First...I want to thank everyone for their comments on the fonts! That was very helpful and stopped me from being so obsessed about it. *laughs* I've been visiting a lot of different font websites lately and having a blast seeing all the neat stuff that's on them...one can never have too many useful tools at hand.
Thought for the day...(seeing that I can't seem to find a proper intro to this page)...Can an artist give a painting true life, by their inspiration and excitment of painting it? Or is it the veiwer of the painting that gives life to it, through their own emotions and imagination?
^///^ Thank you both, Kristen and ctupa for the very lovely comments! Kristen..my goodness...same for me as well...Wilde is one of my favorate authors of all...and this book...I just LOVE to peices. lol...I have ALL of Wildes writings...even his short stories...so beautiful and sad. Ohh...The Happy Prince...I know...makes me cry as well.
oooh wow... I love that you're doing a Literary Adaptation. :) this is one of my top-ten (or at least twenty) favorite books of all time... *sigh* hot men frolicking about!!
Hey, if you haven't, you should check out Wilde's short stories/fables... they're some of the MOST HEARTBREAKING THINGS you will EVER EXPERIENCE. The Selfish Giant, for one (it makes me cryyyyy!!! We had a story-book of it when I was young..) and The Happy Prince, which is so sad that it should have some sort of warning label.
anyway, yay yay yayy!
Goooodd answers you guys...*is very impressed*. I wondered how people would answer this.
Aghammer, Prank and Sunny...I agree wholeheartedly with all of you all on your points. ^_^
Webcomics heh...*laughs* Yuppers...this is that animooz thing...*manga actually* that is picking up some speed over on this side of the globe...big eyes are not always a part of it...but I like doing the eyes big...makes them pools of emotion.
You might give life and emotion to a painting.. but everyone percieves it differently. One paiting; multiple diverse lifes! That is, said simply.. ^^
And I LOVEEE this comic.. Your artwork.. is... beautiful.
Both, it is the relationship between the artist and the viewer through the work that gives life to the it. In my opinion.
Without the artist, you have no painting and without people to view it, there is no acknowledgment of it's existence beyond the artist himself. Sort of a tree falling in the woods with no one around to hear it, does it still make a sound? The tree would be the work of art and gravity the artist.
Very nice. Maybe each person that views a painting gives it a new / different life? The artist has a view and emotions / thoughts about a painting and each viewer adds their own thoughts/emotions, etc. The painting becomes a part of them. The interesting question is do they, in some way, become a part of the painting ;)
I love your panel work btw with the black background, etc. Lovely
