yeah, it was a fair investment that one.. worth it though, the prints sold like hotcakes at the show and we raised lots of pounds for the charity! ^_^
PLUS, I have it on good information that the guy who played the cop, Matt Parkman, loved it! lol

That's brilliant! *hugs* great job! I really hope i can help out in the future, year or two and i reckon i'd be good enough to create cheap prints, that is assuming i stick at it! ^^

Keep up the practice and I'm sure you'll get there! ^__^
If nothing else you can help by spreading the word and just supporting in the lovely way that you do! That's just as important to us

I wonder if you know this guy Mattahan ? I know him because of the Custom Icons he paints for Mac OS X and pcs but he also does some really nice cartoons. He's just added a bundle of them you see so it made me wonder. Here's a nice one [link]

Absolutely gorgeous! This is one of the very best pieces of Heroes art I have ever seen (heck, it's pretty darn high up there in my list of "best pieces" overall).

Bloody fantastic!

KatCardy In reply to Quelfabulous [2007-11-23 02:09:29 +0000 UTC]

I think for me the trick was learning to use the right side of my brain to produce high detailed art instead of the left... - it's much better equipped with high detail and longer-burning projects.. the left side of our brains is too impatient and desieres immediate results -_-

Quelfabulous In reply to KatCardy [2007-11-23 17:06:02 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. I know. I need to work harder with my right brain. I'm so used to working with my left in cartooning XD.... Though, when I sit down to do a more detailed piece like "Fairway at Turtle Creek" watercolor---I'm using that right brain of mine. --I just need more practice

KatCardy In reply to Quelfabulous [2007-11-28 15:49:38 +0000 UTC]

You deffinately should look into it, because using your right brain will seriously improve your cartooning too!! (just like knowing anatomy will improve your ability to animate, even though your characters "break" the rules of anatomy) - that fairway painting you did shows me how much potential you have as an artist if you can break from from the symbolic and dominating left brain, it's really not much good for artwork, but that painting was fantastic, and I wouldn't have guessed that it was one of yours (cos it looked so different to everything else in your gallery).
I'd deffinately reccomend working through the book "drawing on the right side of the brain" if you haven't already

Quelfabulous In reply to KatCardy [2007-11-28 16:17:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm working on it I'll have to upoad two of my newest right-brain work today--I did a charcoal still life and a pencil rendering of my doornob. Metalic objects are my favorite thing to do. It was time consuming,but It was alot of fun I've been sort of tryning to train my left brain to recognize sybols in higher detail. This kangaroo drawing I did for a friend--I did it completely from memory. I did not look at any pictures or references. I see things in my mind visually and I can remember conours and patterns I've seen before. Strangely, I seem to remember every line i've ever drawn---It's like it's imprinted into my brain and I could re-create it at any given moment..... the brain is an interesting thing. My mom is a neuro-nurse; she's tod e alot about it. Utimately- the right brian gives me the best results-- but drawing from memory is something I've don ever since I picked up a pencil and I've trained myself to do for cartooning I'm learning everyday no matter what

lol, damn, i was preparing my speech. ^_^
Me and my family usually go, we usually buy tickets on the day, so hopefully we should be going again. I booked time off work, so i aint gonna check if they given it to me or not, its booked, their problem not mine.

Its a harsh place for art i would say. You dont see many actual artists down there. Its practically a huge forbidden planet and collectors shop. Usually find bargains, so I like very much

KatCardy In reply to AngelCrusher [2007-11-20 17:45:56 +0000 UTC]

sell it to my why don't you? .. I'm not going cos of any of the collectors stuff or whatever.. I'm literally just going to support the chairty so I'm hoping I should be able to just hide my head in my sketchbook and get on with whatever it is they want me to draw \:]
