Butterflies!

Hey everyone,

Recently there has been a new female interest in my life. Her name is Vanessa, and we've been seeing eachother for about a month (a very short time, I know). Well, for christmas I decided to paint her something, but had no idea what. I got the idea of doing a painting because last time I was at her house she stated there was nothing on her walls, and she needed something to put up on them.

So, I did some research. She told me her name meant butterfly, so that instantly sparked ideas in my head. I looked up the exact meaning of her name, as well as various species of butterfly. I soon found there was a species of butterfly named Vanessa, a very beautiful species, so I decided to use that.

So, what does everyone think about it? The idea? The actual work? Anything you would change?

Thanks!

Well, you're a keeper I am 100% positive that she will absolutely adore not only the painting (which is beautiful), but the thought behind it. If she doesn't, run away fast.*kidding* (but seriously, there'd be something wrong with her if she didn't like it)

It's a good idea. As for the actual work, it is a masterpiece. If I was a girl haha, I would love it.

very nice work! you have that really rare talent of being artistic and quick. i attended a fine arts school and many people were talented, but it'd have taken them quite some time to produce such a work.

show us some of your other work!

Thank you everyone for the kind words.

Julie: thanks for the ego boost! :P

Paul and Nicki: I will be sure to tell you how she responds. And Paul, just PM me about it if you like.

Tim: I found the talent in a dumpster and took it as my own :P

Oscar: It took me about 8 hours to make, maybe less, I don't really count. I currently go to a fine arts school and I am blown away by some people's work.

And as you asked, here is some of my other, older work. I still have to add in all the works from this semester!

Thanks again everyone

Aidan
