Description i think there's a Pygmalion in every artist.. at some point we actualy create new worlds.. new characters.. new stories.. and it all becomes alive in our heads.. and i think sooner or later artist finds himself thinking about the story of Pygmalion..

so i drew him.. at work

sign in russian say "animals and old hags SILANCE! Master at work!"

Tādu uzrakstu vajadzētu uz manām durvīm pakarāt! Kad esmu aizņemta ar mājas darbu esmu ļoti viesmīlīga. Bet kad zīmēju vai esmu pārdomās par ideju ļoti gribas visus kautkur aizsūtīt..un ļoti tālu Jā! Meistars strādā )))
Starp citu, kā Latvijā var saņemt autora tiesības, lai piemēram publicētos un kādu naudiņu saņemt? Lasīju likumdošanu 1. neko naspratu 2. tur nav nekas par to teikts (((
Varbūt Jūs palīdzētu?

Bet tur ir krieviski. Latviski kad rakstīju viņš maz ko atrada, šķiet Latvija nemaz nav autora tiesību

i gues artists just don't draw this storry more often cuz they don't realises how much they have incomon with Pygmalion.. at least at some level

It's definitely true. I've found myself sketching my ideal of the perfect guy many times... haha.

i doubt i'll ever reach that level when i'll be able to draw all my ideals in one single woman drawing
it would need a level of Mona Lisas smile.. where you can actualy see all emotions at the same time.. when smile is alsow a sadness, anger, passion and decadece

but if something seems imposible - it's definietly worth to do it

Doublet-of-Trent In reply to cepums [2009-08-21 00:35:46 +0000 UTC]

definitely. And half the time, works that you don't even think about end up turning out amazing! It's all a toss-up in the end. I bet you could do it though!!

Interesting piece ~ I like the paintbrush part

May I ask why the overall blue colour scheme?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

cepums In reply to artofalinea [2009-07-30 16:23:56 +0000 UTC]

tnx

as for why they are blue.. i don't know
i had my yellow period before this.. and first cave turned out to be blue.. and from then - it somehow just stayed this way..
i'm a lazy boy and i like things to be simple.. so i make them monochromatic with little accents of yellow or red.. this way i spend less time looking for realistic colors.. wich takes a while since i'm partialy colorblind and have to do that all day since i work as a graphic designer
besides.. i maybe see less greens and reds.. but i see alot of blue.. and it's my favorite color.. so i realy like that walls in my room are covered with these blue caves

and blue is a color of sky.. of see.. of dreams and hopes.. it's a color of soul.. and since i think that soul isn't inside the person but some sort of spiritual exosceleton - it all makes sence these caves are our souls.. the place where we live at and where everything happens that's why it's so easy for me to say things using this symbolism

Very nifty textures and contrast! The only critique I have is that maybe some darker shadows would've looked cool.

Very cool picture, though!

and probabaly you are right.. i didn't notice that the blue has eaten away my pencil shadows in this one..

You're right, i think, about Pygmalion's ubiquity.
Btw, i think the russian "Бабы" is bet translated as "Broads"; Old Hags would be "Карги".
Oh, and great work on the marble texture!

Nu šis variants man nedraud kā tam tēlniekam mitoloģijā.

Jo pat tie savi zīmējumi, kas man patiešām patīk (un tādu nemaz nav iipaši liela daļa no visa, ko uzzīmēju) pēc pāris mēnešiem man sāk likties pārlieku kļūdaini gan dzīvnieku anatomijas, gan krāsu un tehniskā izpildījuma aspektā. Un tad vairs tik ļoti nemaz nepatīk. Ar digitālajiem pat ir bijušas domas, ka varbūt jaapārtaisa, kļūdas jaapielabo.
Nu, jā, uz reizēm pat pāris mēnešus nav jāgaida, par savu pēdējo zīmējumu, ko pabeidzu pirms 2 dienām jau tagad zinu, kas tur nav kā vajag.

Bet kaapēc tāds uzraksts? Nu par to strādājošo meistaru es saprotu, bet kaapēc zvēri un vecenes pieminētas? Un kaapēc krieviski?

AndreasAvester In reply to cepums [2009-07-10 16:46:44 +0000 UTC]

Nu uzrakstam jau nav ne vainas.

Tu to par studiju nākotnē domā nopietni? Vai arī taapat kā es ar savu ieceri par to, ka man kādreiz būs pasīvā (energoietaupīgaa) māja, kurā būs palmu siltumnīca?

Es taču nemaz neuztveru nopietni VISU. Un ko es varu darīt, ja vienmēr esmu bijusi nopietna? To tā nemaz nevar beigt, lai gan jāatzīst, ka īsti nemaz nevēlos to mainīt.
