OH SWEET.

1. basket.jpg
charcoal. beautiful. muted orange/red of the pumpkin. mmmm, it feels like black and white photos that you've sort of colorized afterwards, a little bit unnatural, but very still and very calm and very soft.

2. basket2.jpg
ditto, but even more so. I love your choice in colors. brilliant in the detail / lack thereof, like how you selectively chose where to draw in the little details (the veins on whatever vegetable that is, I don't know my vegetables), and where to just let it be (the quick color/shading on the carrots)

3. bone.jpg
GORGEOUS shape, I love bones they have so many pretty shadows and odd, organic shapes, and you've captured it so well. :X

4. book.jpg
cool angle! nice and dark, makes me think of a libary or something, in the evening. dim reading lamps and hush hush.

5. harvest.jpg
again with the beautiful colors! the contrast between your black lines and the grey washes... so cool. :)

6. leaves.jpg
ack. you know how I like bones? I ALSO LIKE LEAVES. wonderfully crinkly shapes! I like how easy you make it look to shade them in all their crinkliness. just washes of black/grey. so nice. the lines, hatching and stuff, are also great, especially with the washes. ooh.

7. shell.jpg
I adore your line quality.

8. skull.jpg
nice eyesockets!! mm pretty.




... and what do you MEAN not a treat of any kind? I love them!

heeeeee! <33333!
wow i really didn't expect you to fb me in detail! *giggles happily*
oh man, i had to share 'cause i really hated scanning them 'cause most of the drawings are 18x24 thus really way too huge. like, the book looks much better when you can see the whole book, but o_0

eeeeeeeee!!1 *dances* thankees >:D
i totally think i suck most of the time 'cause everyone's drawings are a) smoother b) shaded better c) more realistic and d) more intricate. which basically means they actually work on them ><;; and also, i suck ><
but! i think i've been working harder, a bit. like, i spent way too much time on that skull. or maybe i was just tired -.-
and then i spend 3 hours drawing a rib-cage and then d'oh!! i get the angle all wrong. life drawing sucks my soul through my teeth, man. hee.

it's a lot easier drawing the small things (book, bone, shell) that are right in front of you-- the angles are much much clearer to me. it's like i've got some Angle Dysfunction or something. heh.
i'm glad they work aesthetically on some level~:)
i'm proud of the skull teeth. you liking the eye-sockets made me giggle 'cause they look kinda crooked to me. *laughs*
so now i've amended "i suck at this" to "but not as hard as i could" ~:))

You know, it's interesting, because various people have these ways of writing that contribute to my impressions of their 'voice'. You have a rather distinctive style, what with the no caps and the use of -this - and the frequent excited emoticoning. So you have a 'voice' in my head that goes with your words, not a pitch or a tone or anything, but a kind of rhythm and a way of speaking-in-my-head. And you actually sound nothing like this little construct of mine from your written language, which was what made me realize that I even had a little construct. So, interesting. :)

I know exactly what you mean, 'cause I'm semi-aware of a "voice" in my head changing slightly depending on even what character is speaking in the same story, forget different writers entirely. I think this tone-type-thing depends on the sorts of things one is saying, though, and how one says them in writing, which doesn't really translate into speaking especially for people whose diction is wildly different in those mediums (like me).

Like, my whole vocabulary and rhythm is different when I write-- I get more verbose, more metaphorical, more visual, moremoremore. In speaking, I'm less-- but I'm more immediate and unfiltered, I suppose. In writing I feel unfiltered in another way. I've always been aware of the divide between my speaking voice and my writing voice because it does change dramatically-- even in terms of my perception of myself. I become calmer when I write, more composed, more aware. I'm much more shy and reactive and reluctant normally. Writing it instead of saying it sort of frees me, and that probably has an effect on how I speak (not just the actual words).

Although I'm not always as much of a spazz as I was in the recording, obviously :>
I'd like to think so, anyway~:)

Heh, you do the tones for the different characters? Go you! That is one of my major writing weaknesses - all my characters speak in exactly the same way.

Yeah, I know what you mean. When I write I have a sort of 'voice' that I use, which is also generally the voice that I *think* in. It's completely different from my actual voice, and when speaking I tend to go very quickly and repeat things often, forget my train of thought and end up completely confused. Then my thinking-writing-voice gets filtered through speech and often ends up alien to how I meant it to sound, which is annoying. Also in writing I have a formal kind of style, while my speech is actually rather slangy. So, yeah: writing is the good. Thoughts ---> written always works better than thoughts ---> mouth. And talking to a computer is weird, so I'm sure you don't sound like that all the time, although it didn't sound at all bad to me. :D Are you planning to do any more of them?

And you can draw. Really draw well. Really. I think the bone was my favorite, but I also loved the leaves. And teh skull of course, but how can you not like skull?

yah, i think mostly i don't even know how well 'cause i never try all that much (even though i want to!). sigh. but yeah, i worked the most on the bone. sad, since that's one of the first things we drew in class -.-
hee. yeah. the skull was fun 'cause at least i know how people look like, a bit. hee! >:D
