Like the illustration, but with the angle it does not exactly look like she is reading.
|
 |
The arm in front is way out of proportion when looking at the arm behind...
I love the idea, just needs some tweaking. |
 |
like the pen/ink style
|
 |
The idea is good, but the arms are very awkward, they seem way too long for her body
|
 |
Fantastic
|
 |
this is not very well drawn...
|
 |
Thanks for all your comments! So interesting.
I'm happy to be sharing this with you. If you're curious, I will note that the elongation of form was intentional (arms, hair, perspective) - and was meant to set a bleaker, slightly awkward tone. It's not so much a literal drawing, as it is an emotional one. |
 |
Love it, love it! The style is beautiful, and the more abstract elements feel evocative-- of course it's a little skewed! She's deeply ensconced in a different reality!
|
|
I understand that you intended to elongate her form, but that doesn't mean it looks good, sorry. :( The arms are just too long for the rest of the picture.
|
 |
it's cool but it looks like she's bored with the book, not reading it
|
 |
i like it, and i can tell shes reading the book, though i feel like if you sized down the desgin a little it might work better, still -- 4$, though if you re-sub it a little bit smaller so its not so overwhelming. I don't know, I'd have to see it. I'm not sure, theres just something about the size of it that throws me a little.
|
|
Funny, I never thought she was reading the book literally, but rather thinking about what she just read. I like the longer arms and hair but that's just me. Yes it's awkward, but so is the girl in the drawing, and I think it adds to it.
|
|
does anyone know how i can post an example of this in smaller format? I think "amandaking" had a point about it being smaller on the tshirt, not as overwhelming. That might help.
How can I do that? |
 |
Instant 5$!!!!! I don't care if it's a little skewed; actually, that earns you extra points in this case, as far as I'm concerned! Beatiful...love the colors...I want this!! Hope it gets printed :) ....

i like how she is long and gangly
|
|
I don't think this would work well on a t-shirt. I appreciate the style of the drawing, this kind of thing looks beautiful in traditional art, and it's really very nice, but on a shirt I think it would look more awkward than anything.
|
|
I'm sorry, but I can't see anything in this either artisically or in any way memorable!
