For concept sketches, these are fascinating. Your method of emphasizing detail enchants me, as it displays the depth of detail a suit ...


Overall this is a beautiful shot. The faded red paint provides an excellent launching ground for the curious blue lines and orange oxi...

How unexpected! Black light is a very unusual choice in medium (or perhaps it's more of an environment choice...?), but either way...

Gorgeous play with color. The vibrant dissonance of the pink and green really made this piece step forward; eye-catching and alluring....

Don't Bother Me I'm Reading

Layers of carved, printed paper to simulate tones.

Should I make the CandleLight CSS publically available?

Okay! So I have been teaching myself CSS, in an attempt to make journal layouts that are easier to use as per a lovely, thoughtful critique I received on my Half-Life Two thingabober.
I learned a lot.
I learned a lot of nice shorthand that would clean up the CSS and reduce line numbers in each rule, and contextual markers to get rid of the spastic amount of div layers I was using.

I built it, and it was beautiful.
And then I realized that Deviantart Journals don't allow normal, XHTML markup formatting tags. Things like < p > and <h1> and <h2> go completely unnoticed! D:
Which essentially removed the functionality of my new CSS.
You see, rather than assigning everything and it's brother a div layer, I bundled it all in to something simple, like this:
.journaltext .scrollbox p{
color: rgb(255,255,255);
font-family: arial, tahoma, verdana,helvetica;
font-size: 12pt;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: justify;
line-height: 2.0em;
}

Essentially, this meant that in the .journaltext (the journal), withint a .scrollbox identified div layer, everything contained within the < p > tag would have the listed properties.

So instead of < div id="scrollbox" > < div id ="header" > Business < /div > < div id="scrolltext" > content, shmontent, < /div > < /div >, one could write < div id="scrollbox" > <h1>Business</h1>

Content, shmontent.



It's much simpler! And less crazy!

But...I can't. These rules are ignored on DeviantArt Journals. :/
Lamesauce.
And I don't feel like rewriting it. So. Not another until I have the patience again!

In the meantime!
I've been working very hard on an ink project that has lots of teeny, tiny details. :>
She'll be done soon, and then I can share! :D

Of course you are most welcome. It's rare to spot a gallery with such a diverse selection of medium and styles...I look forward to perusing it more carefully when I have another modicum of free time!
