Hi NL--and what a fabulous update!!  The gouache paintings are just gorgeous--I agree with Azure that the Vader one is "haunting," but in a very good way! The prints are wonderful--were those lino cuts, or some other printing method? The details are awesome! And your cat is too cute (who doesn't love a kitty?  )! Mouse! LOL! That's a unique name for a cat! Great, great work here--and good luck with all your school work!

Hi and welcome to my thread!  Actually I haven't painted gouache for quite a long time and I have to analyse the color with PAINTER before I painted. Very glad you like them, thank you again. BTW, I really like your name, Azure is just the meaning of my real name in Chinese!
FF
Hi there!  The print is the picture printed from an engraved plate( I looked it up from different dictionaries and they call this kind of picture print. So I have to explain it in such awkward way,LOL) And thank you so much for your concern , my midterm grade is better than I expect

Great paintings, NLS! The Vader one depicts the show from the movie and captures its essence very well. I'm not sure is the other one Padmé? Regardless it is very nice as well.
ROFL @ your cat! I love cats, and I miss mine that live at my parent's house.

Finaly I'm back!  It's just a great pity that I don't have much time to see others' artwork.  Anyway, I decided to post some drawing here first.

Thanks you, I think I'm not that good at gouache painting and I really appreciated your praise. 
The girl is an unknow celebrity to me cuz my friend don't wanna tell me who she is.

Ankara Dancer:It's a sculpture I saw on a book about decoration.
Lightning: There's much rain in June this year and I heard that many places in my country have flood .In my city it had rained for over 2 weeks! And I took this video at night when it was about to rain.

Oh, wow... The Ankara dancer is just gorgeous, NL!! Such a beautiful and delicate rendering, and all the detailing is amazing... Gorgeous shading... **sighs** Just gorgeous!! It looks like a book illustration about great sculptures of the world...amazing!
I still love that "futuristic" structure you can see from your roof--it's so beautiful! I'll make a suggestion that, for your low-light or night photographs, you try using a tripod with a remote shutter release for the camera: a firm steady stand will crisp up these images, and allow you to achieve a much better quality. Even just setting the camera on a hard surface would work--but a tripod is a great tool for low-light or night photography (learned this from my photographer husband!  ). No matter how hard we try, when we handhold the camera, it's impossible to be as absolutely still as slow shutter speeds require. See if a tripod helps (some of the small ones can be had for relatively cheap!)!

I'm really HAPPY to hear you say so! Actually the sculpture is way more beautiful! I will find a chance to post it here.
And thanks for your suggestion, I suddenly remember that my Dad has a tripod for DV. I don't know if it can work.

*is also astonished!*
Wow, great up-dates and you are a master of many art materials, NL.
*looks over to the Chinese Ph. D. college of her beloved master & commander DarthUncle (short: DU)!*
I chose my name due to Anakin's choice of his 2nd ship in the Clone Wars and because of a song text from the French musical NOTRE DAME DE PARIS. I had NO clue about the Chinese meaning.
*beams!*
Anyway, you asked me a question about my latest up-date: how I did it? Well, inspiration and a lot of time on a train journey from Germany to the Netherlands.

Whoa! I love the Ankara Dancer! It's just beautiful! It would be great to see how the original sculpture looks. And those photos are great too. I think the three Before Storm-photos and the third moon photo are my favorites. Those have some really nice colors and light.

Thank you! I'm flattered!
P.S: I just find that you are from Germany! Oh my!  I'm a goth and I really like Germany!
Fenrisulven
Thanks! I think that the before storm ones have strong clone war atmosphere so I just took it And here's the Ankara Dancer sculpture:
I have to admit that I still have a lot to learn,LOL. I think the sculpture is really a master piece!
And as an art lover, I think it's my responsibility to let more people know those great artworks. So I decided to post a flash called Cat here.This video is widely spread in my country.I remember that a newspaper once said it's a story that can make you cry for 8 times. The story is about a little cat tried to rescue his mother from ghostdom.So enjoy it:

So you are Chinese? That is nice. My boy-friend DarthUncle has some Asian colleges!

hm, yes, true, some vietnamese, some from India, and quite a few Chinese but they mostly do more experimental chemistry then I do, so no direct collegues. Today however I was busy preparing a computer for a new Ph.D. student who landed earlier today at the Airport and who will be with us for the next four years as a theoretical chemist, in the office next to me * Azure*
I really like your art NL! very nice eye for detail, and a way to make it come to live. Great work!

It's really a LONG time since my last update... The class-divided test just drove me crazy!
Anyway, here's the new post: Portrait of Padme Amidala in Ep3
And I took the picture of my bitter melon:
 my black-painted nail isn't very fit for the lovely melon,LOL
