Oh, I didn't know you drew Daughtry. You've been holding out on us.
This year I like Chikezie and David Cook. Do you think you can do them? Not both at the same time, of course.
And Clay singing Mack the Knife. That's my favorite AI performance from him. I have a BIG hi res pic you can use.
That's not it of course, I just like it.

Did him last year I think...? whenever the movie came out...
I was playin with inks and wash then....
Here's another ink & wash...this is LuLu..Louise Brooks...big silent film star...from her movie Pandoras Box. I kinda liked this one because she had the sheer black veil raised around her head and the wash worked really good with it.

Lordy Lou
Ms. Kimmeh
, can I borrow your talent, just for like . . . a day or so??? Seriously.
I feel silly posting cartoons when you, and
Jan
posts such lovely works.
I
Love
the Marilyn Manson one. The style just really goes with his . . . him.
I like him. Only a couple/few of his songs, but he seems like such a down to earth person when you see him in interviews. Not like the crazy, demon, person people make him out to be, you know?
And Edward and Jack, so cool, and everything else.
I'd love to see a Sweeney Todd from you.
The face on bunny gal just seems so off to me now, it being so old (yes, three years is so old for me with art
). I just don't like her face anymore. I still quite like the inking. I was obsessed with inking then. I have quite a few ink arts from then.
Well, here's one of my latest (I feel silly posting it now
):
*click*
Don't mind the sample on there (was showing and didn't want anyone to take it, since some take lineart to color where I post).
Um . . . this was the first cartoony thing I tried out the other night. Was done in ballpoint pen (which looks pretty bad from my pic
) and I inked it on the computer. Coloring now.
Her neck looks a bit off (like it goes off her should into . . . nothing
). Hmm . . .

Carla...don't you dare feel silly posting your wonderful stuff! I positively LOVE it!
Don't forget...you owe me a sleeve tattoo!
Hey...heard anything about that tattoo gig? My guy that does my tattoos said I could display some stuff in his new shop...but I really only have the Bride of Frankenstein that'd really "fit in" there.
Can ya see me putting my Clay's up in a tattoo place??
Manson woulda been cool...but he's long gone.
I like Manson too.
I like Marilyn Manson and Clay Aiken.
Beth!
You snuck in!
Jan...what would be the best kinda paint for a beginner? Acrylics?

CARLA
YOUR WORK IS UNIQUE, CLEVER ,AND DO NOT EVER DOWNPLAY YOUR TALENT. HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN DO WHAT YOU DO???? KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING, IT IS WITTY AND CHARMING!!!
J.M
A LOT OF BEGINNERS TRY ACRYLICS, NEVER KNOWING THAT THEY DRY SO FAST. IF YOU START IN OILS, YOU CAN LEAVE THE PAINTING OVERNIGHT AND THE OILS WILL STILL BE WORKABLE.
ACRYLICS ARE GREAT FOR ABSTRACT ART, AS THE PAINT IS FLAT. OILS ON THE OTHER HAND HAVE SO MUCH DEPTH. ESPECIALY IF YOU ARE DOING PORTRAITS, THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO.
WATERCOLORS ARE WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH IF YOU ARE AN OUTDOOR PAINTER. THEY ARE PARTICULARLY WONDERFUL FOR LANDSCAPES, FLOWERS, ETC. BUT TO DO PORTRAITS WATERCOLORS ARE THE MOST DIFFICULT.
I USED TO LOVE TO DO CELEBRITIES; MY FAVORITE WAS M ARILYN MONROE. HAVE YOU DONE ANY DRAWINGS OF HER.? THEY ARE VERY SALEABLE.
FRANKIE
YOUR NEEDLEPOINT IS VERY GOOD. SEEEEEE, YOU WERE HIDING YOUR TALENT, WHAT ELSE HAVE YOU DONE, BESIDE DECORATE YOUR HOME ARTISTICALLY, NOT TO MENTION YOUR GREEN THUMB.
FRANNIE
I ESPECIALLY LIKE THE DRAWING OF THE ABSTRACT SCULPTURE, IT HAS DIMENSION. MORE????????

