Description
One day I will be able to draw detailed, full-color scenes without wanting to weep with frustration. Today is not that day.I think there are about three competing vanishing points in this scene. I kept accidentally erasing them and forgetting where they had been.

I don't know why, but I trust that bartender.
I love the details in it.

Honestly I don't think anyone can draw detailed, full-color scenes without weeping angrily at some point

I like the idea of varying vanishing points in this piece - its kind of like being in a saloon.
Similar to ubiquitous gaze, it calls the viewers perspective into question especially with the tilt of the picture.
Love the style

Even with the competing vanishing points it looks nice. I think that competitiveness gave it a curved look. A rather neat effect.

This piece is very reminiscent of Les Triplettes de Belleville to me. The contrast of the warm and cool colors is also very well-placed. Β Love it.

A little island of light and the security of the sameness of the everyday.Β Β Captured beautifully by your art.Β Β Someone said it earlier, yes!, very French.

Despite your dislike, I think this piece is totally neat.

The grass is always greener Adoradora. I love your style and the surreal vanishing points make this piece even more fun.Β

The perspective may be a bit wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey; but I think it makes this piece look amazing. It has an almost otherworldly-ness to it.

LOVE it. Your composition is not typical but it works really well. All those details set the scene and it's so WORTH it. Greta work!

I like this, I have a lot to learn from this. The composition, the colours, the light, the perspective. I love it!

The lady doth protest too much, methinks...Bitch, bitch, bitch!Β We've been waiting so long for you to post something, you could'a tossed paint at a piece of notebook paper, shot it with your cellphone and uploaded it, and we'd be happy.
The style in this one reminds me a little of Gahan Wilson (hey, you could do a lot worse) with a smidgen of Charles Addams.Β The details are insane -- from the cord on the old fan to the dusty 'top shelf' bottles.Β The bartender is a piece of work ('scuse me while I hurl) with his moray-eel mustache and steampunk blinkers.Β He's balanced (figuratively and compositionally) by that bird, which looks like a superannuated canary that consumed a medium-sized dog.Β Whole.
Such a sweet slice-of-life (carved, perhaps, with the scary-ass knife plunged into the pillar like it was a ditzy matron's calf) and you're wussing about perspective?Β Last I knew, you lived in New Orleans, where no two lines are going to converge, anyway!Β (It's the humidity -- warps everything up.)

I don't trust the people, yet it seems peaceful.

Every bar you draw makes me think of Frenchmen's

Well, yes. Β If you REALLY study the picture, you'll be able to stop the lines that don't converge. Β But honestly... I think it gets pulled off well. Β It is not something that you notice when you first look at the piece, which I believe is largely due to your excellent use of value and color. Β I really wouldn't sweat it too much. Β It's a gorgeous piece and everyone makes mistakes. Β It's all about learning and applying what you learn to the next work.
Also clutter is the most awesome best way to fill a space and cover up perspective imperfections. Β So kudos to you!

I like that swirly little bottle on the shelf before that mirror.

Ah phew I get dizzy if I stare at this one too long. But your layout is very impressive and that fella is surely going to have the cleanest of countertops.
