Description
I attempted to draw something that was not yaoi for once. No wonder I feel a little empty inside. I drew this picture on a 2.5' x 1.3' mat board with watercolor, colored pencils, permanent marker, white-out, and orange/blue highlighter in my friend Stephanie's dorm room. I gave her a lot of mat board, and I had to get rid of it somehow.
This was the first time using watercolor on mat board. My friend Rori was like, "Instead of painting it one small stroke at a time, just get a big batch of it, and put it on there." I was like, "You are right!" so I mixed a whole bunch of watercolors together into a big bowl of water and splashed it all over the matboard. She screamed, "NOT LIKE THAT!" and I was like, "Shut up woman; I know what I'm doing!" -And SURE ENOUGH. I didn't. Haha. Watercolor noob!
Edited in Photoshop! Why is part of her hair purple?! GAHHHH! Now to do some unethical Medical Terminology! Everyone get your Mothers Day contest entries in! *shakes fist*

She's stunning.My favorite part os this picture is the shimmering eye shadow across her face.
That and her flower hair pin,( which in the very center of it looks like a meowing cat but I could be mistaken).
Well fabulous work as ever talk to me when ever you have a free moment.

Awww, DARN, you found Koji! Now, I have to redraw him somewhere where others cannot find him. ;__; Hah! I do not sell my art work because I AM TOO COOL TO MAKE MONEY. What you say to that?! HUH? lol
Ah! You "could" learn? You subconsciously learn something from looking at someone's art! I am already forcing my knowledge onto you with every piece you look at! I heard better shading/background techniques while looking at your art!
Thanks for the comment!

LOL I love reading your descriptions more than any other online artist, ha ha. Absolutely gorgeous glowing effects. DEM LIPS. Soooo luscious and beautiful~ *immediate fave*
...
......I haven't made any sort of contest entry. OTL

I love reading that you read my descriptions! BURNThank-you- I was afraid her lips were a little too luscious. They seemed a little big to me. ;__;
No worries! There is always next contest. And next contest. And next contest. And all the other contests like those until I die. HOORAY! Having art-block lately or just not interested? i can spice my contests up a bit! P; I can have the losers jump off into a flaming pit of lava and the winners get a free night at AppleBees!

xD Ha ha ha, no no your contest ideas are fantastic. :) I don't know, I just seemed to have lost desires, I can't seem to sit down and try to draw something worthy anymore. :/

Do you happen to have some other personal obligation/obstacle occupying your mind when you attempt to draw, or is it just general frustration in your art?ZeroMidnight on May 28, 2012, 11:40:51 AM

I don't really know..? It's been hard to draw for a while, but noticeably harder this year.unknownX on May 24, 2012, 6:40:18 AM

Wonderful colors. So nice and warm and the clip in her hair is my favorite. It almost seems as if her hair is glowing.luckylace222 on May 26, 2012, 2:49:17 AM
luckylace222 on
It did in fact make it so her hair could glow with that overdose of white-out! I do not know why, but I thought your avatar was the same person in my picture for a moment there?!
Thank-you so much! It is great to hear from you again!

One of your best pictures! I love the brown-orange palette You've used. It gives the picture this melancholic, autumn feeling.luckylace222 on May 22, 2012, 6:30:57 AM
luckylace222 on
Thank-you so much! I actually drew this on brownish/tannish mat-board, so that explains the already infused brown pallet! However, I have this strange subconscious though that the mat-board was actually blue...why do I keep thinking that?Yes, thanks you so much!
