Description Painting only:


My goal with this painting was to turn every element from the template into different from the original concept. So, even if a butterfly fit with my flowers theme, I had to turn it into something else.

Aww thank you so much! That is a lovely comment; thank you!!
haha Yeah, in a way, I like making my life complicated, I guess but it was a fun challenge, trying to look at negative space and coming up with different things to do with the lines. The hardest was the hand that became a snail with streamers - especially the streamers; I had no idea what to do with those fingers. XD

Oh God, it completely looks another painting!! I am not a critic person, but the watercolor look so realistic, and the woodpecker (I love birds) is so cute!!

And I'm super happy you liked it! And that it's cheerful.

All I'm gonna say is there were a lot of entries for this, but this one was by far my favorite. (The ocean one with fish was pretty good too) but from the colors to all the unique ways to hide the weird lines it is beautiful.

Also woodpeckers and flowers for the win

For real though, this is stunning. 10/10 would put in art gallery ;D

I did manage to make something out of it!
I'm surprised myself...god I hate tracing though

I made the sketch on a regular printing paper and now transferred it to watercolor paper...still need to add details.

What people do for a badge
Others would say I'm nuts

LualaDy In reply to TokyoMoonlight [2017-08-12 10:25:34 +0000 UTC]

I also want to do it, but since there is no deadline, I'm taking my time ^^
I also had all the group features to post, quite a lot of work!!!

TokyoMoonlight In reply to LualaDy [2017-08-12 10:35:41 +0000 UTC]

I'm also all over the place

I will make it quick as possible just to get this badge and to upload something...but don't be mistaken...it still needs to look awesome
I know if I won't do it NOW, I'll never do it.

I need to make a world watercolor month feature also...so many artworks    will need 2 or 3 journals...I guess...

LualaDy In reply to TokyoMoonlight [2017-08-12 10:42:49 +0000 UTC]

and me... so many art to make
and all I'm doing is find excuses

I made again an unwearable top yesterday
And now that I have tons of scraps I want to make something from it
I have an idea but I need a pair of shorts (or jeans to cut) and I don't have
So I'll try to find one tomorrow at a garage sale

busy busy
if all goes well, pictures in a few days

Hahaha XD I tell you, though, turning those hands (especially the one on top) into something else was a huge challenge. Yay for crazy ideas at 1:00am XD

Thank you so much!

TokyoMoonlight In reply to barananduen [2017-08-11 20:05:46 +0000 UTC]

yay, for crazy ideas!
Well, for a website dedicated to art you expect some better looking templates   

But I'll give it a try...I take it as a challenge ...game on!   

I just hate to upload some ugly thing just to get a badge.
Like last year...now I have to live with that ugly monster (and my watchers also   but I got the badge

barananduen In reply to TokyoMoonlight [2017-08-11 20:18:56 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah! Mine ended up looking like a cross between a dog and a horse XD
It's hidden away in a subfolder in my gallery

Last year's badge was so pretty, too! The 16th and 17th Bday badges are the prettiest bday badges I've seen to date. :3
Another badge I like (but don't have) is the pelican one

TokyoMoonlight In reply to barananduen [2017-08-11 20:30:49 +0000 UTC]

The colors are awesome with that template we couldn't do miracles

subfolders are awesome for this.

The badges do look better than the dA badge  ...I don't like to new icon still not.

I'm mostly interested in the llama badges Just recently got promoted to fancy llama  But I wish they would eat more and get more chubby
