Artist's Comments

layout class page 01
I colored on Photoshop to have an idea of the colors I want.
the colo is the reason I put this in digiart but it's TRAD ART!
this is pappercutting!
ALL THE BLACK LINES ARE MADE OF BLACK PAPER!
I had to cut all the areas that have colors on them, this work is just like making a CG in PS, but with paper and scalpel!

it was made after this original illustration

I'd be really glad to know your feeling about the colors!!!

tools: black paper, exacto (many blades!); HOURS
[note: my mother helped me on this one to help me ear precious time!]
size: raisin (50x65cm)

Ça a dû te prendre de la patience pour tout ça... en tout cas je te félicite, on dirait absolument pas que c'est du découpage tellement c'est clair et précis! J'aime aussi la perspective du dessin...

very good colors V, very good intead and with such a tough median.

... often when I write I am trying to make words do the work of line and colour. I have the painter’s sensitivity to light. Much (and perhaps the best) of my writing is verbal painting. ~Elizabeth Bowen~

thanks :) I tried to somewhat reproduce dawn like the dawns I loved in my hometown, fresh air but warm sun rays coloring everything gold

Looks very interesting. I have never seen such things before...
Well...This illustration is very good in my humble opinion. Colors seems to be ideal but sunrise could be a bit brighter.
PS
What are these brown things around? Bags?

Universal reason isn't always fair but it got good sence of humor.

you asked 4 honest critique so here goes...the yellow and the orange seem clashy with the tone of this piece. the browns, grey-blues, blacks and whites give a mellow, slighly gloomy mood and the bright yellow and orange don't fit with the overall mood. if you want brighter colors for that part i think maroon or dark red and daker yellow or olive would look better. if you want to keep the orange and yellow try a brown for the floor instead of the greyish color you have. the shadow of the tail should have the spiky parts instead of just the smooth circular shape and a smoke shadow would be a nice touch. the lighter marks on the floor don't quite make sence as dust or shadows. the bags should have more shadows around the black lines and texture if possible. they are rather non-discrpt as they are now. that may be your intent but it looks a bit odd. the skin color could be a little more peachy, even though its suposed to look pretty white.

Now, even though it might seem like i have a lot of problems with this pice thats not true. you just asked in ur journal for critiques so i wanted to be as honest as possible. i love the mood of this piece. it seems rather peaceful and melancholy at the same time. total kudos for you for the patience it must have taken to cut this all out. i think its very good!

J'aime beaucoup les couleurs, elles vont bien ensemble. L'orange ajoute juste la touche de couleur vive qu'il faut, c'est très bien. Ya juste le jaune qui me plaît pas trop, je le trouve un peu bizarre, mais c'est juste mon avis ^^

j'avoue que moi non plus je n'aime pas ce jaune, pas du tout même pour être honnête... ^^; mais je ne suis pas sûr de quoi mettre d'autre à la place, à la base j'imaginais la roue dorée mais c'est pas facile à rendre...
