Description
... or 'THE SOCIAL LIVE PARADE'...or
... 'THE HUMAN TROPHIES EXIBITION'
Nevermind!
This was made with my Wacom Volito tablet. It's all freehand.
I had this idea some time ago but I was too affraid to draw the transparencies. Have been avoiding it...
So, I finally found some courage to let it all go. It didn't hurt that much. I'm not too pessimist about the result. Although I needed some reference to draw the animal body.
That, in case it doesn't look like one, it is a Fissalia ,a living organism (or several organisms each one with a specific function) that lives at the surface. I read about it some time ago and it really fascinated me.
It represents the society here...
Ok! That's enough!
So, hope you like it. This is nothing visually spectacular but I decided to submit it because it is important to me.
Thank you!

Very nice, I really like it. However, it feels like the baby's body has been stretched on the y-axis. Maybe it's just me. oo;

Thank you so much. This is indeed a special baby. Maybe his body had to adapt to that strange mmm environment? Well, who knows?

Damn this fucking rocks! Hey i have you on my watch how come i didn't get this pic? That sucks, kicks DA.

Paula! Sorry I've been so neglectful in commenting lately. This is phenomenal work as always--I really look up to you. I have a Sennelier pastel that is the *exact same shade of blue as the blue at the very top of this pic and it is by far my favorite color--it's so gorgeously blue I want to EAT it. In anycase, a great piece of art--you didn't need to put any words underneath it at all to deliver your message and I think that's a sign of truly well done visual art.
However I'm glad you did because now I'm looking into these creatures and it's FASCINATING. so thanks to you on a visual as well as scientific level.
Much love!

I'm glad you like this piece. It means so much, coming from you.
That shade of blue puts me in a trance. It's my favourite colour too.
Thank you so much, my friend for your words. They're always prescious!
I hope everything's fine there!
Much love!

My god. This is simply amazing. There's something about this piece that fascinates me, but I am not sure what is it.
I am stunned by the amount of details you gave everything, and the colours you used. The idea of the picture is really interesting too.
I dont really know what to say, other than you did a superb job in this

Thank you so much. Yes, it is a portuguese man-of-war. I didn't know the english term for it when I wrote my description. Yes, he sure is an immune baby.

Hello!
Thank you so much. I'm glad you like it.
The fact that you had called it "shot" makes me happy. I really wanted to make it look like a shot.
Again, thank you for everything.
