Hmm!

I need suggestions. What piece - no matter how old and embarrassing - should I redo for the Kick your own A$$ contest over at DA? I love such challenges. Here, you can pick from anything listed here: http://ellenmillion.com/category.php?catname=The%20Archives

Second from the bottom or the last one in 91/92

aaaw, XD

I was going to be a jerk and say something from 1989. XD But I like the "Moonlight Masquerade" one, or the random lady in an astronaut suit, from this gallery:

Woops... meant to reply to the entry, not your comment! Sorry about that. XD

I'd love to see a redo of either Wildwind or All Seasons. ^_^ I love the Kick Your Own A$$ contest idea and might dust off my watercolors and see if I can redo one of my oldies. *grin*

Not sure if it would count as a re-do, but I love the seventh one down in 2003 - the one with the fish in the bubble. It's such a lovely concept!

It's the dragon -vs- warrior chick fighting coming to life from a book. A good concept in need of a good drawing!

I'm going to have to look at that contest. I've been re-doing a number of pieces recently!

I guess I didn't explore your website enough, I hadn't seen these archives! It's really neat to see your "art journey." Your artwork has always felt very similar to mine, I can see some of the same influences early on. I wish that I had kept my older art. We moved almost every year as a kid, and never kept anything. I haven't moved as much as an adult, but I did throw away two big boxes of college-era art a couple moves ago.

I am tickled by this comment, because I adore your work and it flatters me to think that you see our work as similar. You do the kind of stuff I WANT to do but feel like I fall just short of achieving. I would have liked to see some of your older art, too. :(
