A Simple Tryst of Fates (Part 4)

As trios go, this is somewhat of a motley crew, although there is a sense of more intelligence there than the Stooges (Moe's, not Iggy's), and a bit less flippancy than the Marxes. If they sing after a long day's labor, I bet they chant and trill in the same octave range as the Bee Gees; maybe not as high, but I'm sure they do it with less urgency. The Bee Gees were always a bit on the desperate side; ...but I digress. Although I intend to have their faces remain a bit less defined than Mr. Fellow's, I will likely add a a bit more specifics to each.

Here they all are in action. Nona and Morta have been fleshed out... well certainly Nona has been fleshed out. Next step is to finalize their facial features, somewhat. And I'm considering a wardrobe change for Mr. Fellow. Morta's hands were quite fun to draw. They're big. I don't mean to say necessarily that as life goes on your hands get bigger, but the proof seems to be in the pudding here. Certainly MY hands are bigger than when I was a child; I don't know about what my senior hands will look like... I'll keep an eye on them. Evidently clothes become a premium as one ages as well.

  2. Hi Joe, The original fits on an 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper; it's an okay size for me to work on as well as it fits in the tiny scanner I like to use. When I go to final I may go larger. Thanks for the comments. Wacky and crazy it is.

  7. yes i agree whole hardily, I was almost thinking about re-enrolling back to ai for just one or two classes for one quater. The conditions and experiences I felt there I think had a massive influence on my abilities to draw at the skill level I once had.
    I would likely go everyday to ai-oc to put me back in the atmosphere of how I felt among the students there. Overall throughout the time I was attending Ai I generally wasn't treated like a person and it was things like that which shaped myself for drawing. I'm thinking about discussing this with my parents and enroll next year.
