Title: A Stitch In Time...
Post by: Heather on August 19, 2004, 04:04:47 AM
Hi y'all,

After temporarily being erased from the site due to my own confused/exhausted foolhardiness (and PMS-stricken computer - chuckle), I ask for a moment of silence in honor of thy moderators and our creator....MB.

::soft chanting and melodic music in the background:: *Thank you o' forum god, I am humbled and bow before you in divine tribute.* ;)

::amen::

Sniffle...

ANYWAY...  :D    I thought I'd share what I was cooped up doin' this weekend. Lordy, when I'm doing artwork I lose ALL track of time...scary!  LOL

The following is the result of a life-drawing assignment [sorry wenches, no nudity--male or female. Well, not this time. LOL (yeah, like I'd get away with posting that!)]   ;D

Yep, it's more Grayson...but it IS all about her, isn't it??  ;)  :-* She's a fascinating subject to draw. Very challenging; got to get that bone structure, hair, and exotic features just right...I added a few freckles too.  ;)

Well, I don't think this is great or anything but, what the hey, I thought I'd share. The only other portrait I've ever done that in any way resembles the subject is a drawing of the lead singer of U2 dressed in a deviish stage ensemble. But, that's another story for another day...  ;)

Yup, more Pepe. Too much is not enough (chuckle). I just love that character...[wistful sigh]   ;D

Fabulous!  I'm sure she was fun to draw...the eyes askanse glance is engaging and charming.

And what a GORGEOUS drawing of Grayson as Pepe!  Congratulations!  You certainly do have talent!

Thanks all...I got an A on that (yeah!). And Sweetheart? [blushing] My, I didn't realize our relationship had come that far, Steve... (deep chuckle).  ;) And with our mutual love of Pepe...hell, bring Chris along and we'll make this thing a foursome.  ;D  A few other people should get in on this too.....

 :o   WHOOPS...cough...Sorry. LOL

I musta been having a flashback of a kinky round robin I was involved in a while back... almost every adult DS character was in that one. A part of my mind has been unapologetically and perpetually in the gutter since that point on...LOL.   ::) ;D


Hugs,

Heather

Heather...you talented lady...are you taking an art class?i

Thanks Patti :-* I always wanted to draw Grayson or Frid...some of my first attempts are pretty pathetic, let me tell you...LOL.

And si senora, I am. College... enough art classes and critiquing to choke a pig.   :D   ;)   It's funny I caught this post - I just had my life drawing class...fun but stressful. People breathing down my neck as I'm trying to capture the finer points of the model...heck, I'm just drawing what I SEE...can't help it if i'm the only one who had view of...*down there*, if ya get my drift. What? Was it male or female? Wouldn't you like to know... ;)

Exhausted wench,

Heather

Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent Heather, how long did Grayson's close up take to complete? excellent drawing.  I give you an A+  :D

Thanks. :) I scanned this drawing at home...shoulda done it at school (*huge* scanner in the library). I tried to crop the most important part, but you can't see the whole thing (some of Pepe's suit is missing - for shame!  LOL). It's actually a 14" x 17" picture... it took about 3-4 days, in between working on other things, I think.  ;)
