Hi I like your piece based on Hallowell. Have you heard the rendition done by "Sometymes Why"? It's a folk arrangement rather than choral. I can't get it out of my head so I'm also planning to make visual art our of it.
Cheers,
Mishka

Hello there Sarah! I hope that you are having a good weekend. I haven't left yet, but I miss you lots already! I hope that you have a good weekend. If it is nice out try to spend some time outside and take a walk every now and then. The front porch of flavors house is great for sitting on and reading. Those rocking chairs kick some serious butt.



I will try my best to give you a call sometime tonight or tomorrow

Oh, and you ROCK!!

Thanks! I think the blue color varies if you're on a laptop or a desktop, because now I'm on a laptop and they look positively unnatural!

Nope...I'm studying Russian, though! Even though the Szymborska I have is translated, it's the most amazing poetry I've ever read!

Robokatt12 [2004-05-13 15:17:54 +0000 UTC]

Sarah-Welcome to dA. I agree with your comment in the journal. The problem with policy-making is that there's just no way to satisfy everyone. I'm sure that there are people in the world who get sexually aroused by babies on diaper commercials, as awful as that sounds. A lot of my friends have been banned recently and the problem seems to have been related to their habit of posting frontal male nudity. Not kiddie porn. I'd like to join an art community that is age-restricted, strictly 18 and over. Does such a thing exist that you're aware of? 'Sorry to be so chatty to a total stranger. Thanks!

sarahtomic In reply to Robokatt12 [2004-05-14 17:16:40 +0000 UTC]

Are 18+ people any less perverted than people 17 and under? Granted, I don't suppose there would be the "|30|3135!!!!!!!!!!" comments, but there are some truly talented artists under the age of 18. ~Markybaby , for example, is 17--you should check out his art...it's impressive!

There are more professional communities, but there are definitely quite a few professional-level artists in this community to keep me here for now. But, man, I wish they could spell.

> But, man, I wish they could spell.

Amen to that. I just joined, but had been thinking about it for a long time. One of my biggest reservations was that this place can seem so childish. First, the whole "deviant" everything is just... ugh, and second, it seems that 96.83% of people here seriously cannot spell to save their lives. I mean, a typo here and there is no big deal, but I get the impression that many people just don't care / don't try.

With some people, I can understand, because they're not from the US. I made an entry called Temp Job trying to tell people how to use "your/you're/their/they're/there" but I'm not sure if anybody took me seriously. In fact, the Deviant Art staff don't seem to get it right, either.

Well I must thank you for the It's my first one, so it's much appreciated...

More works will be up very soon, as soon as I've done the finnishing touches, took photos, but mostly till after the exhibition is set up...

Oh, and Speechless does really leave me speechless (cliche', I know), the use of colour is very impressive...

One thing though, the coulr of the out-stretched elbow, it is very close in complexion to the background, but it's good in another way that it almost tricks the eye into thinking that the figure is beginning to fade into the background...

That the painting is still of a capture of time...

Great work, never stop, good luck and may your paint brushes be easy to clean and never solid with dried-up paint...

*toddles off, paint brush in hand, and goes back tohis sculpture*
