I love the color combination, the movement, the textures, his expression and posture and the subtle sky layers, and the nice details like the clouds and birds. Absolutely wonderful. (and I'm not just saying that!)<br /><br />I definitely can start to not like something that I worked on for a while and was loving for the most part and then having trouble with it and moving past it.Kelly Medinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13874327427279776695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26905664.post-25468570551401667872010-02-20T20:57:51.627-05:002010-02-20T20:57:51.627-05:00Love the illustration and the fact you show your s...Love the illustration and the fact you show your sketched ideas too is great.

Maybe it is just a case of overexposure, I think everyone gets sick of their own work.<br /><br />Tiffany - The whole thing was much more of a pure cobalt blue to start with, but I really associate the ocean with a more greeny-blue so it just looks sort of false to me. In any case, even though I don't love it I'm content to let it rest - not every piece can be your favorite, you know?Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00587003890367897879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26905664.post-72816759438110898172010-02-18T23:19:59.231-05:002010-02-18T23:19:59.231-05:00I often feel that way about my work, more often th...I often feel that way about my work, more often than not actually.

One thing you could try tweaking is the water color...maybe more of a cadet blue to go with the yellow? Maybe not though...Julissa might be right about staring at it too long.<br /><br />♥ TiffanyTiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04606164077412542298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26905664.post-73012658266258645502010-02-18T15:30:12.716-05:002010-02-18T15:30:12.716-05:00Oooo...LOVE how clear the water looks!
