The ballet slippers are just awesome. I can tell you spent a lot of time on those. biggrin
The hands under the water is my second fave. My only thing with drawing water is that it usually comes out looking like ice... I've yet to figure out how to remedy that without animation invovled...

Thanks, actually it took less time than you'd imagine. About 4 hours, one weekend when I was sick in my dorm and couldn't make the drive home. It's the latest thing I've drawn and was a christmas present for my ballet instructor. Water was the hardest thing about that picture. I thought hands were hard, but I took so many reference pictures of water running over my hands...cold...cold water...

seriously, those hands are really cool. i especially like the water that is coming down on the hands, not the stuff that's on it, necessarily. the little spiral-sort of effect is really nice. I've never seriously tried to draw water (because i'm terrified of it, mostly), but i think if it was more transparent it would look less icy. however, i have no idea how you could do that since water bends light all over the place....
@eucilids: SHE gives her people a whole brain, a whole forehead. we must take note of this figure out how she manages to make all that space look interesting=P

It was a poster for a play I was doing, THE MIRACLE WORKER. I have no intention to draw hands or water this intently ever again.

@Christa:
I can understand that! xd Good golly, there's a point in there when you've just had enough of working on a picture and don't ever want to touch it again for fear of messing it up. xd
@in the flicker:
Meh, I like my small foreheads and half-brains. xd

@christa: i totally understand not going back and fixing it (i almost never go back and fix things; i just try to keep my past errors in mind), and if you have no plans of drawing water/hands like this again, i can appreciate that (once would be plenty, i'd imagine).
curious: was the play good/what was it about?

Miracle Worker is the play about Helen Keller (deaf, dumb, and blind) learning how to communicate through sign language. The first word she understands is 'water'

I really like the hands. The portraiture seems a bit lacking in comparison... they're dryer, somehow. There's less to them and they're less engaging.
