| 2 May 2002 |  Eric J. Gutierrez AKA Numakie | Oh wow. i kinda like the picture. i could actually mistake it for a painting. i can just see some rain tapping down on the leaves too. keep up the good work | |
| 5 May 2002 |  Cally G. Steussy | Hmmm... you have Earth and Fire, where are the others? I like this picture; it does have an aura of being 'cute' while not being blatant about it. I do agree that if the leaf above the personage were to just slightly overlap his hair, it would look more three-dimensional, but really it's fine as-is. The lady-bug looks really flat for some reason, though...   Roxanne Hancock replies: ""Water" really wouldn't fit in here. It's not technically fantasy. I have to copy "Wind" from my website; I think I lost the original Photoshop document for that......but "Wind" can be accepted here, so I'll include that in my next update. But all four "Elements" pics are in the archive section of my website.  " | |
| 22 May 2002 |  Ryan Bourret | Very good. It looks more like a dry brush painting then a digital peice | |
| 23 May 2002 |  Shannon C. Voelker | I agree with the above comment that said it looks more like a brush painting. ^-^; Your completely psped pieces remind me of murals, like they're bits of a very long and intricate mural somewhere. No idea why.
I love the way he's just looking at the ladybug. He looks relaxed and happy. Yay! | |
| 4 Jun 2002 |  Myra Sloan | Love the narrative and the use of negative space. He looks small but wise. | |
| 18 Jul 2002 | Erin Dooley | Oh man, you're brave enough to show a mouse-drawn picture. And it's actually good! (Mine have all been destroyed, hah). I really, really like the leaves, they look sort of abstract and could almost stand on their own. | |
| 1 Aug 2002 |  Norma Peters | He's adorable. I love the colors you've used, with the stark, dramatic shading around the leaves...it provides a good focus for the little guy. That lady bug is a wonderful addition.  Roxanne Hancock replies: "Thanks Norma!! The ladybug was the most favored part of the picture back at college " | |
| 27 Aug 2002 |  Rochelle Green | I like the ladybug too, he's yum! The colours in this are gorgeous  I personally think that a few dewdrops of whitish bits of light on the leaves would look great! | |
| 14 Jun 2005 | Meghann Earl | You are a much braver soul than I, to do a piece entirely in Photoshop! I think I lack the patience to do it, especially since I lack a tablet. 0_o'' As for the picture itself: that is one curious looking little dude there! His observation of the ladybug reminds me of a couple of little kids I know. He seems quite interested in it, for sure! And I love how the image comes out of the blackness- I've always loved the contrast of color against black. Wonderful image! | |
