Artist's Comments

This is a very poor reproduction of an even poorer drawing, completely lacking in composition. I am frustrated with it because of this, and the only reason I'm putting it up is because I think it is fairly accurate. This was my failed attempt doing a piece of art with any bit of concept behind it. Le sigh.
Charcoal and conte.

Edit: Thank you all so much! One of my beliefs about my art is that my art is here for other people to enjoy. If even one person can get something out of it, then it was well worth my time in making it. Thank you especially to ^zeruch (who I have been a fan of for a long time) for recognizing my work, it's definately a proud feeling to be so highly complimented with a DD from someone who I myself hold up as a model.

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-10-14

Self-portrait Body by ~pley is something tha artist herself appears not content with. That is ok, because I think it is a rather warm, well drawn exercise that evokes a certainly seasonal and regional feel. (Featured by `zeruch)

I love the colours in it, and the feelings in this pic - there's this sense of waiting for something, or savouring the moment, sitting in the field with a warm spring breeze :-)

There's a strange shadow on the right leg where it's folded at the knee, and the lighting in general around that area don't seem consistent with the direction of light, overall. But otherwise I think it is a good drawing, and I agree with missdjt that you are a bit hard on yourself :-)

Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
:iconwilby3000:
Don't you just hate it when people like work that you don't like?

Anyway, I like this quite a bit. I think the overall composition of it, combined with the autumn colours makes it very appealing. Good choice to crop it the way you did, makes it original. You deserved the DD, even if you don't like it yourself.

I love the warm feeling in the picture! Even if you don't like it, I do and the beauty is in the eye of the watcher, right? Though I'd like to think I understand you... I get really frustrated with my "work" too... I should call 'em doodles compared to this! And more about THIS picture: I really like the natural composition and the folds of the clothes. And, you seem to be a master in drawing human anatomy!
Congratulations for the DD!!
