Here is where you should post sigils, paintings, interesting pictures and maybe even a comic, and then hear what people think of them.

Again, if you make an on-going comic or series of paintings, or simply want a gallery dedicated to your own work, make one and people should comment on it here.

To kick us off, I thought I would share a piece or two of my own.

Those are lovely Sovi. I especially like the last one. The use of subtle earthy colors really create a contrast between the earth and the sky.


Here is one of mine called "Emereality" it is a surreal fantasy sort of piece that I created by accident actually. And it was created using a digital medium.

No nude self portaits? rats, that's like half of my artwork...It's not my fault I have such a hot body...


(I'll edit this post in a bit to include some art, I'm almost done.)

Thank you, Crow.

Your piece is nice. Very tranquil and mildly mysterious. I am surprised you have not made a caption and set it as a guild sigil or the like. The design reminds me a bit of Escher

((another painting to be edited in later.))

Thank you Sovi, but I prefer to exhibit the artwork of others instead of my own to front the guild. I see it is perhaps a tad on the arrogant side so I refrain from doing so. This of course excludes the Reflection Sigil series I have in the Advertise us thread. But that design was made exclusively for this guild, unlike my other works.

Here is a sketch of mine that depicts a young Issildia Nevar. Anyway here is a before and after duo. The top image is the pic before I finished editing it to the grey scale and the bottom image is the product of the editing. Nothing special but it kept me from boredom for the twenty minutes or so that it took to complete.

Cool thumbs, Kage. The Venom in particular is rather interesting. I have always liked that mildly sketchy quality of drawings.
Oh, and Crow. You are aware that you mentioned how you find it arrogant to post your own work, then posted your own work?
That was priceless!
Interesting shading effect, by the way.

You know what I meant Sovi. stare I don't use my work as fore-runner pieces for this guild. Unless I happen to use it in one of my own personal siggys like I happen to be doing now.

I feel kind bad about posting only in the OoE's art Forum.. so I decided to post a couple of my photos in here.. *poofs to get them*..*rumage rumage*.. ah ha.. here we go. ^_^

That one ^ was one of my first photomanipulations. I spent around six hours on it all together and am really happy with it.. I, unlike Crow, have used my own work in Guild Sigs. I would rather use something of my own creation than rather have an angry person complaining that I used it for something that they didn't like.. even after I asked them if I could use it.

User Image

That one ^ was just a regular photo, taken while I was flat on my back whilst being attacked by my huge german shephard.. he sat on me...*can still feel the bruise*

User Image

This one just.. well.. it is.. Nothing really to explain.. used a candle.. and shiny fabric.. and poof.. there it was.. well tell me what you think. ^^

Wow, nice job everybody!
What did you use in your paintings, Soviet? I was thinking pastels....but I wasn't sure.
Oh yeah...here's two of mine...I'm jealous of drawing abilities.....mine seem best when I paint rather than draw.

Pastel

Watercolor

Wow lovely job Bristi, I especially like your sunflower piece. A subtle use of warm and cool colors to create definitive contrast.

Agreed, though personally, I like the watercolor one better. It is increddibly fruity and what not, but I like the effect.
Oh, I did not use pastels for those two. Those were oil on canvas.
