Artist's Comments

A small 'sidedish' for a critique-session we had at school today. :] It's a self-portrait made onto an old over-exposed photo.
Overall I'm quote happy with the results and the overall idea of these, I had never realized that I could use old photos like this! :D
This one looks quite a lot like me, I think. Much simpler than the first one.

Paint, ink etc on a photograph.

Oh wow, that's so interesting... I was so puzzled as to what you'd done, I thought you'd painted a window! Nice work, so cool ;)
:iconjuuhanna:
Haha, I actually had to explain up to three times to one of my schoolmates that this isn't a print, it's a traditionally done mixed media piece. :lol:

Just like the first one: Wow! @.@

This would be my favorite of the series, though I love the style in them all =)

I probably actually prefer the complexity of the first, but the portrait here is smoother and, well, prettier, and the colours are awesome~

So yeah! Great work, I really hope to see you use this sort of media again :D

I have a pointless signature
:iconjuuhanna:
Aww, prettier you say? :B
And thank you, I was prepared that these would go pretty much unnoticed as people seem to prefer the anime-collabs over my 'weird-stuff'.
So, I'm very happy to recieve friendly comments on these! :heart: I'll try to make more of these, too bad that photos are taken digitally these days and they're not developed if they're over-exposed like these... so it's less material for me to work on! D:
I need to start a collection; 'Donate your old, ruined photos for art'... :plotting:

I think I like this one the best as well. It is very striking in it's simplicity and bold colors. Great use of old photographs. I shall have to try that!

This surrealist effect is soooo cool! I absolutely love this technique you're using.

Thanks! I'm glad it popped to my head, I've got all sorts of plans now concerning this kind of stuff! :excited:
