Description
my life is brilliant.
my love is pure.
i saw an angel.
of that I'm sure.
she smiled at me on the subway.
she was with another man.
but I won't lose no sleep on that,
'cause I've got a plan.

you're beautiful. You're beautiful.
you're beautiful, it's true.
i saw your face in a crowded place,
and I don't know what to do,
'cause I'll never be with you.

----- from “You’re Beautiful” by JAMES BLUNT

The original work is here: WHY YOU DREW ME?

I don’t have much to say about these WIPs… just that they are crappy. That’s how I always start anyways. I named the finished work “Why you drew me?” cause I didn’t know the answer myself. Some of my friends here at DA have answered it. I drew her cause it has everything I love… gadgets, automobiles and girls. Explains a lot.. doesn’t that?

Thanks to *Rita-Ria for suggesting the song.

This one goes to the amazing *bananalicious who is one artist with all the abstract imagination of the world. I saw her work in a DD and commented at her work. To be very frank she is the first artist to have become a friend of out of my comment on a DD. What I think of her is that its very important that you read her artists’ comments if you really wanna know her… especially when she always leave them half way. Her titles and the subject matter they relate to are strange mixtures of sorts that always increase my ravenous appetite for art. Godspeed to the bananas of the world.

PS: Theatre opens the mind, which is true, but it also reflects the society that produces and supports it.

BlessedStranger In reply to LensNation [2006-06-28 15:40:01 +0000 UTC]

no no no.. there is absolutely nothing missing in this pic..(perhaps ur signature..i didn't check if u signed ur name or name..hehe)...but it looks amazing..n its pretty neat the way you sketch before you begin to shade in the drawing... like i make a BIG MESS and then i end up erasing all the details when i'm coloring or painting...

Your'e drawings are AMAZING!..its so great to have DESI artists on this site that draw exceptionally well!..

here are the lines:

"kise puchya bulle shah nu, shehar lahor andar kinne buhe te kinnian barian ne
kinnian khuian da panni mitha, te kinnian kharian ne
kinnian ittan tidkian, te kinnian saariyan ne
kinnian kudiyan viahian, te kinnian kuariyan ne

oh boleya shehar lahor vich lakhaan buhe te karodaan bariaan ne
jinna khohian da pani pitta sohni ne, oh mithian te baki kharian ne
jinna ittan te per rakhya sassi ne, oh tidkiyan te baki saariyan ne
jinna nu mille ranje, oh viahian te bakki kuarian ne"

And thus we see inside the genius mind that is Bobbyrock. What an interesting mind indeed! A little crazy, but genius nonetheless .

It's always nice to see how everyone starts out their works of art; makes us less fortunate see how masterpieces are made, knowing that it's actually possible lol. Nice one, keep it goin!

Five-Aces In reply to LensNation [2006-06-26 00:32:48 +0000 UTC]

Yeah we are launching another album. It's in progress. You have to keep up with these events Bobby!

Four years?! LOL Nice. Reunion Tour!!!

Of course I get the fanmail. It's always the same, slightly annoying messages we used to get.

"heat bill for $70.00", "pay your TV bill NOW", and "evacuate your house or else you get broken kneecaps". Ugh day in day out. It's tiring. I'm forwarding all mail to you.

lol you're welcome

grrrrr... ego issues... see.. thats why we broke up in the first place.... you always liked to stand one inch ahead of me on the stage.... you always sat in the car first..... you always ate first... and it was you.. you.... who always played the computer games before me... heck.. u even used the restrooms before me... why man why?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Five-Aces In reply to LensNation [2006-06-28 02:32:53 +0000 UTC]

Why did I use the restrooms first?

Because those burritos caused some...problems...

How many times do we have to go over why I was first? It's because of my suave charm and intellectual nature. Because I'm awesome. And maybe if you called 'shotgun' quicker for the car, we wouldn't be having this problem. Just be gald you're second. Because if you weren't, YOU'D be getting that 'fan' mail first

LensNation In reply to Five-Aces [2006-06-28 05:24:24 +0000 UTC]

on a second thought... if getting more "fanmail" is what being first all about..... maybe im happy being a second......

that reminds me... i have two letters for you... wrongly sent to me by your fans...... sent from the departmental store

ooo cars.. if only i can drive one.. lol ok ok i lie i can drive one AND ITS NOT AN AUTOMATIC!! lmao.. aww thank u.. ur too sweet.. i was wondering wow.. i seem to have more messages than usual.. where am i being featured??? lol till one of ur friends told me it was through ur wicked sketches.. once again.. bro u out done urself.. i think those r wicked starts to a drawing with outlines.. i really like the 2-3rd frame, the absence of detail really gives that image a whole lot of possible ideas for the audience to try and picture.. it is also a nice tonal look aswell from top reading diagonally as it fades.. and once again thank u.. u and ur friends made my day!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LensNation In reply to bananalicious [2006-06-25 12:04:25 +0000 UTC]

the truth is that i never use outlines to draw my works... instead i simply start from the eyes and draw as i go.. but for these very wips and knowing that i will be posting them afterwards i draw them anyways.

well i didnt know that my dedicating a pice might get you a higher number of pageviews and comments im not that big.. A longtime back tunaferit featured me and i got about 400-500 page views in a day... thats the power of a big...

..and to say in the least... you totally deserved it.. i seriously think DA needs more artists of your temprament.

bananalicious In reply to LensNation [2006-06-25 21:56:45 +0000 UTC]

awww thank u sweet pea lol. many have a restriction of working.. some may fear of screwing up and some may not have the tools to perform a great task.. in the end we all appreciate no matter how big or small the piece is.. it is well deserved the attention. i would rather be given a drawing or something someone has made for a present rather than something that has been reproduced and overpriced.. where the only thing valued for it is its brand.

anyways.. they eyes!! that is always a great part to start with.. i feel everything is in the eyes.. no matter wat skill the image shows.. if they get down the eyes.. nothing else matters! lol
