es ist linkslastig, die erhobenen hände zeigen alle so nach links, auch die körperhaltung(en... das schürt irgendwie die erwartung... da was zu entdecken oder so. aber da is nix...

die linkslastigkeit ist wieder das resultat meiner fehlenden kompositionsplanung...^^

I love the bleak landscape! And the slightly exaggerated colours of the figures just makes them stand out ever more!
Awesome!

Stunning. The cracks in the floor and the skin tones could be real. This seems to imply both freedom and desolation at the same time.

i wasn't sure about the skin tones...thought they look a bit unreal. it's not easy to get a realistic flesh tone...

scheherazadenerai In reply to reality-must-die [2010-07-04 12:20:03 +0000 UTC]

I suppose realistically they'd be a paler colourm reflecting the greyscale, but the way they are now, they stand out and aren't part of the landscape

You should be content... What an eye for anatomy They look so frail, yearning, and the one in the centre looks almost scared, hesitating.. Belle! *bravo*

Wow..mir bleibt die Spucke weg, großartig, obwohl es sehr düster wirkt. Ich habe den Eindruck, dass die Figuren irgendwas suchen, aber was? Deine Maltechnik ist unglaublich!

reality-must-die In reply to thomasbossert [2010-06-13 10:24:05 +0000 UTC]

hehe, danke dir vielmals! bin aber noch am anfang und noch dabei alle möglichen kniffe der malerei herauszufinden. auf jeden fall hat man viel mehr möglichkeiten als bei der zeichnung...interessant, aber bisweilen auch etwas überfordernd.

thomasbossert In reply to reality-must-die [2010-06-13 14:51:04 +0000 UTC]

Ich bin den umgekehrten Weg gegangen, ich hab früher nur gemalt und zeichne jetzt nur noch, weil ich da irgendwie mehr machen kann! Auf jeden Fall hast du für einen "Anfänger" schon ganz schön was drauf, Kompliment!...Übrigens, wegen unserer Collab-Planung...ich bin ab Mitte August für ca. 4 wochen in einer Reha..du kannst also entweder vorher oder hinterher etwas planen, ich überlasse es dir, wenn du willst....alles gute, thomas

ach und gute besserung schonmal für den reha aufenthalt!
