drew her in adult condition. Possibly, my life perception is here in guilty (maybe, because I uphold the slightly "puritan" views on life, heh ;-) ), but who said we all must have identical tastes? So continue your work in that key when I'll always look after you. :-)

Don't change it! That's what I always admired at your pics - although Lisa is portrayed as a somewhat fragile being (in a good way), she always has a definite personality, and to that personality also belongs the feminity aspect. As I explained in my introductory posting, the message "You are Lisa Simpson." has a special meaning for me, and it somewhat defines my life as well.

You cannot deny yourself, and regardless how hard you try, you're always yourself - so why not live your life and learn from the struggles you have experienced? It defines you as a person, and as an individual. From all Simpsons characters, Lisa has the strongest individuality, and that's what I love about her. Living your life also means living your dreams - like you were expressing in the thread title as well. Smile

About your latest drawing... I'm not sure I understand it right, but Lisa looks like you did something wrong to her Wink and knowing you, I'd say that's impossible. But Lisa looks very nice in such outfit, I especially like her hat - for some reason, it reminds me of an Italian artist. (No, not necessary Marco. Tongue) Nice picture (if only a bit sad), looking at it, it's hard to believe that you're running out of ideas!

Serge, you don't understand? It means that many emotions of our universe cannot be expressed through mere words. Instead, it is through art that things are best expressed.

The colour of you soul

which is the color of your soul?

I thought before about “black” and month felt always very sad… nevertheless lacked light…. my color is the blue one…. hidden dark… in which my feelings and. clear and it cheers in the days of sun Smile ..... which is your color?

Impossible Love…. a drawing of Lisa in which it is not Lisa…. it inspires to me by a picture of the house of my grandmother…  Wink

Love. the result of nights of cold… and a sadness that is killing to me…. Sad

Your third picture: She has waited, so very long, day after day, year after year, waiting for her love to return. She hasn't given up, but is still forever waiting. Amazing picture, Gustavo.

What is the color of MY soul, you ask? Red-black. Anger and fear all together in one.

I'm gonna be short, and sweet about each pic here. Tongue

Eligtenment:
The use of light and shade is kick butt! Seriously. It seriously captures the mood, its also a great pose.

natural_love:
Is it me, or is Lisa a little well, "flirty" n that pic? Maybe a few too many spikes coming off the dress though, but that's IMO.

she_is_my_friend:
Another great pose. To me, what I look at most in a picture is the pose.

love
WOAH! That is one hell of a picture. The emotion is so in your damn face and effective, it works well even if you were never to colour it. Though a minor detail, is that we can see under table where we shouldnt. (I'm not exactly good at describing but you should know where I mean Wink)

I should have commented your last set of pictures long ago!
Sorry if my reply might sound offensive. I'm not in my best mood right now. Stupid work...

The colour of you Soul - it's nice, very nice pic, but I must say that Lisa look way too offmodel on this drawing... it's mostly because of her mouth and overbite, but I hope other people around liked it as it is. Smile I'm not against big overbites on your pics, it's your style, but here it just doesn't look right imho. Lisa's expression is also a bit odd. On the other hand, the colors are great, and the picture looks nice overall.

love impossible - aw! The only thing in the whole drawing I didn't like is the title. Wink Everything else is great. Heh, "a drawing of Lisa in which it is not Lisa"? Interesting idea... though someone else might want to add her sax to the picture, or a couple of books, or at least a pencil. Lisa is a creative person, right? Very creative, and this picture shows her only as something fragile, cute and adorable (which is true anyway). The drawing is nice nevertheless... I like it very much. Even if technically there is no Lisa there.

love - again, Lisa looks a bit offmodel on this picture, but aside from that, it's good.
Keep it up Smile

Gustavo, i have not enough words to describe how much the feelings that pour out of your pictures makes me feel empathic for you... I never saw such "window on your soul" like pictures. I am torn between praise for you and your creativity, or sorrow for your situation.

Trust me, i understand it very well... i wish i could hug you know and tell you it'll all be ok Smile I want to talk, of all these pics, of "love impossible". It struck me dumb in its originality and effectiveness. Exactly as Dagdamor said... a picture of Lisa without Lisa, and it works so well! I can't praise you enough for this, it makes me feel things that i didn't feel since a long time.

Thank you very much Gustavo, i wish i could do anything to make your torment go away, but i also know that the worst of Torments can also be the greatest of Love. How silly we are, huh?  Tongue

What is left of Lisa is what the picture is. A simple memorial to the kind little girl. It is peaceful, and saddening all at the same time.
