Finally a productive afternoon

[forgotten_aria]

After way to long of getting nothign done, I was good, got my exercise in early and then painted for the first time in forever. I used a new technique, which means the painting is changing as I type this, but here's what it looked like an hour ago. It's called Broken, and it will look very different once it dries.



Now maybe I'll go practice some instruments.

Ammendum: STUPID SUBCONCIOUS

So I knew what I was painting was vaguely derivitive of firesea's painting found here but I hadn't realized that her painting was also of a fairy, also had the word broken in the title and was in almost the same possition. Fooey!

Well, no big deal as long as I don't sell mine at all. Someone who knows her better than me, ask her what she would like done with my derivitive work. I'm happy to destroy it, if she wishes.

Sometimes I wonder if I ever have an original thought.

Well, it looks fantastic now!

Post it again once it's done developing...

Don't be grumpy. It's a quite good work on its own and while it's similar to the one you link to and I'll trust you when you say it's derived from it, people have painted the same thing as other people since time immemorial. Don't worry about it. Really. It does not make the painting any the less good. Really. *HUG*

whoa, that's cool.

and I wouldn't call it derivative; the wings, hair, coloring, and media are all distinctly different. don't worry about it :)

Thank you, that means a lot to me.

Yours isn't oil on canvas?

Oh! Now that I actually read the medium statement on yours, that's so cool. I didn't realized they were real leaves. That's really neat.
