This will make a cool CD cover.
Maybe you should try and get hold of the guys. You may end up making a couple of bucks.

hey this is an odd request and i dont expect you to actualy do this but it would be sweet.
could you make me a desctop of this picture.
i cant realy draw anymore and when i did i couldent vary well anyways. but its like a picture i had in my head a few months ago. and i could never get on paper right and this is exactly the feeling i was shooting for.
so yea think about it lol

a desktop, you say....it'd be fun to try, so I'll say "Yes" on the condition that I remember lol...i'm forgetful sometimes.
As for not bein able to draw, I go through droughts for days, sometimes weeks on end where it's like my hand disconnects from my brain entirely, and my inspiration dries up and dies and nothing moves me. Drawing is like a drug, and when the high goes away and everything loses its luster it's easy to go into withdrawal that's the color of despair. Making matters worse is the fact that even the best artists can never quite seem to encompass the visions in their head. What you create is never good enough and what you want to create is always dancing a few feet (or miles) in front of you....
so havin said that there's not much I can say that would magically restore your will or desire to draw....other than survive and look for your inspiration. Listen to your favorite music and find more. Scribble aimlessly, grind through anatomical study, force yourself sometimes and let it come at its own pace other times. If you could draw once, even if you think badly, you can draw again. To get worse at it requires deliberate effort, to get better requires much less work if you enjoy it.
So...yeah! I'll try to remember and make a desktop sorry for the long reply. You can ignore my rants if you like, I just get all "guest speaker at the high school gym"" sometimes....

Wow--I am just amazed by this drawing. It is a bit tortured to be sure--but also sheer genius. Good job, my talented friend!

thanks, i always appreciate your comments even if it turns out to be torture, music is the kickin'est muse, like a mantra for the conception of every piece (well, usually....sometimes i just make stuff up
)
peace!

You are welcome!!! Hmmm, my comments are like torture? I hope that is a good thing, my talented friend!
Music is always inspiring to me--it's like music opens up an unknown part of one's self--and the drawings draw themselves.
I like your new avatar, by the way! (grin)
