Description I really like that shade of red for hair. I sincerely apologize if it does nothing but contribute to the overall obnoxious contrast of the piece.

There's not much to say here, I really liked drawing this picture with no theme or character in mind - however painful as the smug little art block ate away at my head. Coloring was all hell, however, with my - now triple clicking - mouse.

*sigh* I need to learn how to properly do vectors fast to make my life easier.

Anyways, this piece actually does have a title, lettered into the circular frame. There is also one ballerina and three animals in there. If anyone out there can CORRECTLY tell me the three types of animals in the design, along with the picture's proper title, you get a free commission from yours truly. Again, only for anyone out there who happens to be interested, I don't expect many of you to come flocking at this small prospect.



Tools: scanned pencil drawing - along with a circular compass; colored and lined in Photoshop CS3
Time: on and off for three days
Actual Size: 2000 x 2566 px

Again, critiques and comments are more than welcome! (Please)


Thanks for looking

i love this, i got "Freak Life" and the elephant and what looked like a bear but must not be (after reading the comments to see if anyone else saw it) .. since i don't see any ears or a tail i'm shooting for a hampster or gerbil. and i see the ballerina, and this may be a long shot, but does the ballerina and the dot beside her make a cat face? Cuz i sooo see one. (i saw the snail too) other than that i'm totally at a loss for the 3rd one. Proud of myself for seeing 2 tho

Thank you so much for taking the time to meticulously look at my work! Really, I'm honored.

Indeed you got "Freak Life"--though it is purposefully spelled as "Freek Life" (with two e's to make it indeed a free freak life, if that makes any sense at all). You are incredibly and interpretively imaginative for finding a cat face in that! Congratulations for correctly identifying the elephant and spotting the bear-like animal. Sadly, there is no intended snail (though I am starting to see it now). That still leaves the third animal and the identification of the bear-like creature . . . but again, thank you for taking the time to comment--it would have been a great joy and pleasure for me to have done a commission for you.

P.S. Your own work is just lovely.

thank you, yours is so beautiful so i'm really honored for you to say that

That third animal is in there somewhere and I have a feeling once someone finds it i'm going to kick myself for not seeing it, it's probably right in front of my face lol. and freedom to be freaky is awesome.

I read "Freek Life" and see a snail (top left, right of ballerina), an elephant (top right), and a bear (lower left, by her thumb).

Wonderfully drawn figure. You can read a lot into the expression- is it bored, disdainful, maybe a little haggard or angry- and she has a nice pose, shoulders pressed forward in an authoritative way.

Thank you so much for your comment! I was trying to try out some new poses - so thank you for recognizing my efforts. The body position isn't as natural as I'd like it to be, but, that's what practice and improvement is for.

And you are correct!!! The title is "Freek Life!" Sadly, there is no snail, and the lower left animal is not a bear. You did get the elephant right, though.

Haha, thank you!

I thought there were some pretty obvious designs in the frame . . . but, oh well.
