Artist's Comments
Hey there, I already submitted this a while back, but I've continued to work on the painting and now have a better photo of it, so now I'm completely satisfied with the piece. A special thanks to everyone who enjoyed it before, I do appreciate it. But please come back, because it kicks ass now
Bookcover illustration for The Man Who Laughs by Victor Hugo. The story follows Gwynplaine, who was horrifically disfigured as a child when he's sold by the evil king of England to this group of gypsies that made a living by mutilating children into circus freaks. They carve out the corners of Gwynplaine's mouth leaving him with a horrid permanent grin.
16 x 20, oil on canvas, first thing i've actually painted on a canvas in years.

This is absolutley fantastic, Clay. I'm glad I waited to comment, since I had this feeling that you were going to take this further. My favorite parts are his eyes, and of course, the mouth. The values just look so smooth and have good emotion behind the hard work you probably put into this. Plus I love the combination you use of realism ( the texture of his face) and the appealing look of formalism ( the hair and eyes). I hope that made some sense, but in other words: this just takes the cake. I'm glad you're happy with it, because this really is great stuff you're creating. Keep it up, Clay!

Amazing painting... The expression and emotional depth is very well rendered... however, I'm not sure about the smile. I understand what you're trying to portray (aesthetically and emotionally) but the elongated corner of the mouth (the cut) seems to me to be superfluous and over-emphasized undermining the emotional expressiveness of the painting. Extraordinary work though... Bravooo...
A brand new monthly article which showcases some of deviantART's finest equine artists, as well as recognizing the lesser-known but equally talented ones. Interviews, helpful tutorials and features can all be found here too! I hope you enjoy it.
The idea of this contest is to set you up completely blind with a mythical being - from any world culture - and turn you loose to come up with a deviation based around it!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Lifehacker takes a look at the 5 Best online image editors. For those of you that don't use Photoshop, I highly suggest taking a look at this, as these apps allow you to edit your images in a browser window, and some are VERY powerful!
In this article you will find many thumbnails of the sun in different forms, all photography featured here by the club feature-me. Please show your support for these artists and their work and the article so that more people can see their work.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example.
