I just saw someone's drawing of Escher's eye. It made me take a look at my own gallery and remind myself of my take on his self portrait, which in turn led me to your nice comments and here. You have a nice gallery, keep up the good work.

Whispers always saying,
in my mind they are playing.
Songs to soothe the body and mind.
Simple pleasures to remind.

beautiful details in your gallery. done traditionally, that makes it even more beautiful.

AlbenSilverberg In reply to Muarw [2006-07-31 06:46:34 +0000 UTC]

Thanks . Traditional art is fun, but I'm not sure if it's what people want to look at anymore. Of course, when I create art, it's 'for' me, but I also want it to look as good as possible.

Muarw In reply to AlbenSilverberg [2006-07-31 07:07:44 +0000 UTC]

I warrant traditional art gives alot more control and there has been amazing styles created using traditional media. You don't for example get that soft look you could get from using pencils that you cant get from using digital programs.
i like photoshop layers tho and because of the ability to redo a part without messing up another using digital styles. on paper if theres alot of details involved, i'll probably mess something up TT....

oh yes....*goes to fav your gallery*
hope to see more from you

My gosh, your artwork is amazing!

The only problem with anything is that some pictures are too small. You put so much work into them, but don't let the rest of the world see it!

Would you mind if I watch?

AlbenSilverberg In reply to Toob-Rat [2006-07-29 21:25:38 +0000 UTC]

I'd love it! Thanks ! . And.. some of these don't have bigger versions. But, if my full views are too small, I can redo some of them for more detail.

Toob-Rat In reply to AlbenSilverberg [2006-07-29 21:55:48 +0000 UTC]

If you do manage to find your old works again, it would definitely be nice to see larger versions of them. But don't do anything as drastic as redoing any of them!

AlbenSilverberg In reply to Toob-Rat [2006-07-29 22:57:50 +0000 UTC]

What's a good resolution size for full view? Some of them I can definitely enlarge .

Toob-Rat In reply to AlbenSilverberg [2006-07-30 00:10:07 +0000 UTC]

Really, it is up to you, but a size similar to the "Practise Art" picture is good. It's not too large, yet offers enough detail.

1337hero [2006-07-26 01:58:34 +0000 UTC]

Well... I've always liked art with cool perspectives- that is, something different than the norm. I suppose you do too since you take a liking to Escher. I think one of your best talents is perspective, so I think you should exploit that. -Just a thought

I have to think of something great for my next piece. I haven't drawn in 6 months, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be a challenge. Any ideas anyone? What would you like to see me draw?

Thanks buckets . Normally I don't like being 'watched'.. but on here I love it . Thanks, and I hope to see your 'masterpiece' sometime soon. (that is, everyone should have a true masterpiece).
