@demotlj I never pursued an instrument with any actual discipline, I always commend those that have.
AUGUST COMPETION TOPIC: MUSIC

@naters-calderone Wow, so well done!
-
@naters-calderone hahaha. I had a chance to really read this. Best idea ever.
-
Wasn't planning on entering this month as I was traveling recently and had a few commissions to finish. Fortunately one of the subjects was a trumpet player so I decided to do something fun

@naters-calderone Substitute a mandolin for a violin and I've been that kid a thousand times over!

@gary-wilkinson Love it! The three colors make me think this guy can play chords on a horn.

She who always has a song in her heart will always dance.
Music inspires my little one and she inspires me. If there is a melody anywhere around her little body is moving. I had a neat experience as I painted this one. I decided I would listen to her music as I painted. When one particular song came on, "A Million Dreams", and I stopped painting Avery, I started to make her dance. I've painted her, now how do I make her dance?

@chrisaakins Thanks! yeah the story is the strength of this piece. Did you notice how the instructor resembles a violin? (I hope it's obvious enough)

@naters-calderone For someone who hasn't "pursued an instrument with any actual discipline", you did an amazing job of nailing the feeling. There are a lot of things people post on the forum that I love artistically but this is one of the first times that I've responded so viscerally (in a positive way) to a piece. Wonderful work!

@naters-calderone I totally got that. I thought it was a lady violin at first because of the scroll/bun. (Which for some reason made it all the more awesome that she was kicking his tail.) I love how he finger flicked him to oblivion.

@eunji-jung so lovely!
-
@naters-calderone brilliant! and as a former violin student I can really feel it
-
@naters-calderone This is brilliant!!

@lee-white Hey, Lee (and everybody)! I'm a newbie to the SVS forum and thought I'd jump right into the deep end and participate in the "MUSIC" competition. I call this one "The Pianist". Hope you guys dig it!
(edit) I forgot to mention I used a Kuretake brush pen and Deleter screen tone on linen finish Strathmore.

@lollyw
I like the movement in the curves of the cord, and your background and shimmery effect of the circles. -
@seanbiance
Great shapes and gestures. You've given this piece a fun, very animated feel! -
@Miriam Thanks a lot!
-
@eunji-jung Lovely work! I love the idea that the fairies are playing along.

Here's mine. I had the Cantina band song in my head when I started it.
