Here's a quickie...I have the worst flu right now, so I'm not in the mood for drawing nice & pretty.... I was going to put some rats in this image, but they just didn't fit.

Anyway, this is what happens if you use heroin:

Hey, I made up a joke:

A: They might get a HAPPY MEAL!

Heh, heh, heh.

death becomes you. I swear, that has so many meanins, and thats what i love about art. Is the meanings in it. You've always ruled the meanings.

Hey Socar,

It's amazing how you captured what happens in the downtown eastside so often. Your work belongs in a mural somewhere down on Hastings street.

Far too often where I work, I have seen your image played out in real life. It is truely sad.

Radiater.

Looks good..

think it would be cool to have the shadow as she was when she was young and beutifull...

hope u understand what i mean....

WOW, that looks so mad.

Mmmm, spinal column. Ribs, shoulder blades, hips. Tatty arm. Yum.

I love this. But you already knew that. No crits, except to say that I'd like to see a bigger version.

ewww...she's all...boney.

btw:excellent job, it's a very powerful image.

Oooh, beautiful and dark, Socar (as most of your art is - positively haunting!)

I'm looking for something to crit, but I can't really find it. I do /not/ think the shadow would look better as a more beautiful and perfect version of her, since it shows a lot of details that are hard to catch when looking at /her/. Only thing I find a little difficult with the picture is that her skin colour is so very close to the background, that her features are difficult to see... Her nose looks a lot more "rounded" on her than it does on the shadow... but that might just be me being confused. A small gripe, but I know you're looking for useful crits.

Ah, not that what I said was useful... anyway... /marvellous/ picture!

Socar MYLES · Posted: Wed Apr 04, 2001 12:29 pm

As requested...A larger version, and a detail:

Radiater--Yes...I live downtown, myself, actually just one street up from East Hastings, so I see this all the time. It IS sad...and it seems to be getting worse, not better.

Enayla--I think you're right about the nose...I might have gone a little overboard on the highlights. (But I'm too lazy to change it, now. Bad me.)

Anyway...larger image...yeah....

Very nice, but very sick. =)

The hair and the shadow are sweet. She could have been pretty hot i guess.. before she died.

*Shudders* Great job, Socar. Reminds me of a piece by Ursula Vernon over at Elfwood in both subject matter and nouveau-ish style.
