I posted this in randomness but it really belongs here. I'm so proud of this and it's not even my work, hehehe.

This is the tattoo my boyfriend got of Salvador Dali's elephant that I was telling you guys about recently:

Now all you have to do is get him to work out so much that he can get that brute to walk by merely flexing his deltoid.

I like it, I’d say you should expand on it. Make a bad-ass painting.

Wow! That's really awesome...makes me want to get a starving elephant tattooed on me. Did he have someone draw that for him?

JuliaGaltic · 03-03-2006, 12:11 PM

We gave his tattoo artist a blurry picture off of the internet and he managed to put all the detail back into it. He did it all freehand too! He's amazing!

Metatron · 03-03-2006, 12:19 PM

Tattoo artists are some pretty damn talented people. Everything I do is quick. I can't draw slowly, and I usually can't draw a subject while looking at my paper either. Somehow I just look at something and just draw it. Did I mention it's a sweet tattoo?

These are some of my favorites with his Surreal and Beautiful Elephants..

And you can order pretty much all of his Prints from HERE..

And if they don't have it, they will actually make an effort to find it for you.

JuliaGaltic · 03-03-2006, 01:40 PM

Those are beautiful!

This is the piece on which Vince's elephant was based. The elephant on the right is the one tattoed on his arm.

He is going to get the one on the left tattoed on his other arm next.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-03-2006, 03:22 PM

Those elephants are amazing. Very beautiful indeed. Especially the tattoo. I was thinking of getting something from William Blake's art done on me when I'm older, maybe something from The Marriage Between Heaven & Hell.

Anyways I did a variation of my green angel.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-03-2006, 03:56 PM

Thank you Xnguela.
I've probably posted these before, but I just found them & wanted to put them up properly.

Sorry about the crinkles, I should have flattened them.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-03-2006, 04:11 PM

Yup, my crusty old Windsor & Newton's given to me when I was 9. I find them easier to use than acrylics & they have a nicer effect than pencil. I did a huge version of the blue woman, it's not as good, but I felt it was a good effort.

pitseleh · 03-03-2006, 04:20 PM

Yes, very nice use of colour there, S.I.M.S. And I love the tail-ends of your brush-strokes. Looks ragged in a really natural way.

I'll post some drawings later this weekend probably, since I now have a date with my friend who has a scanner.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-04-2006, 12:38 PM

Yeah sure. I used the resize picture thing when uploading it, but it's about A4 size. I'll have to email it through my school email site, my MSN won't work. Is that alright?

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-04-2006, 12:47 PM

Well how about I upload it & pm it to you full sized & I guess you could take it from that. But I'm not entirely sure that will work.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-04-2006, 01:19 PM

No problem

I'm just glad you like it.

pitseleh · 03-05-2006, 02:01 PM

Ok, so I finally got some of my stuff scanned. Really hope it isn't too large. I run 1280 x 1024 resolution on my monitor, so I'm not sure
how it will look on lower resolutions. Feel free to tell me/edit if it's too space-consuming.

...

pitseleh · 03-05-2006, 02:04 PM

Damn... Doesn't photobucket allow large pics or something? I swear I sized the last one to around 800 in width or something. Both of these
are originally in A4 format, so if anyone would like a larger version e-mailed, just ask.

She_Is_My_Sin · 03-05-2006, 02:04 PM

I particularly liked the ankh one, especially on how much detail you've put in. It's really good.

pitseleh · 03-05-2006, 02:05 PM

I can't scroll horizontally to edit my post on this page, so thank you, Xnguela.

Oh, and I did these with charcoal, by the way.

Shi'ark · 03-05-2006, 02:05 PM

Pretty darn good.

pitseleh · 03-05-2006, 02:08 PM

Yep. Comin' right up!

MrMaelstrom · 03-05-2006, 02:12 PM

Lovely work Pit, especially the Ankh.

MrMaelstrom · 03-05-2006, 02:25 PM

Damn, I've been spotted

So and so, baby, so and so...
Work almost 12 hours a day for 350 bucks a month, but other than some back pain, I've toughened up again, so it's not so bad.
Emotionally, things have been very difficult, but I'm not sexually deprived (just depraved

), so it's not all bad.
...it's just very hard and I hope it passes soon, 'cause I'm not sure for how long I can endure these conditions (on several levels).

How're the trolls these days? Tasty and crispy?

tekajo · 03-05-2006, 02:27 PM

Yes, you have been spotted sir.

The trolls, bleh, they come and go like herpes. What can you do?

Does this mean you're back now Mael?
