Description Decipher if you can.


mechanical pencil on paper, 12x7cm, ca. 2-3 hours (during a dreadfully boring lecture -- they can be a wonderful incentive after all)

Very unique... I love your distinct yet creative style. The pencil strokes are just so graceful... the only word I have for this piece is "lovely".

Beautiful work, I really love the design around him - great style. I think I recognise your username from CGTalk, am I right? (I go by Elsie on there).

thanks! And that's right. Though I haven't logged on CGTalk in a couple of weeks, I usually frequent the 2D WIP forum and DSG -- I suppose the same's true for you?

Yep, I used to visit the 2D WIP quite a lot aswell as other places but at the moment it's just the anatomy forum since I don't have so much free time anymore : ) !

Really? So what does aggratude mean?

Thank you!

asclaire In reply to eilidh [2006-05-18 17:57:25 +0000 UTC]

the meaning has to stay a secret between you and yourself,
a portal of sorts, that is.
"More often than not, if I have one such, I end up with something very different to what I had in mind. I find that to be one of my bigger flaws." I don't think it is a flaw, an idea occurs and meets your hand, chance does the magic ! (whatever the idea, this one turns out to be elegant, that is)

Oh hell, you're clever. I wish I could sketch and draw. Just the ability to have a vision in your head and get it down like this is fantastic.

eilidh In reply to horai [2006-05-18 15:24:22 +0000 UTC]

the funny (sometimes frustrating) thing is that I don't often have a clear vision in my head that I set out to depict. More often than not, if I have one such, I end up with something very different to what I had in mind. I find that to be one of my bigger flaws. In fact, I should be working more... but there's little time for that nowadays. :/

horai In reply to eilidh [2006-05-18 22:24:27 +0000 UTC]

Well, whatever you cosider a flaw or frustration is certainly in my eyes a good thing.
I've watched you from almost my first day here and you never cease to blow me away.

thanks. -- a portal of sorts is probably the closest description I could give to this structure.

Unbelievably pretty! If your boring lectures are over, I'll find some over here for you to attend

eilidh In reply to Red-Queen-Of-Hearts [2006-05-18 15:27:21 +0000 UTC]

it was an accident. I was there for another lecture, only the professor didn't show up (greek ed.system ole), so I thought I'd go to another that was on my schedule (and normally didn't attend because I knew exactly how boring it is) to pass the time until the next.
Oh well. I'm glad it gave some room for creativity.

thanks.
Yes, they're just great for this sort of detailed work -- even if you are bored with drawing, you know you don't have anything else better to do -- so you go back to it for as long as the lecture lasts.
