Description Really pathetic title. I'll think of something better later.

I will slaughter the next person who claims impressionism is easy. Frankly, I'm not surprised Van Gogh killed himself, because if I had to paint like that...dear God.

Okay. 7 hours. Almost continuously. The worst thing is I know I won't win this contest ([link] ), because there are artists out there who are 100 times better at this sort of thing. But I don't care anymore. ♥

EDIT: Turns out, I am I finalist! -Does a jig- If you like this painting, go HERE ([link] ) and vote for it! Then hop on other to the other pictures and vote for them too, 'cause they're all gorgeous and deserve some love.

The Eleventh Doctor belongs to the BBC and the Moffatman, Matt Smith belongs to his wonder, entirely bonkers self.
Starry Night is the masterpiece of Mr. Van Gogh

Absoultely fantastic, you got the detail of the Doctor perfectly and the surreal painting of Van Gogh.
And yes, impressionism is a bitch... just ask someone whose tried to rework the TARDIS exploding image... I agree with you entirely...
Anyway stunning and gorgeous picture...

What do you mean 'you know you won't win'!? This is amazing! I'd actually be surprised if you didn't come somewhere near winning. The vincent van gogh painting even seems to fit with the doctor like he's actually standing there rather than just being put in front of a picture of another style. Well done.

You're too hard on yourself. What a gorgeous portrait, very van Gogh indeed. Only 7 hours? Wow. Utterly bonkers kick-ass beautiful. You captured Eleven's young-old pensive wisdom perfectly.

Light-element In reply to Fey-dark [2010-11-16 00:19:22 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Keep in mind, though, it's easier to work 7 hours straight on a painting when the alternative is doing homework.

PencilHead1313 [2010-11-15 22:39:35 +0000 UTC]

wow.....just wow. This is fantastic! Really great job! Of course the Starry Night has been my favorite painting before I knew what "great art" was (or who Van Gogh was for that matter), but still....this is brilliant. I totally hope you win.

Light-element In reply to PencilHead1313 [2010-11-16 00:15:18 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so much! Starry Night is basically my favorite painting of all time, too. I saw it at the MoMA in NYC of all places when I was about 8 years old...I'll never forget it. <3
