Description No classes today, so I get a re-do of yesterday, which is great, cause yesterday SUCKED. Note: when on the phone with potential employers, refrain from calling them by the completely wrong name. Ugh.

Snow snow snow so romantic. What is it about floating people that is so romantic? Is it the idea of leaving everything behind and having no obligations? With your feet off the ground, maybe love is enough.

doot doot brush and ink and watercolor and photoshop.

"doot doot brush"....a reference to Craig Thompson? I thought it looked a tad Thompson-y before I read the description. Your work seems to take some inspiration from his, which is great. This is really beautiful!

This is wonderful - you managed to capture all the joy and even the sense of cold itself from being out in the snow.

This is great. I have a soft-spot for snowy scenes drawn with tons on negative space. Very Sean Murphy/Watterson-ish.

Your works always caus so much … wistfulness in me. I guess that say's something good about your skills as a painter, and somethin bad about my insides.

This is so cute! We got 20+ here, but my town has an army of snow plows out there to make sure we don't miss any more school (GRRRRR!!!). At least these two have each other to keep themselves warm!!!!!! I have a cat. He smells like fish.

You always seem to come up with the neatest way to render things. I love the way the snow hangs on the branches.

This instantly reminds me of the scene in Scott Pilgrim vs. the Universe where Scott and KNives are walking down the street. I agree. Snow is totally romantic.

Floating people? I think maybe it's a womb-ish comfort thing. Sweet illustration!

I did a double take on the title since I just did something called "Snow Day" the other day as well. XD
Ah, such a lovely picture and idea... Snow really does have a sense of quiet wonder to it. When you're not buried in a blizzard that is.

SelenaGuardi [2011-01-12 20:55:43 +0000 UTC]

What is it about floating people that is so romantic?

I think it's the carelessness of it, just leaving everything that pulls you down behind, being free, happy... those things Feeling light and in love, something like that.

Really nice drawing
