What up ya'll....I've been painting and drawing for years & I just realized some of my stuff is on Ophelia's website..Figured I'd share some if it w/you guys by posting them in the form of a forum....Wish I could do this for a living!...Alas..Art, at least in it's traditional form, is very hard to turn into a reliable source of income...

very nice richard! :)

ophelia #1.1 opheliaOG 2003

thanks!...haha, remember that picture i drew that your dad got offended by cause there was like semi-nudity in it or something

yodasucka #1.1.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

haha o yea! it was on my wall and he made me take it down :( i sitll have it though... maybe i'll hang it in his room and c what happens

ophelia #1.1.1.1 opheliaOG 2003

the funny thing is, it sux...like, i don't remember liking the picture at all, nowhere near one of the best examples of my stuff....i don't think i was in a artsy mood when i drew it..and it came through...haha, but for him to get offended is so silly...the human body is a form of art - nudity does not always equal porn..we were born naked!

thefunkyfresh #1.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

is that an innuendo?

yodasucka #1.2.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

starshiptrooper #3 starshiptrooperOG 2003

did u major in art in school?

ophelia #3.1 opheliaOG 2003

i never went...my art teacher in highschool wanted me to go, i never really pursued it..haha, art class was awesome in highschool cause i was the only one in my class that took art seriously, everybody else saw the period as like lunch#2...so he let me draw or paint whatever i wanted, and would always give me an A, the curriculum he made like only applied to everybody else

ilikebirds #4 ilikebirdsOG 2002

ophelia #4.1 opheliaOG 2003

you were DEAD wrong....

omegatweeter #4.1.1 omegatweeterOG 2003

close your eyes billy!

forrestina #5 forrestinaOG 2002

my fave has always been the top one.

juicymango #6 juicymangoOG 2003

this stuff's purrrdy cool. Now question - do you feel that you just kinda had this talent to draw or paint, or did you really suck at first and then had to "learn" and develop the talent.

I have this curiosity whether talents are truly inherited or actually learned.

I have no "natural" talent in Art, and I want to so bad, hehe.

juicymango #6.1 juicymangoOG 2003

the last picture of the girl, i like it, but i noticed ONE small thing - the eye, it should be set back a little more, eyes aren't actually ON the nose...... ya know what i mean? other than that, the shadows and stuff in the facial structure is really good!!

just my "constructive" criticism don't be offended yes thank you clams

ophelia #6.1.1 opheliaOG 2003

haha, yeah, my art teacher said the same thing - but fairy faces differ in structer from that of humans...there's a book called "The Book Of Faeries" that illustrates all the differences in anatomy, facial, bodily, etc...i've always tried to make something a bit "off" when drawing them to kinda illustrate that they're not really human

juicymango #6.1.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

o! Well that's cool. Oh Dude I didn't realize those were wings at first... I thought it was like, a shawl or whatnot... um.. i'm stoopit? I thought it was an elf (the ear is elfish i guess) . Yay.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

haha, you aint stupid...the picture's kinda blurry, it makes stuff hard to identify

ilikebirds #6.1.1.2 ilikebirdsOG 2002

kinda looks like pocahontas after john smith beat her and cut her hair.

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

she does look kinda american indian doesn't she...i didn't even realize that until you said it

thatdarngirl #6.1.1.3 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Do you own this book? Can I see it please?

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

I hit submit twice by accident..and..my comment got posted twice..so..i've edited one of them into this, to cut back on reduncancy

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

no, a friend of mine from highschool had it...I went to borders a few times & never could find it

ophelia opheliaOG 2003

hey remember that picture of you I drew?...Like, pixified

ophelia #6.2 opheliaOG 2003

well, inclination towards art is something that does come from like specific spots in the brain - & depending on genes, one person may be more inclined than another...at the same time, a person's determination can make up for their lake of natural inclination, if you draw & paint alllll the time, you WILL become good at it...I've been drawing from a very young age & have always been like the "art teacher's pet"(this wasn't always a good thing), so, i dunno, maybe it was something i was born with...but..either way, anybody can become an artist if they really want to

forrestina #7 forrestinaOG 2002
