Awesome!

u/Specialist_Piano7543 93 / 93 7d ago

This is so awesome. Great use of imagination

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

Haha I love it! Like what kids (or anyone, really) are imagining when playing with spinners.

u/cyndeelouwho 82 / 111 7d ago

I live on an orchard! Here's a view from my house.

u/Faexinna 1 / 86 8d ago

We had an orchard near our house where I grew up, in a tiny village. This little painting reminds me of it so much! Stunning art!

Thank you!

I was gonna put more trees in there for a full orchard, but I kinda like how it looks.

Looking good already!

Thanks, professor!

So nice!

u/chaths 71 / 73 8d ago

I didn't want to paint vegetation, so "Orchard adjacent", I guess.

u/RealEnergy1889 0 / 9 7d ago

Looooove your art style!!

2

u/chaths 71 / 73 7d ago

Thanks. i wouldn't call it an "art style", because it vary from one work to another.

I'm working on finding a consistent one.

2

u/only_one_i_know 0 / 621 6d ago

The struggle is real. I've been trying to find my "style" since 2018. I'm starting to think it's a mythical creature. Like a unicorn.

2

u/chaths 71 / 73 6d ago

I have been going for any semblance of consistency, especially when switching between digital and traditional medias I use.

If and when I achieve some of that, I hope I'll find my own art style along the way.

1

u/only_one_i_know 0 / 621 6d ago

Yes, switching media is one of my issues. My digital is completely different than my pencil and ink drawings, and then my watercoloring is totally different too. I think my real problem is I like too many different styles to settle on one. Maybe our styles are "eclectic". 😆

2

u/chaths 71 / 73 6d ago

We can only hope that somewhere along the way we can put together, like Frankenstein's monster, our own unique style.

These wierd looking bushes grow perfect polished pinkish crystals

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

Love the contrasting colours. I imagine those pinkish crystals are very valuable.

2

u/[deleted] 7d ago

Sure they are, coming from trees...!

u/Faexinna 1 / 86 8d ago

I love the lighting in this 🤩

u/Faexinna 1 / 86 8d ago

I call this one "Orchard in the rain". Sorry that it's just one apple rather than a bunch of trees but after yesterday I didn't feel like doing another landscape, especially after I've still not found a better way to do them.

3

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

That apple is gorgeous. The subtle colour variations are so realistic.

2

u/Faexinna 1 / 86 7d ago

Thank you so much Ali 🥺 I was following a tip from a friend for that!

Sketch of an orchard:

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

Great perspective and I love the differing textures in the leaves and trunk.

u/AughtNaughtCreator 605 / 605 7d ago

Thanks :)

u/anislandinmyheart 0 / 477 5d ago

This looks so cosy. I do love orchards

u/AughtNaughtCreator 605 / 605 5d ago

They're so peaceful to me :)

Never take for granted those who bring food for you to put on your table.

Day three of this picture. Almost done. Ummmm...the orchard is in the distance there.

Spinner on a pinball machine. The ball rolls under it, setting it spinning on the horizontal axis, and then points are awarded or a task is marked complete or whatever the game says should happen after hitting the spinner, happens.

2

u/AughtNaughtCreator 605 / 605 7d ago

Love your take on spinner :) I remember aiming for those when I'd play pinball (so, so, so long ago, lol)

1

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

Thanks! They're fun to aim the ball at but of course I'm quite bad at pinball and rarely hit what I'm aiming at.

2

u/anislandinmyheart 0 / 477 5d ago

Soooo satisfying! And creatively made

1

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 5d ago

Thank you! My partner brought up a P3 upper playfield module so that I could sketch it from life in decent light.

Fun fact about me: I live in the Apple capitol of my province. I like to think the apples in this orchard are honey crisp.

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 606 / 606 7d ago

That's so cool that you're in the apple capital of your province! Honeycrisp apples are tasty.

I'm back! I'm back! I don't know how to reestablish my art streak, I'll start submitting where I left off, hope it eventually resets itself...?

This is not technically an orchard but it is trees--I tried (futilely) to capture what they looked like after the big ice storm ended. Failed miserably! But there was an attempt.

For comparison.

Now prepare for a barrage of low-quality art as I had no access to the themes until now.
