Where the wild things are

Another portrait of my baby brother, inspired by the music video for 'the whitest boy alive - golden cage'. Which in turn is inspired by "where the wild things are" by maurice sendak.

Wow, lol and ure brother's expression is so cute. What software did you use? Gimp? or PhotoShop?

Thanks ! I'm not sure if this was photoshop cs3 or corel painter X. I think it was the latter. Never used gimp, but I might try it out if it's free.

Totally awesome! Have you thought of contacting Sendak with this video? I just know he'd love it! Back in the 80s I contacted Mr. Sendak, never expecting what would then happen. He ended up mentoring me for a short while. I still have those letters. Yes, letters. Back in the hand scrawl days! Do it! Your digital paint skills are incredible :-)

I would practice for a few more years before I dared to do that. :) Thanks for the comment!

Heyyy. We are all human. In those years I also contacted Boris Vallejo (Google; you will know him I think). The man called me on the phone! I had to sit down for that one. And he critiqued my work via phone... and later sent a letter. Maurice Sendak from what I've read, is okay now. But he's had poor health. We never know if we will see anyone, come the next day. Think how you feel when you receive great feedback. These giants are the same. Give it a try. He will love your work. :-))))
