burning is an easy word to illustrate for me for sure so this week's illustration friday looks like no big deal apart from the fact that i lost my drawing of the mustashed evil with wagging tail and the paper was all in flames and the evil itself in the middle and all was done in smokey red and lighter around the evil who was red too but that red was more evilish and his mustache was thick black and his short cut hair and the end of the tail and maybe the eyes but not so sure about that. anyway as you see if burning is said my answer is hell or evil more or less 8 times out of ten. Since the original piece couldn't be found so far and redrawing it seems impossible and the week is getting shorter and shorter we looked for an old one and i tell you i got a lot. to be honest this is dad's pick cos i was too miserable to cope with it and i find this one too childish for me now i mean i drew it at the age of 5 or something and it's me and my little devil who in this picture is not hiding inside me and you know we used to do lots of no good things for sure but now i'm in the 3rd grade so i can say no to him. so it's not that evil really but red is the color and that color is there in the evil and there in the burning so it's like a little snippet of burning is captured in that by that. i don't know. but you see those grooves? that's cos out of this drawing i made a paper plane. and even with that this is just too happy for burning. oh i don't know.
this is my dad's other choice for burning cos for him love can be burning too and he thinks it can be seen this way. well i'm not sure. i mean without the red there's no burning i guess or maybe when red burns out there is black like ash and heart shaped out of smoke and a hellboy and a hellgirl in love. i don't know it's a bit still confusing for me. i don't even think it's a good enough drawing i didn't even finish it but as dad said hell knows let's put it on! oh yeah and those words about my contest. well my blog history is 1 year old i mean the birthsdayparty is held at 16th this month and i'm leaning toward to pick one of you to make you happy with a little gift from me and all of you can participate enter the contest the only thing to do is leaving a comment here or there in my blog. by the way all of the older comments play too. more to come soon. bye now
Good way to handle losing your drawing. Glad you kept the old ones to go through. I think I will go now and make a paper airplane out of this week's Illustration Friday drawing and send it flying out the window... I like your words. A
VálaszTörlésHey Lili! I love both of your dad's choices for burning :o) Sorry to hear that you lost the evil one. It souned amazing! I bet you were "burning" mad. Great story and terrific post Lili!
VálaszTörlésHello Lili, nice work!
VálaszTörlésLove your drawings, and thanks for the comments about my burning chair! :-)
VálaszTörlésI really like your drawings too. My son just turned 5 and he is starting to draw cool pictures. Your description of the art is great too. Keep up the exceptional work.
VálaszTörléshaha thank you to call me "Silly" ..of course it is impossible that everybody likes my work :D
VálaszTörlésBeautiful (and funny) drawings. You are a fantastic artist.
VálaszTörlésBy the way, My wife and I were in your lovely town four years ago.
Hello, Lili! I'm always glad to see you're back! Don't suffer about your lost drawing - just imagine how many "sisters" and "brothers" of it have been born in our imaginations, while reading your words. And in all of them there're evils with moustaches, flames and red, red, red... I was a little bit surprised to find out that the "evil" theme could be interesting for a 5-years old girl! But I know you are not kidding, for I can see your little devil, who looks quite amiable!! I hope he's still not a great villain!:-) By the way, the first Bulgarian fantasy novels, written in the beginning of 20th century, are about a boy, named Yan Bibiyan and his devil Fyut. You can check them out in the library - I hope they are translated in Hungarian or in English! The author is Elin Pelin and the titles are:"Yan Bibiyan" and "Yan Bibiyan on the Moon".
VálaszTörlésI like your Dad's choice. Especially for the second drawing. I'm very much impressed. The black colour may have another explanation - that their love is still not that strong to burn...
Happy first Blogaversary, Lili! Keep the way you draw and feel the world! I wish you to find a lot of new friends here!xx
