    ... strokes, over-lapped and converted to shapes, and broken apart to get fillable shapes.

    It's fun, easy and quick, but are the fat lines too distracting? (Not considering the subject matter, which could be more interesting.)

    I did pay more attention where the lines ended up with the first one.

    Risto,

    I love the color combinations. Great use of color. HJad to look twice to see the lion in there, but it is definently good. Getting better all the time.

    Hi Risto,

    I think the lines are a little heavy. It's a cross between a Picasso and a childs coloring book.


    I know, I know...It's Picasso's paint by numbers.

    On the last picture.. Poor choice of subject matter for me. It evokes an emotion, so it is a art, but I still do not care for it.

    Now... a frog in a blender... or a bassamatic , that's funny.

    Hi Risto,

    Much better. Much better! The subject is suggestive, without being pornographic. The colors draw the eye naturely.

    I like it.

    Great job Risto!

    It's refreshing to know that we don't all see the world in the same way ... and you obviously see it through stained glass

    I've never been a fan of cubism ... but you are bringing me around. Keep up the good work!

    Thanks for looking guys!

    I played around with it some more tonight, too many lines in this one... But the colours turned out pretty cool.

    Soquili,

    It's good to see you again also!

    I have to work a bit more with this line business... Essentially I'm just trying to find an additional way to draw the simple things that I do.

    Quite a few of the things that I have done previously don't work all that great on a smaller size. Granted, none of the images here would work as a small spot illustration either as all the black lines would make them look like blobs of black. I'm still just experimenting though - it's fun.
