And yes, the number 42 has a meaning - and I guess you might know which

Initially I was not so happy with it. but a friend convinced me not to donate this to his next art project but upload it instead.

So this is for you [link]

According to the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy it is the meaning of life, the univers and everything.

Don't know why you hadn't spotted it before. But maybe you had to have a few looks, before it finally appealed to you.

Nice colors till it is small.when i make it large it gets pixallete.
I am confused because the true quality is gone with bad photography.
I want to see it clearer.

Lilli28 In reply to Ginger-Biscuit [2010-04-13 22:01:29 +0000 UTC]

Yes, but I am probably crushing your opinion of my skills, if I tell you that initially this was meant to be just a part of 2 or 3 linked canvases.
While painting it I already knew it would not work out. So I built up more surface to hide the crap painting underneath and just painted without having anything specific in mind. Actually I had already condemed it, when my friend said, that he still thought that there was something about it and I should upload it.
So today I finally gave it another try after having made up my mind what I saw in it. I think, this time it really worked

Well, that's a big compliment!
I am working on several ideas at the moment at least 1 of them starts to have so much paint and modelling paste on it, it starts to look like a 3D model

Ginger-Biscuit In reply to Lilli28 [2010-04-14 12:09:00 +0000 UTC]

haha brilliant! i am actually going to invest in some proper modeling paste as i am still using polyfiller XD. I am working on my exam project at the moment and i really don't like it but i am just going to push through this next 3 weeks and then its done! wooo! and in the summer i can get back to doing work i fully enjoy i have so many ideas i just don't have the time hehe. but soon!

I know what you mean, it is so frustrating, if you don't have time I'm usually late home from work and even if I start with something the fading daylight doesn't help. Weekends are just not long enough either
Polifiller is not that bad, actually, but there are so many other interessting pastes around; haven't tried them all yet, but I'm getting there.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for your exams - I am sure you'll be doing fine!

no problem, just go on! I actually found it quite interessting what you wrote about watching people on the train. That's something I can really relate to. I could see myself again sitting on the train to London or squashed on the tube watching my fellow travellers

But what's the question?
This looks like a very angry sky and stormy sea with a ship, dashed on the rocks before a headland.
Love the colours, movement and textures you've created.
