Description My most recent art assignment, object poem was the topic...and this is mine...I used watercolors, watercolor pencils and colored pencils....I think it turned out ok, but there are a few spots I don't like...It just kind of reminded me of the idea forever, with the wedding ring on an old hand...

Excellent color! A little more blending of color in a couple of spots would soften it a bit though.

dholms [2004-09-03 02:17:28 +0000 UTC]

my.
you draw really really well.
yet, i see so few drawings in your gallery.
what's up with that?
i'm really digging the mix of colors and mediums.
i've never tried watercolor pencils myself,...only
prismacolors.
nice job.
i'm sure you got an 'A'.
didn't you?
don't lie!

corruptangel [2004-04-11 05:10:29 +0000 UTC]

I really like the contrast of colours used for this. the original photo, while moving in and of itself, doesn't have this lively creative impact. Rather, the original has a sentimental reflection, whereas this, has lovely colours and really highlight the textures in the hand.

Looks hugely like [link] Just drawn instead of a photograph. Might want to give them credit or risk a PV, Because it really isn't a resemblance its dead on. But good work on making it such a perfect likeness...

kitadoll76 [2004-01-18 06:48:59 +0000 UTC]

This is amazing, the hands look like sand ripples, i really like all the color you used too, it almost looks like its decaying

trinket In reply to kitadoll76 [2004-01-18 14:54:53 +0000 UTC]

yeah, I guess now that's what a few people have said...and that wasn't my intent, but I guess it could work for the idea...like it's SO old that it's decaying. But yeah, that's what I like most about this is the colors. Thanks for your comments!

Lovely work, how did you like using water colour pencils? I've never had the oportunity to try them out.
I like the colour you used in the painting, you definately were not shy, and it is great. I love the title and idea you came up with, brillant.

The pinky seems strong over-all, I think just too many dark shadowy wrinkles?
Again, excellent work.

trinket In reply to jibrille [2003-11-27 03:53:58 +0000 UTC]

I don't mind using watercolor pencils...although I'm not very skilled with them...so I don't really know what I'm doing...and yeah...the pinky was kind of where I started so I wasn't real clear on what I was doing...so it didn't turn out as well...but thanks for the comments!!

I like how you used those colors. They give the impression of oldness. But the contrast with the ring makes it look like a small shiny remaining hope...
