Rebecca,I liked your sketch of the slave I think you pinned the essence pretty nicely.
there always is something more to a sketch when you dont give equal line weight or detail to all parts.:slight_smile:

Shyam or should I call this Shyam-a-thon!! great enthu man:thumbsup:

Hehe, thanks! :wink: Egad, it’s funny, I’ve never forced myself to do drawings in this style in quite this fashion…hopefully, with practice, will adapt. :wink:

Cheers, :slight_smile:

Thanks, shyam! :slight_smile: Hehe, after that last awful set, I needed to redeem myself a little bit :wink: ~ in truth, I hate to leave a trail of unfinished pieces ~ I’ve kind of prided myself on weeding out all of my unsuccessful drawings over the years, which kind of psychologicall builds you up ~ so posting my bad drawings is unfun for me, but it’s good for me to get into the habit of just posting regularly, good or bad. :wink: So thanks for the encouragement! :thumbsup:

Weef, it’s 1:30 am and I think that’s the last I’ll be working on this piece, at least for now. It’s kind of cool, though, to revisit pieces I’ve copied traditionally in a digital medium ~ definitely good practice!

What I like most about your digital work is that you seem to be able to translate pretty well the general feeling of a traditional drawing, which I find to be a rare ability. Any tips, shyam? :slight_smile:

Cheers, :slight_smile:

quick marker sketch on paper:

Gord - i really fell for your style, man. It is like a detailed form of fuzziness or like I said earlier an abstraction of deeper insight.

rebecca - your charcoal drawings never cease to unhinge my jaws.
With your digital pieces I sometimes get the desire to put on my glasses (which I can’t cause I have no glasses), though.
I think you somewhere said that Goro wanted to make you use hard edged brushes. From what your digital landscapes are looking like (they have the same dreamlike quality) this simply seems to be your style, but in one of your earlier sketches in this thread there was a stronger balance between soft and hard edges, somehow.
background music stops playing
silence
tumbleweed rolls by
err, yea, but what do I know, actually?:scream:

zhuzhu - like in Gord’s work (different style though) what fascinates me is actually the same thing I like about certain music: “depouillement,
meaning stripping down, sobriety, concision, or bareness[…]”

a term used for Eric Satie mostly - when you leave out all that is unnecessary and thereby expand into the heart of things.

Or to put it in a nutshell (putting on forumite mask):

you guys roooooock!:buttrock:

#756

With this word… you put your finger of my most hard problem… each time I saw the zhuzhu’s drawing… I’m always impress by his “fast” good feeling… few lines, and it is already very speaking :bowdown:

#757

Thanks Mr. Mu. I appreciate the comments.

He’s a composer with a great sense of humour(which I guess you should love, too).

I remember this piece which is 40 seconds musical ideas and development and then 2 or 3 minutes just end phrases and cadences, building up a completely absurd and hilarious climax. I laughed so hard when I first heard it.
