Wholock: Stranger Than Fiction 1"Doctor, I think something went horribly wrong this time!" Rory yelled across the open space of the Tardis. The doctor was only visible from the waist down; the rest of him was sticking out of the Tardis door, trying to gage where they were now. "I'm inclined to agree with you," the Doctor yelled back.
Despite the Doctor's voice being calm and controlled, this statement did very little to reassure Rory. It might actually have made things a little bit worse. After all the Doctor was a man who, when confronted with life threatening situations, seemed to only be exited by the unknown and dangerous. So, if that man was agreeing with Rory that so

The Royal Sheetby *Nero749

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / People / Portraits

So you can blame

for this (and every single other Sherlock+Art Nouveau piece I've done, come to think of it

). She mentioned how the sheet would be perfect for art nouveau and I immediately jumped on the idea.

This is quite different from my other art nouveau stuff and maybe I should just call this 'art nouveau inspired.'
It happened because I painted Sherlock first and then created the background. But I realised that if I wanted to fit the two together I'd have to add a bit of a 'drawn-element' to Sherlock. But I didn't want to! Because I liked the way he'd come out... And leaving it all painty, in combination with the background the way it was look too much like a collage... which didn't fit what I wanted.

So I tinkered around with the background (that looked like they normally do in these pieces of mine) and finally decided that adding some texture made it look better but still not 'great.'
Then I had this idea... Some new lighting effects later and the end-result is before you!

I actually really like this style. It's almost the 'realistic' version of my previous art nouveau stuff. Almost like I got Sherlock in the studio to pose for me in a sheet (now there's an idea

) while I got the perfect shot to use as a reference for one of my art nouveau pieces.

In fact, I liked this new style of mine so much I stayed up all the night to create another piece! But that one will have to wait

BTW, I am running out of titles...

This is absolutely gorgeous! I like this new style of yours very much. The light is incredible.

That's good news because I doubt I'll be going back on it

HOW DO YOU DRAW MATERIAL SO WELL?! And faces, but still. To me he looks like he's just sneezed/just about to

~mortmere Feb 3, 2012

My oh my, you’re quick! It took me far longer to get back to dA than it took of you to create two new fabulous pieces of art! I really envy the effortlessness with which you paint (meanwhile, I’ve barely gotten around to sketching something little sheet-related and deleting it, infuriated with the lack of time and proper ideas. Painter’s block or something?).

Again, I see some Japonisme here (or maybe it’s just that butterfly pattern?) and I like the 3D effect the lighting and Sherlock’s unexpected pose add to the usually very 2D art nouveau style. It looks almost like Sherlock and his sheet have been surprised by paparazzis while he was posing for a more traditional art nouveau piece…?

(And don’t I just love to be blamed for something gorgeous like this!)

Hehe, I did warn you I was going to drop everything an start working on it right away, didn't I?

I know what you mean! So many times I've felt like drawing something, painting something just creating something and you sketch, you work and really try and it just doesn't work and you're left feeling frustrated and often I start to wonder if I'm talented at all or if everything I've ever done that was good was just some kind of fluke LOL Maybe that's painter's paranoia LOL

But when I'm inspired I can just paint and paint... that's ideally what every artists wants I'm guessing

And I'm sure once you find what you want to do with tis idea it'll be effortless for you as well!

Hehe, that could be... If so it wasn't on purpose - again. I like the weird feeling of Sherlock posing for an artist and than being photographed as well

I keep laughing at you icon. It's hilarious
