Description Well, I've had a truly awful Monday - everything that could go wrong at work; did. Overflowing toilets, flooding radiators, disfunctional printers and errant cleaning staff. Sometimes being a manager is no fun!

So I just spent the last couple of hours doing some clothes painting to chill out. I'm rather happy with the results here; I wanted to create something different and nature themed - and this came out semi-decent and I'm a darn sight more calm now.

Thanks for looking

LOL - well, you have niggled me on a point - perhaps I will do something with a nature piccy soon; rather than a perdy gal in scenery - maybe make the scenery the focus. Maybe...

Lol - well... in my latest I used the nature bits for clothing - so that's sort of similar. I really need to learn to paint trees...

Foggy trees... all the better to cover mistakes with! Better yet, just make a picture of fog.

Oh yes - fog is a great masker of crappy background!

I think it came out very well...in fact it's very "Disneyesque". It has the flavor of a frame from an animated film.

Phlox73 In reply to derangedartist [2006-05-31 23:55:36 +0000 UTC]

It is a bit, isn't it? I did another one recently that isn't quite done that has a very disney-esque quality, must've been watching those videos so much when I was a kid.

Where've you been anyhow? Looking for more jokes?

Hi Nickster-Trickster.

As you know Iā€™m not a great fan of your images of pre-pubescent headed nymphs with curvaceous, fully-formed female bodies. I much prefer these more sophisticated characters. Great composition and a wonderful translucent quality to the dress, in fact it might just be your best yet [IMHO].

Iā€™m fine thanks. You area allowed to pop around and pay [well entry is free actually] a visit to my site, and say hello, now and again you know!! You might just be rewarded with some more jokes.

Thanks my dear. I am very happy with this one because it tuned out how I saw it in my head - very unuasual for me!

Ahh the ZEN of doing what you love.Nice work, I like the trees and fog effect but the dress seems a little flat (2D).

Phlox73 In reply to Joe1313 [2006-05-23 11:32:32 +0000 UTC]

Thank you - and yes it is a bit flat, I think I concentrated more on the leaf shape to the skirt and got sidetracked. That said though, it looks better smaller - or from a distance.
