Description i officially blame this picture on the secret, a film that discusses the law of attraction as the secret to life, i.e. if you think about debt, no matter if the thoughts are good or bad, you will eventually attract debt. one part was on relationships, and it talked about this guy who set the intention by painting a picture of himself with some woman and then how he wound up married a year later.

...so yes, that's me... and he's a possibility.

...no names, cj.

Your work and detail in the anatomy is amazing! Just curious though, did this ever work for you? Did you find "him"?

...GUH, so beautiful! This is what I get for being so behind on my devwatch stuff... I miss beautiful things like this! But now that I've seen it, I can't help but fave it! The colors are truly lovely, so warm and romantic. The pose is gorgeous, too, and I love the way your face and his (whoever he turns out to be ) and his almost touch. The way his arms come around you is so tender, and his hands are so well-drawn, far better than I could do. I just love this!

aww, i'm glad you like it so much! the colors were great fun to work with, especially when i did the ivy background and overlay, but my favorite part might've been the sketching process. it's really too bad most of his face got shadowed because he looks pretty hot in the lineart. i'm with you on loving the hand. i have this thing where i just adore guys' hands so i put a lot of effort into making his look as realistic as i could. thanks for commenting!

Your anatomy is just amazing =O. The hand on him is really realistic, same is to be said for the facial detail on you. *Is in love with the picture*

iamymai In reply to Serophima [2006-12-18 21:31:17 +0000 UTC]

thank u, my dear! one of the things i always seem to love about guys are their hands. i really, really wanted to get his hand right, which was nearly impossible to do since i didn't have any ref. photos. i'm happy with it anyways, though.

...and let me tell you, my face was so freaking hard to get right. why does it always have to be so difficult to draw oneself?

Serophima In reply to iamymai [2006-12-19 04:36:16 +0000 UTC]

Maybe it's because you try to make the drawn version of you as accurate to yourself as possible. Well at least I had that trouble in Art class xP.

It is very passionate, accentuated by the warm colors. I like the sheer cloth and the vine pattern in the background. And does the guy count even when you've darkened him so? He seems mysterious, lurking in the shadows.

oh, the guy counts. i wish his entire face would've worked with the concept. he looked pretty hot.
