The Queen of Technical Nonsense
I drew her eyes 3 years ago and swirled around them in a abstract fever whose meaning I never really understood. Each time I entered my parent's home I was captivated by her look from the other side of the corridor. I always wondered what unspoken thought could hide behind her pale forehead, what mysterious secret could drive me hypnotized to the depths of her pupils. One day at in a sudden impulse I grabbed a random blank canvas and started to sketch my Queen again. I painted during one month. Feverishly. I struggled with the hues to keep her face cold but still feel the life breathing underneath. I blew wind in her hair and colored her lips with purple. I spent tenth of hours with tiny brushes to carve the surface of her mechaorganic coat. I reworked her eyes several times until I felt trapped in her look again. But I still wonder so many things about her.   Close-ups here Reference drawing here Related scrap here*edit* I was much pleasantly surprised this morning to find out my Queen had been featured as a daily deviation. She told me that she felt really honored by such a great distinction. Allow me to transmit her words of thankfulness to all of you. Daily DeviationGiven 2008-06-12my Nonsense Queen - colored is a truly impressive oil painting that seems to glow with a peaceful, fantastic aura.

-- kohitsuji_brn   holy God in heaven. the detail you worked into this is spectacular... really its just fantastic. i think the weakest part of the composition is the glass orb, but as an abstract piece i really have no grounds to say this. it just doesn't feel like it fits to me, but really... i have no qualms with masterpieces.
