Christopher Vacher Artwork

[Shan]

I'm not impressed with this one especially the woman's face. The greenery could be sharper and more contrast in the colors. I do like the character, ghost, in the background and the wings. They are cool.

Fairy

[mobbie]

Naaah the pic is too cheerful and dim, there is not ENOUGH cheerfulness, and it's not dark, so there is at the same time too MUCH cheerfulness.. Ehr.. I'm contradictful, yes, I know
I suppose I like the water in it, a bit, the mini-waterfall ( between the two rocks) looks fun

[Shan]

Sorry, not impressed with this one at all. Probably the folds in the material are about the best part of the picture. Now who is going to tell me that I am wrong and that they like it. Fille, what do you think, agree or disagree? ;D

Evening Study

[Gray Lensman]

The Long Sleep does the best for me of the latest group, Shan.

Fairy and Evening Study don't impress me either, honestly. Evening Study... well, I like the lighting, the material is nice enough, but the rest of it does nothing for me.

Fairy... is just kind of eh to me, really. The wings are nice, though.

[Shan]

I love the depth of color and the lighting in this one. It is kinda eerie. A very interesting piece.

The proposal

[Shan]

Yay, Mobbie and Steve don't like Fairy either. ;D

I suppose I like the water in it, a bit, the mini-waterfall ( between the two rocks) looks fun

Nope, the water does nothing for me mobbie. It looks to fake more like some kind of material instead of real water.

[Shan]

Hmmmmm, more monoliths. Not as impressive this time to me though.

The Stand

[mobbie]

Well I am not speaking of the water in general Shan, just a certain part between the two rocks, don't get me wrong xD
I also think that the water looks... Gooey-plastic (except in my little favo spot)

[mobbie]

I almost like 'The Stand', add an evil magician and lots of red/black, and I'd love it xD

[Shan]

Nope, does nothing for me.

The Rebirth

[mobbie]

Hmm the sky is blobby, but a bit TOO blobby
The rocks are a bit.. ... ... ... CORNY! ... They aren't appealing...
The high-rising rocks are.. A bit lacking, something .. Can't put my finger on it...

The concept, I like, but the quality is wrong

Just about my thoughts exactly. Good call, mobbie.

[mobbie]

Weee MY SPOT! My preciousss... Soon we'll rule this whole river, from this spot!
*Pours soda in the water, to a deadly effect*


Weee, a 'Good call, mobbie. '

[Shan]

Pencil, did someone say pencil. Yeah this one is done in pencil.

The Missing Piece

Psssst, mobbie, maybe the fairy will drink the water now and die. ;D

[mobbie]

...What are you Shan, a mindreader? My plan all along was for the all the fairies in the forest to get sugartooth, and then they won't be able to restrain themself, and they will JUMP down in the water (or fly.. depending on current altitude) and when they are finally there, they will get stickily stuck, in the soda-water, and... Starve to death! (WEEEHO, then the picture will become a darkish one!)

But obviously you already figured this out, and you probably told the fairy queen (aka mother) on me

[mobbie]

Ever considered becoming a Jedi Shan? You know, 'Yoda wants YOU' ;D

Hmmmm, never thought about it mobbie. Would that mean I could go around reading your mind all the time? Uh, never mind. I don't think I'd like that. Might get to dark.

[LaFille]

I'm here, I'm here... Time to catch up again! ;D Been more absent the couple of last days, but it was just to come back better.

Gal; "claire" (clear) also means bright, you're right. Notice though, I wrote vale, not veil... ;D
I hope you'll get the answer from Vacher; it would be really cool.

The Oracle; I like the way the light is represented, and the idea of the very dark stone environment. I don't like the woman's face, though; a shame, since it takes so much place in the painting.
The Procession, not much; the concept is interesting but I don't like how it is rendered (more faded colors, less definition in texture...).

The long sleep is good; I wonder what is the idea behind that disc that seems to be the element of this [series?] of paintings...
Fairy, so-so, Evening Study as well. The proposal is indeed interesting; I like that [trunk?]. The contrast and tones in The Stand appeal me, but the way he made the wall and sky end in the bottom left corner is a bit disappointing. And agreed with Mobbie too about The Rebirth.
I'm not very fond of The Missing Piece, though I think it might be partly that the scan made it not so good.
