Description I drew this months ago, planning to use it for something else.....but I liked it too much to just let it sit in my desk. Anyway, my character Karima; no one can pronounce her full Turkish name, so they just call her Karma.
I got alot of responses about this one, some people said she looked bored, others said irritated. Very interesting.
Let me know what you think.

its really cool but i think that there should be more work to define the lines, with lines or by putting more contrast cause it seems a bit like her arm is melting into her belly

she looks like the actress Michelle Williams from brokeback mountain, prozac nation, and but i'm a cheerleader
it looks like if you tipped her head down a bit more you could see her smiling, so maybe she's relaxed? that's what i get

i absolutely love this one. she looks at peace, relaxed. either she is getting ready to change...maybe do some yoga, stretch...or lie naked on the floor listening to music....maybe she is going to jump into bed and get lost in the covers after a long day.....hmmmm....anyways good work

too-unoriginal [2006-09-26 16:24:07 +0000 UTC]

She looks like she's up early in the morning, grunting about a new day. Maybe irritation...but more of a "ah man, another long day"...

If that makes any sense...

I like her belly!

She looks thoughtfully and if there is something she hides.
Great work!

To be honest, I can't really tell what she is feeling. Nor would I want to.

But I will say that the pose is amazing. I like to think it's something we all do once in a while...just hug ourselves.

*hugs himself*

I think she looks like she has a plan, scheming perhaps. A brilliant drawing.

Damn Dani, you're getting SO good! Really strong piece. Have you thought of doing a show? You've got enough strong pieces to do one (at least from MY perspective)

gaux-gaux [2006-09-24 00:35:23 +0000 UTC]

I think she's just thinking about changing. She doesn't look bored, nor irritated. Just doing something quite mundane. Your shading and pose astounds me...this is wonderful...please keep it up ^^

Infernodragon [2006-09-23 21:58:34 +0000 UTC]

i dont think its bored or irritated but more along the lines of ashamed...i think its her expression that gives off that vibe...then again..i've been known to think something is way different that what it really is. i love the detailing though. its really quite impressive

artgirl22 [2006-09-23 02:42:32 +0000 UTC]

This is an amazing drawing. I had to add it to my favorites. The feeling evoked by her expression is that of thoughtfullness, to me. I imagine her going through her daily ritual of preparing for a bath to unwind from her day.

I absolutely love this

palindromes [2006-09-22 08:37:20 +0000 UTC]

besides the fact that you scanner sucks and doesn't do the picture justice, this is really good. She looks reminscent and or thoughtful.

TaintedMelody [2006-09-22 00:02:11 +0000 UTC]

Well she looks... like you! haha.
And yes.. she's rather peaceful. And somebody good looking and naked is in the bed over in <<< that direction.

Crazzycat [2006-09-21 23:16:11 +0000 UTC]

She looks kinda bored to me. But it confused me because it looked like she was half way through taking her shirt off before she stopped and just sat there holding herself.

Subishi [2006-09-21 22:26:18 +0000 UTC]

I really like her hair! She's a neat character...How DO you pronounce her real name??

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

escusanarchy In reply to Subishi [2006-09-22 04:22:42 +0000 UTC]

Her real name is Karima Aydinlisoy (Kar-E-ma Ai-dihn-lih-soy)
Karima: Arabic for Noble or Generous Person,
And Aydinlisoy: Turkish for Enlightened Family.

No one can pronounce it, so they just call her Karma.

Hahaha, I like it I actually have a tiny obsession with picking names out...my character's names almost always mean something

escusanarchy In reply to Subishi [2006-09-22 17:31:12 +0000 UTC]

No, I totally know what you mean. I spent hours trying to find a good match for her last name....and this one really works.

definitely, it's an awesome name

StPeteArtisan [2006-09-21 22:14:01 +0000 UTC]

Its a beautiful piece I would say bored and anxious..like coming home to the usual after an interesting date....it looks a bit reflective to me, thoughtful for sure. Excellent work!

What differences? I did draw this before I shifted my style a bit.

DeViLiSh-Me In reply to escusanarchy [2006-09-21 23:07:41 +0000 UTC]

I'd say the shading, I believe that ur current shading is more defined than this one, but other than that, it's great <3

snoozinghyena [2006-09-21 21:41:09 +0000 UTC]

i think she looks attractive.
(: END OF STORY.

i don't think she seems irritated or bored really. to me she just seems kind of placid, maybe a bit thoughtful.
i like her a lot <3

HAHAHAHAHA.
AND several hours later, i add it to my favorites.

i don't make enough of a habit of faving things, and the picture's been on my mind since i saw it. hence, i realized that it is more than fave-worthy and that i should have done that in the first place
it's gorgeous.
