I suppose it's forgivable!

Love coming up with titles. I rarely start with one in mind... it's fun when something just fits.

amazing! Its like she's divining from the book. Love the cat and the room, and the reflections in the wooden floor that reminds me of a warm spring/autumn day when you appreciate the sunshine, subtle

Arisashi In reply to BridesNightie [2006-07-25 23:36:55 +0000 UTC]

It's funny to read that right now, cause currently I am doing everything I can not to appreciate the sunshine. Blinds-shut, curtains-drawn, lights-off... my apt looks like a cave! I dont even want to go out to the mail box, I might die from heat exhaustion. I heard 3 "my dog died / is sick from the heat" stories today at work. THREE!!
Anyways, glad you like the sun spots! Usually I do too.

bloody hell thats bad! Poor pets. I hate the heat most of the time, except for in winter when I can't get enough of it. Its cold and wet here but the sun is shining like in your picture at the moment so I'm not complaining. I may even go and lay under the open window and watch the dust motes float.

Nice process. The layers of drawing and collage and other various elements have found great synergy in this piece.

synergy... huh. now I know it's true. I've been brainwashed. Everytime I hear or read that word I think of Jem- "it's showtime Synergy!"
Thanks for the throwback to my childhood, and for the comment too.

I love how see seems entraced, as though she were drawing some sort of .. power, or meaning from the image. The details in this are fetching, especially the flowers outside the window. I appreciate that kind of attention. I really love that you can put all these seperate elements together so concisely!

Would you ever consider doing a step by step example of your work? Or using an image that I gave you to incorporate?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Arisashi In reply to waltzinghippie [2006-06-18 01:08:50 +0000 UTC]

thank you very much for this comment! Sometimes I like the element to fit together really well, sometimes I like them to fight eachother. I think only lately I have been able to make them integrate well enough together that they hardly fight at all. (hahaha It sounds like Im talking about angry 9 year olds!)

I dont think I would like to do a step by step. But, if you like, I could send you a little note about it. question 2- sure! I cant promise a fast turn around hehe, but yeah. I would love to try something new and collaborative.

waltzinghippie In reply to Arisashi [2006-06-18 16:37:56 +0000 UTC]

I love how you describe it, working and fighting against each other, it's all so true.

I'd love if you could give me a reader's digest on some of the things that you do, like your process with the pictures of people, or where you get some of the images you use.

Ohh, a collaborative effort! Just let me know when you have some free time on your hands.
