I did this about a month ago. It is done in pastels. And before you ask...I sketched it from a photo on one of those envelopes you get from Kodak with your pictures in it. :D
I had to scan it in sections and append them in psp.

His head looks a little bit lop-sided, but I was looking at 1 of those Kodak things, and thats what it looks like.Quote:

Your an awesome artist man
Not really...I'm not very good at sketching...have to use a grid a lot of times.
You found the photo I used?
yeah we have like a billion picture things, and 1 of them was 2 people and a dog on a dock
Wow..neat. :)
woah... sweeeeeet... I LOVE THE WATER!! (one thing I never was good at without using the ocean ripple filters in photoshop, hehhehe) :D good work!!!
Hey, that's pretty cool clif. Nice one.
I always thought pastels were a pain. If you don't keep 'em under control, they can get unruly and take over your piece, turning it into a muddy mess, but that's some good work.
i agree w/hurricaneone, i've never been able to draw anything cohernt using pastels. it all turns to mush. keep up the good work.
me again - i don't mean to steal the spotlight, but since the ball is already rolling, what do you guys think of this?

it was my art final (though not my fav). we had to find a phone and draw it... hope you like it.
Looks fantastic...the bottom right corner of the phone looks a little out of shpae but everything else is a amazing.
Here's a trick on pastels I learned from my art teacher. There is a point whiile doing pastels that you reach where everything you try to do is going to blend together muddy up. He said you can get a can of that aerosol fixative and spray it on the painting. That will hold it in place while you can go over the top of it finishing up your detail...you can even blend if you want to...the fixative doesn't "fix" it so far as to seal the bottom layer.
When you done give it another light spray to protect it...
Not sure that is the recommended way but it worked great for me.

Yeh I was tought that trick with the hairspray.
Nice pics both of you, clif you dog is a wee bit dogey, changes colour half way through it and looks like a shadow, nice water effect.
Hey, check out my quick pencil sketch I did ages ago:

You are forgiven, now say sorry to Linux, Linus, and Tux.
NEVER!
*hides in Microsoft.com...out of Nerdles reach*
I wouldn't touch microsoft.com with 10 feet of cat5 cable!
That's so sweet of you for drawing a little picture of us, but I'm not sure about the dog... It's still good though, like all I can do with oil pastels is draw fruit :)