Jan's right Carla! I would LOVE to be able to do what you do!
Frannie...any more sketches in there? needlepoints?
I got some Marilyns Jan...
Never any of em serious intricate drawings....just kinda quickies... like all my inks
One of my very first attempts at using the black acrylic paint for a background...
Ink....
And THIS one is older...I still hadn't gotten down the whole "blending" graphite thing yet
Clay has this photo of Marilyn up in his house!
I really should try that one again now...it's a GREAT shot of her....
I love drawing her when she has the big cheesy grin

Kim ~ He is really good! Did he paint before he was injured? Does he live near you?
Isn't it wonderful that he has found something that he can do despite his severe handicap? Just goes to show ya that we all have talents, but sometimes we need to search for them.
I'm going to visit my mom today and I'll take pics of some of the needlework that I gave to her. Heck, I'll take a pic of my mom too.

I'd like to meet mom someday
That would be awesome! We go to lunch and/or doctors and/or errands every Wednesday. Maybe you can join us some day. She lives close to the area that we will be going to on Saturday.
Anyway, I did go to Mom's house and I did take pics of what she has in her house that I stitched for her.

~ And these two I made at the same time. I gave the one on the left to my mom and kept the other one for me. They're tiny, only 5"x 6" with the frame.

Then while I was there I thought I would show you some of the things that my dad used to whittle before he developed neuropathy in his hands.
~ I think these animals are absolutely adorable. Click 'em.
~ This is a Love Spoon. They were carved by men in the British Isles in the 18th & 19th centuries as a token of affection for their lady friends.
~ And this one is very special to me. This is a door harp. It's Swedish folk art. It hangs on the back of a door and when the door opens and closes the marbles bounce off the wires and make a beautiful, gentle musical pinging sound. It's so charming.
So I guess this is at least partly where I get my fondness for folk art.

Very, very spiffy,
Frannie
.
Your stitching is wonderful.
Everything you posted is very neat, I must say.
(By the by, I love your avie
I can't look away.
)
Thank you
Kim
&
Jan
.
I'm glad you like my art.
It just happens sometimes where I feel my art is inadequate. Seeing such gorgeous art from gals such as yourselves, and so many people still thinking that cartoons aren't art, it just sometimes happens, is all.
Kim

Yes, I do indeed owe you a sleeve tattoo!
Well, I'm living with my sister and BIL right now, being nanny for my niece, and it's an hour and a half away from tattoo man, so . . . yeah.
No, the shop isn't up yet, and I don't think it will be . . . anytime soon, really.
My sister called a friend of hers and has him on the lookout (he has a tattoo artist friend) of shops here in the twin cities to see if anyone wants to apprentice, so we'll just go where the road takes me at the moment.
Yes, I like Marilyn Manson and Clay Aiken as well.
Hand off a Clay drawing for the tattoo place, they'll love it!
I love the Marilyn Monroe pics.
And wow to the painter there.
It is quite lovely, I must say.
Well, while I'm here, some art for you fine peeps.
Some probably remember this one from the old art thread:
From . . . October 2006, I believe.
I still love it quite a bit, I must say.
Well, I had the lineart in photobucket, and thought I'd color it again for fun, and here's the result:
Last one, was done doing cell shading, the new one, I thought I'd try a bit more of a painterly/watercolor-ish kind of thing.
I quite like how it came out . . .
Cartoon Me and Cartoon Clay if you didn't know.
When my hair was short, now it's just . . . insanely long,
Hope you like.
Love and hugs
Carla

Kim - you need to go to the library and check out "The Other Side of the Mountain" (or go rent the movie by the same name). It is the story of artist and teacher Jill Kinmont. She was everyone's choice to lead the Olympic skiing team in 1955, when she was paralyzed in a training accident. She has made a wonderful life with her art - and she also paints with her mouth.
Carla - if you don't stop "putting down" your art, we may have to get out Mama Boca's paddle!
Most people (Me Too!!!) would give anything to have your talent.
I love coming here to see all of the art -
