Artist's Comments

i was on another computer listening to Strange Attraction by The Cure and i came up with this.

the cure were the first band i listened to while drawing, THE first (i think), that was 3 years ago.

the frame is crooked, but i think it looks okay that way. line quality could be better.

for each side i listened to different music. on the left i listened to eRa and M83. and the right was nightwish and afi.

i dont really know whether to be pleased with this or not. i know the female's left arm is shorter than the right.... it looks pretty bad.

i go through mood swings, day and night are different, some of you know this already. during day i am very irritable, angry, and feel a lot of guilt and regret, music doesn't sound as good. but i have better self control. i basically wake up in the morning and instantly hate everything until breakfast.
night is like... well pretty awesome, i'm much nicer...

my fingers are tired... drawing all day, + figure drawing class.

a little cliche an idea, sigh.

I like the contrast between the two character and the way they are complementary ( not sure of my sentence )
I like also the dress which is melting with the background. Maybe, the man's right hand is strange... I'm not sure... About the woman, maybe her breast could be bigger, as she's wearing a long line bra, moreover, maybe the top of the dress could be more waisted... Holy crap... I'm acting like a pervert...

:heart: Oh wow. Oh wow oh wow.

You couldn't possibley have known, there's absolutely now way you could have done, but there are so many links to the way my partner as I are. At present it isn't always so, but he plans to wear all white as soon as I can start to manufacture more clothes for him. White gothic styles, as these are hard to come by, need to be made specially, and as I'm fairly confident at textiles, I can do this job. I wear all black.

And all the crucifixes and vines, those remind me of roses winding around...

What a beautiful picture. ^^ You manage to create such dramatic images, they always have such an impact! And the clothes designs are always superb. Well done.

I have exams right now so I'm afraid I haven't been around to comment on all of your art, but I've seen a lot of it through quick online browsings whilst I'm on my break, and I just wanted to say, your current output is fantastic. =) Keep it up!

HAHA... gosh i can never get the in between wither, i have had people say they were too big, then too small, so it's driving me a little batty... yeah models are probably a good idea, though hard to find good ones.

that is weird, i had never heard of white gothic fashion, but then again i don't hear of much :/

exams exams haha, i never studied for exams, it's so strange to me hearing that people are taking such pains to prepare for them. but most people shoot higher than i do... i was a bad student.

No problem. :)

It's rare, but of course, he's a rare sort of person. ;P

I don't know...I've never overly worked, but then again I work hard during the year. I especially want to get good grades in Art, English, and Latin, as I'm taking them next year, along with Classics and Critical Thinking. =) I'm a bit of an elitist and can be very competitive, and exams are certainly no exception. ^^;
