Description
Prepared. Sanitized. Packaged. Ready for mass consumption.Technical: Freehand photoshop airbrush painting. PS6.0. Wacom. The size shown is the size that I worked with.
I used this photo of Christina Aguilera as reference for the pose: [link]
I've been trying to do more themed pieces, instead of works done just for the sake of photo-realism. I don't know that this conveys what I intended, though. I think she may be too cutesy looking. I've got a modified version on my destop, and I think this makes a kinda nice wallpaper. I'm considering releasing it as one, but I'm not sure anyone else is interested in having her on their desktop.

You got tons of comments for this and I see why. It is very good. Nice idea and I think that you *should* release the wallpaper as well I know quite a few people would like to use it.

That is truly an excellent piece of work there! It delivers a very serious massage quit effectively with out seeming preachy. Only thing is the gradients in her shadow bug me a bit, but now I a nitpickingβ¦that is favorite worthy!

Wow, great painting, and it's so true about the music industry as of the late. Prepackaged, in mass production, and force fed down our throats and made to like it. Wonderfull concept

You mean pop stars are not real???? But their so unique!!
Wicked work - I like the idea behind it... processed crap for the mindless masses - cookie cutter bands.
I always pondered the thought of what a kid of 10 would enjoy if you put them in a room with all the music in the world- if they had been isolated from any music since birth... Miles Davis? Bach? Pavaratti? Spears? Sasha? Tribal chants? Classical? Folk? etc... without corp infulences and only life experiences to shape a mind to appreciate a certain sound would be a very interesting study. Would definitely illustrate how much of the popular top 40 chart is purchased due to corp influences.

awesome awesome Awesome... heh.
i realized from the thumbnail and the title what it was. i love the concept, and what you've done..
π: 0 β©: 0
The thumbnail on the main page does it no justice... I thought it was just a photo manipulation of her being fat! This is very good. Much better than the thumb on the index.

this girl is frightening to begin with!! you've made her uber frightening... kinda like seeing through all the bullshit and getting to whats real about her - not much...

it's a cool message you transmit with this deviation (at least the way I see it, that is). and you expressed it in a excellent way.

Excellent drawing, very realistic. However, my favorite part would be the idea. Maybe you should try drawing strings on the puppet
Great work

In the actual picture of Christina, she looks like a cheap Oshawa whore. And let me tell you, our whores are dirty.

The message has been done to death but you managed to show it in an original and compelling way. I too would love to see this as a desktop wallpaper!
