Great colours. Nice clean lines in the silhouette.
The kid looks kinda weird though...kinda lumpy.
Oh well, it's really good.

The real photo of the kid is linked in the comments somewhere, he's got no shirt on, and has a bowl-cut.

hey Great job on the art!!!... i gotta question.. The ferris wheel, is it a 3d model or how did you make it?

It's a vector illustration based off a photograph.

- What I like about this is that it's at an angle and not just the side view (if that makes any sense) beautiful work

Are you going to make a wallpaper of this?

smashmethod In reply to Mad-Duck [2005-06-23 06:32:14 +0000 UTC]

It'd be kind of awkward being more wide than high, but I can if you really want one.

No, if it's too much trouble, then you don't have to.

Hi there!


We have high hopes; we trust them always in our children. And children also have high hopes; they trust them in the grownups, though. And if grownups protect them from violence, or at least try to, kids always want to dare and double dare, to be bold and dream. And it’s their dreams that give us a wake-up call, though we use to shut the alarm off and continue to sleep. That’s sad, because our children have some very beautiful dreams, they truly believe that world peace and harmony can exist. We are sceptics – most of us. But there are some people, like artists, who listen to dreams, and objectify them, into ART. You are one of them. Thank you for being a reliable deposit of our hopes trusts!


Kisses,
EloΓ­sa Valdes
