I'm loving all the purples! Those orchids are so gorgeous. But for some reason the line of her neck down to her collarbone is my favorite. lol That's probably weird right? XD


PS How'd your doodlin go? Did you get them all done on time?

Thanks!! Haha, this is another classic "small detail" comment from you! Love it. ^^

I thought maybe I made this one a bit too sparkly, but... you know how I am with sparkle dots. (No self-control...)

I did manage to get them all done in time, but I don't think some turned out to be as good or as inspired as they could have been. The deadline was ridiculously tight after all.

This is even better in color! It's gorgeous!
Sometimes with people's drawings, color can detract from the image, but with yours, it just intensifys the feeling!

aruarian-dancer In reply to PetiteNutella [2009-10-05 23:39:43 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you think so. Thank you!!

Some people are so into black and white, and don't like color at all (And they let me know. LOL), but I love giving the line drawings/doodles transparent tints and highlights. The process, to me, is very much like putting on makeup. You're trying to "enhance" what's already there by giving it just enough color. ^^

Ooh! So that's why you put both of them up? I was wondering about that!
Haha, it does seem like a bit of work though!

The colors are so pretty and looks really natural. They are really flowy, theres a lot of movement in this. I really like all the floral and nature themed drawings, they are really nice to look at it and the detail is also great too.

I'm a purple-person. ^^ Between the mood of the image and the type of orchid I drew, this was a good choice for this, I thought.

Totally, orchids are such a delicate and beautiful flower, it also happened to be one of my favourite!

They are such exotic beauty, indeed. I love to look at them, but haven't tried my hands at raising them. I'm not usually a very emotional type, either. I just realized that this doodle was about all those things that are kind of foreign to me.

Sarcasticalness In reply to aruarian-dancer [2009-10-05 23:13:16 +0000 UTC]

I heard raising them were very difficult. Things that are foreign are always interesting in so many ways.

lol, raising orchids is not as hard as you think ^^' the one you drew, Phalaenopsis, can grow on a windowsill easily, if the window is on the western or eastern side. It needs watering once a week, and waterspraying twice a day. As simple as it is

Also: FAVED *w*
