Isn't time flying people.

Well great works last week! A tonne of posts which is great as well!!

Have fun I look forward to seeing what you lot come up for this weeks topic

vermin · 04-25-2005, 06:42 PM

This is a watercolor painting I did about 6 or 7 years ago. For some reason the scanner discolored the legs and feet.

kramus · 04-25-2005, 07:03 PM

That's a cool bird, Vermin. Makes me think of an avant garde professor

This is a mother's day card I did a couple of years ago.

dobster · 04-25-2005, 07:20 PM

Kramus that is so lovely!!

What a cute picture. You've really captured the emotions of those birdies.

kramus · 04-25-2005, 07:36 PM

Thanks dobster

K-Wise · 04-25-2005, 07:44 PM

Oh I love the style in both pics. One thing I gotta love about this forum..so many different styles of artists coming together..in these posts especially. Great stuff guys.

Asta!!

kramus · 04-25-2005, 07:48 PM

I just remembered my owl

GoldenOuroboros · 04-26-2005, 01:09 AM

Wow some great artwork already
Vermin, Love the abstract piece you have there!

Kramus, I can't say that I've seen your style before O_o but it's cool ^_^

Nancy · 04-26-2005, 03:51 AM

Kramus: That first one is adorable

Vermin: Glad to see another one here who's into water colors. Cool looking bird - did you come up with it yourself or is it a real species?

As for the discoloring; my scanner does the same thing sometimes. I'm afraid it's broken

I'll say! Isn't it the first time we've ever had 2 whole pages in a weekly activity??

Giant Hamburger · 04-26-2005, 12:49 PM

next week: eyeballs

K-Wise · 04-26-2005, 02:20 PM

^ Ahaha! I love it!

Asta!!

doodlebird · 04-26-2005, 03:07 PM

holy cow!
a pretty nice start to the week's activity.
kramus, i really like the mother's day card.
the curved line fills/shading are a nice touch.
vermin, thank you for digging up the past.
i've been thinking of geometrically shaped birds
since i recently stumbled on the artwork of tim biskup
http://www.timbiskup.com/artwork/paintings/

y señor hamburguesa,
if it weren't for the necktie,
i'd say that's a striking self portrait.
no?

i'm off to the scanner to scan in this week's colored pencil contributions.

kramus · 04-26-2005, 03:16 PM

Thanks folks - that Mother's Day card was a fun one. Golden - being on the inside I really still am not sure what my style is - but it must exist because you aren't the first person to tell me about it

Giant Hamburger, is there a little pun or something behind the studious and well dressed culture vulture? I bet there is more to his story. Way cool tie.

doodlebird · 04-26-2005, 03:38 PM

and here they are...
(i think birds are slightly evil)

cellophanedeity · 04-26-2005, 07:58 PM

He's a lawyer. I think I am going to add him holding a book.

ms. diety,
yours reminds me of a bird i did a few weeks ago.
i saw a girl with a robin tatooed on her forearm.
i later learned her name was robin,
but she inspired me to draw this quickie...

cellophanedeity · 04-26-2005, 09:44 PM

Kramus, your talent never ceases to amaze me. GiantHamburger, your posts are either hilarious or absolutely terrifying I will dream of evil chickens. You have poisoned my dreams!

Dobster, your shadow bird is lovely, not "poo" as you say. I like shadow birds! And Doodlebird, your drawings are absolutely adorable.

So much talent in this forum!

Edit: I also love the watercolour Vermin! I didn't forget you, I promise!

kramus · 04-27-2005, 01:42 AM

Giant Hamburger you crack me up. And doodle, your stuff is really fun too

. Cello, something exquisite is revealed in your bird - great stuff.

FngKestrel · 04-27-2005, 01:44 AM

I like this topic.

My old avatar is a kestrel's head, naturally.

Somewhere in a sketchbook I have another few bird drawings. I'll see if I can find them.

Next week: Mom

Tophat665 · 04-27-2005, 10:31 AM

OK, I have never much cared for birds, but they do add a certain something to a landscape.
A certain je ne cest qua.
Poultry in motion, if you will.
Even if you won't.

So, therefore, here's "Sunset with Hawks"

Tophat665 · 04-27-2005, 10:40 AM

Next Week:
Artistic puns.

GO, friend, this has been an awesome series of threads. Perhaps at some point you could recap the topics that have been done so far?

doodlebird · 04-27-2005, 05:53 PM

^groans.

i second the "mom" theme for next week.
(may 8 is mother's day in the US - is it elsewhere?)

la petite moi · 04-27-2005, 08:13 PM

Very old drawing I did with my mouse and an oekaki programme, but it's too funny not to post (at least, that's what I think).

Next week: moms (like everyone is saying).

I don't believe that chicken. This is further proof of GH's statement that birds are firmly ensconced in the camp of evil.

Nancy · 04-27-2005, 11:16 PM

Bloody good work everybody!!

Doodlebird: I think I like your birds best. They're so fat and adorable!

Did you resize the birds or is the original drawing that big??

Dizzet · 04-28-2005, 02:01 AM

Well made a littel Godfather Pigeon... Don Pigeon well here it is enjoy...

Next Week: Alien Rodeo

Nancy · 04-28-2005, 02:40 AM

Don't fuck with Don Pigeon people!

Nancy · 04-28-2005, 02:54 AM

Next week: Danes

hu-man · 04-28-2005, 10:26 AM

repost, but it fits the theme.

Nancy · 04-28-2005, 10:42 AM

So cute! You still owe me a t-shirt with the duckie ya know!

Snoogans · 04-28-2005, 12:23 PM

Finally, I am able to participate again

next week: the greatest day on earth

Giant Hamburger · 04-28-2005, 12:53 PM

Snoogs! It's good to see you here again.

Here's a bird image I posted in another thread a while back...

clavus · 04-28-2005, 01:54 PM
