I'm afraid of marionette puppets so I'm disturbed by the fact that I find this piece so compelling.

I really like this it brings many thoughts to my mind the sentance I get from this is " no one can manipulate us except those who feel fragile enough to be manipulated "
do you think you could draw a boy version of this in a salior suit I would really like to see that
your art gives me inspiration

nice concept. we always have a choice. when we say we don't have one we're just afraid of concequences.

simple and pretty.

si el concepto es bastante acertado, me parece que se puede acemejar con la frase de "Cada hombre de crea su infierno", a diario cremos historias sobre nosotros para intentar inpresionar a otros y terminamos creyendonolas.

Buenos dias, this be the Captain snooping about the galleries! I gotta say you show some amazing talent. You have a unique and original style to your work and we need more artists like you! There's an adorable yet sad feel to your characters which somehow make you like them even more. There's a lot of detail if you simply stop to take a look at it, and your selective coloring definitely adds impact. You truly have a gift and I see a bright future ahead of you in the world of art. Take care and keep on rockin'!

Thanks captain. I wish you're right but world of art seems to be hard. At least in its commercial side. Well... the good point is that you always can draw even if no one pays to you for it.

generationwednesday [2004-07-06 00:13:54 +0000 UTC]

I'll add to you ego too
I just love your style. I can't stop staring. The expression in the faces, the quality of fabric, the motion of the bodies, your line quality...

And the metaphores you evoke are truely enchanting.

I had to add you to my watch list.

Thank you

Wonderful, wonderful work. Your style is magnificent, as is your ability to employ eye-catching colour schemes. I love the minimal usage of colour here as well as the shading.

conskeptical [2004-07-01 10:17:48 +0000 UTC]

this is wonderful. i wish i could remember the other artists i've seen who draw like this... perhaps mervyn peake? not sure... i love the dreary, bleak atmosphere, and the way the background pencil (?) strokes add form to the character.
the exaggerated facial features make the character seem half-way between human and puppet/doll like which is weird and illuminating too.
and you've digitally reproduced it really well... there's no offensive pixellation here which is impressive given how lo-res this is.
the only bit i'm not sure about is the swirly thing in the corner, that looks a bit 'bolt-on' and i'm not sure what it's for... apart from that this has tonnes of character and atmosphere.
the message is so true too... definitely a

..and now I feel.. blank, strange and sad. But that's our today's society. Acting like marionettes but who follows who?
I can't really tell, people seem so aimless. x_X

..but this is very sensitive.

Ari-kun [2004-06-25 04:46:21 +0000 UTC]

Wow, muy bueno... me gusta la ternura con la que trabajas, y al mismo tiempo cierto dolor/tristeza (eso en general, de lo poco que vi)... Y es verdad que es muy buen concepto.
Por qué razón usaste solo color para las ropas y los labios? Solo esa duda tengo.

BeatrizMartinVidal In reply to Ari-kun [2004-06-25 17:14:32 +0000 UTC]

Hummm...Es difícil de contestar. Suelo utilizar pocos colores y tampoco es que los escoja con ningún criterio definido. Hay combinaciones que me gustan mucho como los rojos sobre los dibujos en blanco y negro pero en cuanto a tu pregunta no podría contestarte con una razón clara, porque voy coloreando más o menos por intuición, hasta que la imagen me parece equilibrada. En esta imagen, una vez coloreado el vestido creo que me pareció que necesitaba un pequeño acento un poco más arriba y por eso puse ese punto de color en los labios.
Me encanta que me escriban en español. Por lo menos puedo dar explicaciones sin tener la impresión de parecer un poco reatrdada

Ari-kun In reply to BeatrizMartinVidal [2004-06-26 05:58:50 +0000 UTC]

jaja... a mi me pasa lo mismo, más con mi MUY bajo conocimiento de inglés, aunque tampoco el castellano/español... mbb...
Gracias por responder mi pregunta... respecto a eso, la utilización de ese rojo en zonas puntuales (es decir sin cargar demasiado de rojo) no sé podría explicar porqué pero a mi parecer quedó bien equilibrado, tal como fue tu intención... digamos que fuiste criteriosa/sutil a la hora de usar color, y eso acompaña la sutileza de todo el dibujo (aunque puede ser, como dijeron por ahí, que el adorno de abajo a la izquierda lo siento como que desentona un poco... creo que es porque parece hecho digitalmente y contrasta.
