Artist's Comments

This is a shameless duel entry. I’ll eventually get around to shading the original traditional drawing to submit it for the art history art nouveau, unless I come up with something else, while this digitally colored version goes of to bravely face the other entrant of the coffee contest over with :iconevilauthoressk-chan: [link] for news feature

And just so we clear this up, it’s a before picture, which is why there is the certain lack of perk and caffeine ;)

The concept is the family breakfast;
To the man coffee is a luxury, something to savor.
For the lady it’s the fuel necessary to brave another long day.
And for the child, who have probably sneaked a taste once, can only look on the spectacle with disbelief and scorn.

Personally, my own attitude towards coffee is still stuck happily and comfortably at Mystery :D

I'm more of a tea person, Earl Grey for preference :tea:

As for my own opinions on the work I rather like it, though the decoration turned out rather heavy looking. Chunky sort of.

I really like the overall design. It fits very well and all the colors play very nicely together. Also, the idea is really cute with the different relationships to coffee :) I'm a comfort coffee person myself
:iconashirin:
I really really like this. The layout's well done (Something I, myself, need constant work on lol), as always, I love your color choices, the detail on your faces is amazing, every piece you do, you can see where you've learned from past pieces, you know?

Still I sing bonnie boys, bonnie mad boys,
Bedlam boys are bonnie
For they all go bare and they live by the air,
And they want no drink nor money.

I must say the 20s-sques boarding and background really does work well for this image, and the style is eye-catch professionalism. All the emotions are capture perfectly, there isn't really advice I could give at all to improve this in the least bit.

Very nice. :) I like the use of both flat and shaded colours.

It's nice to know ones making progress. I wonder what it'll be like after 50 :? And thank you for the lovely comment ;)

Thank you. I hope the concept earns me some brownie points in the contest, and I’m a bit smug about it myself :D Mucha’s commercial work was somewhat of an inspiration, so what I’ve made is essentially a coffee commercial poster :blushes:
:iconmaverchare:
I'm glad the period style has stuck out well :) And while i love critique, there is nothing wrong the general good uplifting comment either :D
Thanks ;)
