[Art] Self Portrait in Snail.

A3 illo's board
pencil / aquarelle / acrylic / fineliner

I know a lot of people didn't want me to colour this, but honestly I don't give a shit. It's a self-protrait, I can do whatever I want to it. Hell, I can even burn it now, if I want to. :)

Wow, that's amazing! :)

I *love* it. I love the shading in the blues, and I love the striking red to the right. I love the contrast between the soft, flowing cool colors, and then the harsh red lines. And the shading on your face is just *specatacular*.

And hell, even if you did burn it--at least I could say that you shared it, and I saw it, and appreciated it. That's important to me.

Whoa!

Like midnight with highlights...

[tsukikokoro.livejournal.com]

I knew that even colored, it'd still look spectacular!

:( Don't burn it! I'll buy it, seriously.

[bewylderbeast.livejournal.com]

This is wonderful.

[azhure.livejournal.com]

It was stunning in black and white. And it's even more stunning coloured. I am still utterly in love with it.

I actually really like the coloured version (although I also liked the original). But the shades of blue you used really stand out - awesome job!

Me too.

[perzephone.livejournal.com]

I ditto this sentiment.

The blues are great, I like the way the snail had a shadow snail on it. Its not entirely in the same style is there any reason for that?

Its not entirely in the same style is there any reason for that?

Just something I've been experimenting with lately. :)

[greenforest-elf.livejournal.com]

*hugs u*

I think it's fabulous. I think it is an amazing self-portrait that can really give people a sense of who you are in one shot. This accomplishes what words can't.

It's beautiful! I can see this in an art gallery someday. :)

[witchchild]

Beautiful.

The colour definitely makes a difference. I liked the b&w but I love it coloured.

[cazzyline.livejournal.com]

I think it looks like you are breaking free of a web. Slow, maybe, persistently, definitely. Despite energy pushing and pulling at you.

You're beautiful.

While the whole image seems to just... suit so much of what you've written, I continue to be head over heels for the snails. ^_^; But perhaps I'm silly.

[toeknuckles.livejournal.com]

it's perfect. 8-)

[amberfishy.livejournal.com]

I agree.

[mycala.livejournal.com]

Omg, that is absolutely gorgeous! You're incredible.

[amorvincitnos.livejournal.com]

I think it's gorgeous in colour and I love the vivid blues. It's one of my favourites now, I think.

[dynxsilverwolf.livejournal.com]

Wow. Just...wow.

[ellenmillion.livejournal.com]

That is amazing!

[psychrobia149.livejournal.com]

WOW!!!! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!! Awesomeness P!!! :D

But now I'm torn, because I can't decide which version I like more.....so I think that I'll just adore both versions equally. :)

((((((Love you, love your work tremendously)))))))) :)

[earthguardian.livejournal.com]

:D

[cloversix.livejournal.com]

I was hoping you would color it, and I am not disappointed! Beautiful!

[paleo.livejournal.com]

Very entrancing!

[x-raeya-x.livejournal.com]

Well I really like the coloured version. I think it gives it a life that the b&w didn't necessarily have. I love it :)

[rainsingingwolf.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I cannot express how much I love this piece.

[lightgoddess-69.livejournal.com]
