Description Yes, I am afraid there is a sad clown in the background!! I know some people just don't like clowns very much, despite their harmless nature Anyway, this is painted with watercolor and some acrylic. And inks, too! And sad clowns. Sad clowns were used.

Outwardly the sad clown scares me. But secretly I love him.

Beautiful!! You always seem to put this dark beauty in your images, and I love that. ^^
Does that man on the left have a name, and was he in some of your other pieces as well? I'm curious...if he's the same guy, I adore him very much. x3

Oooh, really? Well I tend to see this same-looking figure in your artwork...maybe only a couple of pictures though. [laughs] You need to combine him into one...then I can love on him all the time. x3

That sad clown is so terribly eerie.

That aside, I must say that her dress is so fantastically beautiful. I want one!! Those exact colors, too.

Why is it that whenever I see something you've done, I'm always blown away?

I probably understand your being blown away less! XD Ha, but thank you so much.

Thanks, I'm glad you do. You see, I like clowns, but lots of people don't! I'm not sure why, but they seem so harmless to me.

Cruzle In reply to jkearney [2006-01-31 07:34:59 +0000 UTC]

I'm not especially fond of them, but I don't hate them, either. I just liked the fact that he was in there... seemed very spontaneous and I liked it! X3

This is a beautiful, beautiful work... I'm one of those people who dislikes clowns, but you see... this one is so cute! Poor clown, he looks so sad. Is he in love with the lady and can't compete with the handsome man next to her? Or is he just peeping to tell everyone of the lady's affairs? Wondeful work!

jkearney In reply to OrangeClockwork [2006-01-29 06:26:18 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Well, he is sad about something--I kind of like the first theory, it's romantic, but I didn't have a specific story in mind.

magmanorn [2006-01-29 05:45:04 +0000 UTC]

This is beautiful! Though I got a question, how did the acrylic react with the watercolour and inks? I'm afraid to try it.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

jkearney In reply to magmanorn [2006-01-29 06:24:36 +0000 UTC]

Well, you have to make sure the watercolors and inks are dry first. For example, I used watercolors for the base color of the cloth in the background, and the little flowers and gold are acrylic. So I made sure that the base was dry, and then used the acrylic on top. You just have to be careful, sometimes the watercolor (even dry) might blend together a little bit. That can have a cool effect, too. However, it's usually fine for doing detail like this.
