Spent more time on these than on the soldiers. I really want to to a bigger piece of like 100 of these on one sheet of paper, but who knows

[jewels]

love those. that's my kind of art right there.

[bluemovers]

I really love these.

[bluemovers]

sometimes when i have a bunch of pens/pencils that are running out of ink or getting too short to use, i destroy them on the page:

[jewels]

fixy linky

[bluemovers]

were my links fucked?

[jewels]

it works now.

[husbands]

I'd like that last one more without the text

using almost empty markers is a good idea

[jewels]

i've been kinda mad at my uniballs lately, i break them too easily. is there a similar pen that i'll have a harder time breaking?
I love the way they flow on the page when they are working, but then i get all excited and they stop working.

this is like word-for-word every grad school painting critique i had from 2004 - 2006

and yeah, i was listening to Take Care

[jewels]

a drawing that i'm probably going to do up in water color

[brittle]

i like that, jewels!

[brittle]

[manvstrees]

text usually improves a piece
and especially does so in the case of those old bluemove pieces

fuck a crit

wow that is a weird video, it kind of creeped me out at some points but I can't really figure out why

thanks to everyone who said nice things about my recent drawings I appreciate it

[zamboni]

brittle those things are fucking insane

[parapet]

that last wood piece is amazing

[Alice]

Did this quick, small painting tonight.

[brittle]

that's great work alice.

what are the mats and dimensions?

i went in on my figurative painting today with fresh eyes and totally reworked it.


much better.

[jewels]

alice, that looks like oil pastels.

[brittle]

shit. forgot to fix the ghost break cables

[Alice]

Brittle, love that reworking, that green was weighing it down before.

The dimensions of that little painting are like 7.5"x11.5". And those are like liquidy watercolor paints on plastic Yupo paper, so it has a really smooth effect. The great thing about watercolors on Yupo is they're impermanent and can be changed/wiped away at any time if you just wet the paper and wipe the paint away. Kinda weird but also kinda awesome.

[brittle]

ah. makes sense, felt like finger-paints at first sight. good stuff, keep it up.

[bat house]

Damn Brittle those wood pieces are gorgeous. It would be amazing if you did a set of those with real wood planks - you say they're prints? I would definitely pick up a print if you felt like selling one.

Your painting skills have also improved so fast over the course of this thread.

the demands of hand painting it kind of destroyed the artists life (amongst other things), so yeah, something about it is really affecting

i think text distracts me from finding personal meaning in paintings/drawings etc... which i find important. especially when looking at something in real life as opposed to a still, i more often than not just want the dude to draw and stop attempt being a poet.

my first thoughts are "this is a song lyric" and it just lames it all up for me. then i don't buy it and you bozos eat bread sandwiches for three more weeks.
