sacred chao?

[Horab Fibslager]

er somewhere soemone said soemthign about a sacred chao after i said i draw better ones or somethin, and i said i'd post one if i found one laying abouty. well i found my book of squiggly lines which is my doodle book from when i was quite mad, and scanned the one that's in tehre. it's a few years old and i draw them much better now, btu they take a good few horu sto draw properly, and i tend to leave them in naughty palces. but in any case, this gives a jist as to what they may look like.

Wow! This is very cool.
I like the squiggly lines and have kind of
been experimenting with them myself lately.

Are you gonna post more? I hope so.

[mobbing]

thats just how all my school papers look like on the edge.
I seldom draw something specific, mostly such squiggly lines and trees

[Horab Fibslager]

i drew these while thinking baotu entorpy or someat, and the firstone is a concptualization of a pocket of entropy- divisionless and uniform, fading into a pocket of negative entorpy, wild and erratic. the 2nd is a conceptof a whole system, tho not in very good detail or anything.

this one here i liek to look at as if it were a 3d drawing or someat.  



those are all teh half decent ones from that book i'm afraid. [/img]

You gave me the idea of using a toothpick to inscribe something on the order of the first picture you posted into the background of the painting I started last night.  That first layer of paint is quite dark, so it's kind of hard to see the lines, but I know they're there - which makes it much more fun.

[Horab Fibslager]

hidden images are always fun. i've had the thought to make pcitures which always had hidden images in them, but i jsut haven't been arsed to do so.

My friend once came up with the idea of attaching masks to everyone in a particular painging......masks that the viewer could remove. She also wanted me to somehow make paintings with multiple layers, like onions - so that people could peel them away one by one until they came to the "true" painting underneath. Can't figure out how in the world to do such a thing, but it's a cool idea.

well i reckoned i woudl use transparncy effects in psp or something. my digital art aint that great, butmy physical art is worse. i plan to combien them into somethign decent.

in any case my art tends to be heavy on concept rather than actual skill. dawign good is hard :/

[Bella]

That's why I paint - it doesn't require great techinical drawing skill.
My old boss was telling me yesterday that she did a self portrait using transparencies. I'd like to see it one of these days.

i useck worse with paint thananythign else. my prefered media is pen overall, because my 7th grade art teacher told me that you couldn;t draw with a pen. funy thing is i can do almost anythign with a pen msot people can do with a pencil, depending on the pen.(including shade)

Your teacher actually said that? What a maroon!
But at least it inspired you.

I usually finish my watercolors off with pen. I like to make squiggly lines for shading - especially on portraits. And sometimes, I sneak in words and symbols among the squiggles. It amuses me to have secret messages that other people probably won't ever know are there.

i like hidden messages.
i hid one in this post.
can you find it?

You guys keep that up and you'll be making art spookier than a collection of Austin Osman Spare paintings.

[Bella]

I like spooky art.
The spookier the better.
