schoolwork; my version of a known piece of art.
the "Crying boy" ©Bruno Amadio, also known as Bragolin (1985) has numerous versions already but i wanted to make my own ;3 hoho, maybe i play with fire..

you see.. they say that the original -and it's copies- are cursed! people who have put one on their wall, their houses have burnt down and nothing but the painting survived the fire. and if you tried to burn it, it wouldnt lit!
funny, we had one on our wall for all my life, and wadda you know; i'm still alive and the house is standing. ;3 i actually like the piece we have.. ^^

..so that's supposed to be town in flames there on the back. poor cursed kid burned 'em all. yup.

i'm not that satisfied with his face, i didn't use any reference! rrr.. just started doodling.. uhhoh, i shoulda
in the original the kid looks like a 3-year-old. mine, well.. X3 sorry.

sheesh, you should see the original, it's SO dim, you wouldn't recognize it the same as here. X3 thank god for photoshop!

Nice colours, though pushes the firey death- idea towards, the mood is quite warm still...
niin no joo...
i really like the colouring, well actually i guess its shading, but i love it anyway. Especially the detail on his face, did it take long?

Pipe down, twitlings.
I like a lot your version; the original is nice, but I like yours most because you put your own style on it & that's a nice point :)
Good work & management of the materials (both pastels & PS) :hug:

wow, this is seriously AWESOME! I haven't seen the original, but I bet this is way cooler! I love the colour and the way everything just fades together, and your drawing style is lovely. Well done! :+fav:

YOU WORK THOSE PASTELS. The brickwall is lovely, I want to run my fingers on it. I love the city and the smoke waaaay back there. Pojun nenän sierain näkyy kyllä valuvan poskelle! Nom, hius-suortuvat.
