Forces of Nature

shoutOut on 14/1/10 by ThirstyFly in

Alice in Wonderland (Down the Bunny Hole) was the perfect inspiration for chaos and the unexpected nature of general, everyday life. This rabbit represents anyone who is super busy with a chaotic life. You can’t control life. And as they say (without any swear words) . . . stuff happens!

i still think there’s been looking a lot at the work of niark1 , maybe to say not creative went a bit far ( too far ) but if you look at the line work and the bunny’s eye i see really big influences from niark.. not a bad thing cause niark is a amazing artist. If you thirstyfly never saw the work of niark than i have never said a word….

Wow! A teeny bit of drama just for me? My main influence for this drawing was the utter love I feel for this piece:

I am normally a flowy-pen-and-ink person, but I thought I would try something different. The line “if you’re not creative don’t try to be” falls into the category of not being constructive. Don’t worry, I am not going to win this contest. That red and brown voodoo bunny by “nicetomeetyou” kicks ass.

Erm… I dissagree with diamind. Especially about the being not creative part.

ThirstyFly – Forces of nature is awesomeness.

@diamind – did you mean two strong or too strong?

I’m all for creative criticism… I’m a girl, I know all about moaning. But all the “you are not as original as you’d think you are” – bitchyness sounds like a “Jy dink jy’s cooler as ekke” Jack Parrow song.

If I was going to cite influences I wouldn’t have cited THAT guy’s :)

Good work man.
