Artist's Comments

someone whose style blows me away. I felt some sort of homage was in order, but words failed. I tried doing this pic, and making it cool and cutting edge, like her style, but instead I ended up with a skewed semi-portrait which looks very little like my intended victim. nevertheless. Hoping it will make her smile knowing how many hours I stared at her face, and knowing that it was because of this picture that I learned to paint coloured pencil with a q-tip. thank you for all the good vibes LJ.


by the way, this is more stylized than photorealistic. if you're looking for that kind of quality check out nimra and dont bother tightening your socks. he's just gonna knock 'em off anyhow. :D

nothing i could say could really justify my thoughts with this painting. you've captured me brilliantly... you took the canvas where you felt it needed to go. you went to the right place with it...

i love it.

I love the way all the colors and textures in the background, in addition to her expression, help to create sort of an atmosphere
:iconangstforless:
well... I can really only claim the background..everything else was borrowed ( tweaked) from a photo sent to me by this highly talented person.. I've found I really enjoy doing portraits.. thank you for your wonderful comments!! :)
:iconrachyroos:
its unfair that someone should be able to write and paint like you do... A gorgeous painting lots of warmth and a feeling of serenity... amazing =P

Have nothing in your house that is not either useful or beautiful - William Morris.... oh well there goes my Brother

you are so very kind! thank you, I am humbled. in this instance I only did a fair job of actually catching my subject. she's more beautiful than my talent can match, and the pose and lighting were merely my interpretation of one of her photos. I also compose music. you can check it out by going to [link] and clicking on one of the links at the bottom, or if you email me with a mailing address I will gladly send you a CD sample of my tunes. :)

happy colors, sullen girl.
:iconangstforless:
hmm maybe my poor rendering.. in the photo I have she actually appears more thoughtful than sullen. nevertheless, I am very happy to have you stop by and doubly so that you took time to comment. :hug:
