Perfect Emptiness
Everything is supposed to be as it is.

Again, there are millions of interpretations.

I guess she's quite imperfect, but to the world outside she seems perfect. She cried a lot, that's why you can see her eye make up, and her lips are dirty, too because otherwise you wouldn't be able to see them either. I thought of a girl who got abused.

Or she's just blank. Hides feelings. I have no idea. But I just love changing pictures so that they .. mean something to me. That's why I'm quite pleased with that one. It might seem quite simple, but I never thought about a vector that long while creating it and played around with colors and stuff. For example, I vexelled the eyes, still I deleted them again because they didn't fit. Then I did the hair about three times. I never worked on a vexel that intensive before.

Time: ~ 6 - 8 hours, I've been working on that one for a week, on and off
Layers: Lost track. > 50 and < 100
Program: PS7
Favourite Part: Lips, teeth

C&C is appreciated!
Tools: Pentool, everything is gradient except for the outlines ( simulate pressure )

You are unfair... you vexel too fast. xD Love this.. and how everyone ca interpret it differently.. <3

[edit] You know, that would be awesome!! I'm kinda busy at the moment but it sounds great. :D I will go on another coldplay picture-hunt soon.. :)

Haha... I'll just take that as a compliment! Aw, Andrea.. I'm so flattered. xD juuuuust kidding. Thanks! Well... I started a couple of images at the same time and now ... I don't have a single picture to vexel because I'm still trying to find a good one of Coldplay. Eh - know what? We should do a Coldplay Collab together! ( If we find a picture that would work for a collab. You know? ) - Anyways.. thanks for the reply! *hug*
And I'm quite greatful to her that someone read my description and got the whole thing with the interpretations. xD

i think its beautiful! i looove gradients, i love challenging myself with them when i vector. the mouth is probably my favourite part. i just have a bit of criticism, which i hope you'll find constructive :) the right cheek shading (her right, not as you look at it) looks too defined coming out of the hair, and kind of pointy. i think you should soften that, and make the gradient less noticeable because it draws your eyes away from her face and looks a little odd. its a gorgeous vector though :)
Reply from
Well thanks! And I definitely consider this as constructive criticism! ( ; I know exactly what you're talking about. But even if I had softened the cheek it would still come out of nowhere because ... well it's all white around the pink-parts. xD You know? But I'm giving it a try for sure, - we'll see whether I like it which means I'd update the changed version or not. xD Anyways.. thanks! I love replies like yours!
*hug* And btw: The lips are my favourite part, too.

I love this.
When I first saw the thumbnail of it, for some unknown reason I thought it looked like Courtney Love.
It's absolutely great and I love how you've left it open to interpretation. +favourite :-)
