Thank you LisaB and MIH! I was really thrilled to find out that we can order prints of the wonderful portraits in this thread. I need to decide which others I'd also like to have.

Those would be the ones I would like to have, with maybe an "Evo Evening" in there. Very nice GeorginaS.

I keep looking at the wall thinking it could easily stand -- and look really spiffy with -- two more. I think so. They're really compelling and keep catching my eye.

The important question is: that door, does lead to the bathroom in which I will be shaving them legs?

Do they come signed? As soon as I have a new car I need to furnish and decorate my place. A genuine Zoob over the.. uh.. tv? might be a good addition.

Thanks for posting the pic, Georgina. Your choice of frames is exactly how I frame those particular pieces: plain black trim. I'm glad you're happy with the prints. I really didn't know what kind of job they do on them.

(My computer is not working so I haven't been posting. Am having to use the pay computers at La Souris Perdue, so I must limit my time online.)

Dave: What makes you think that door leads to a bathroom? Hmmmm? (And I haven't forgotten my search for that experiment reference. It's still bothering me. I'll find it.)

SA: The wonders of modern technology. Now artists can share prints of their work without the huge capital outlay of having to arrange for giant print-runs. So Zoobyshoe has the images uploaded to a site that does the printing in the quantities the buyer asks for, including doing just one or two. The prices are extraordinarily reasonable. The print quality is excellent on thick Kodak paper with a nice finish. They do a really good job. However, the prints go directly from the printer to the customer, so Zoobyshoe couldn't sign it personally unless it shipped to him first and then to you. The original work is signed but not the subsequent print.

And so, yes, Zoobyshoe, your choice of site is excellent. They do everything right. I'm assuming that people can message you if they'd like more details?

Happy Birthday, Zoobie! Hope it's a good one. You have to share it with MIH and my crazy Aunt.

It isn't often i'll go through every single page of a 22 page thread (especially when i have exams coming up that i should be studying for haha)...but it was totally worth it! Thanks very much for sharing your work, looking forward to seeing more in the future :smile:

Happy Birthday, Zoob! :smile: You're an important ingredient in this community. I wish you a year of fulfillment and exceeded expectations.

Maybe I've got my scope at the wrong angle. I'll try another rooftop.

Yes indeed!

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! I celebrated by having another tooth extracted, so now I'm a bit fuzzy on vicoden. Hope to have my computer fixed soon.

Are these related? If so, you're doing something wrong.

Ba. Zinga.

Zoobyshoe, is it possible to order prints of your artwork?

Edit: Just found the answer.

Yes, but I am not sure if putting the link right here would violate any PF anti-spam regulations or not.

Thanks!

It's ominous, colourfully beautiful, and, in some spots, even human looking. Really interesting piece, Zooby.

nice---its like a cross section of a Munch and a geode/agate at the same time

Thanks, you two! I had pretty bad artist's block since I finished "Smoke and Mirrors" and this was the first thing I was able to produce since then. I opened my colored pencil box last week and this is what gushed out in uncontained chaos.

why not ?
gushing is a natural process...


how about a portrait in color?

Indeed. It happens.

It could happen.

Zoobyshoe creation, that is.

Oh wow, very nice, Georgina!
 
  • #359
Mr. Zooby's work is wonderful! The one in the middle is a brand-new piece.

first i want to say that this is amazing and looks almost like a black and white photo and that i wish i could even come close to drawing something like that.
now i have to offer one piece of criticism. You did the face so well and with so much detail that hair looks like it was an after thought. From that originaly photo maybe there really isn't anything to be done about that, but maybe if added in some structure to the hair it would pop out more ...
i don't know its a minor thing, and its honestly the only thing that i think you haven't done absolutely perfect.

-for the original photo in this thread
