Waiting for the Bus

[jibes]

You know, one of those cold early Dec late Nov mornings when the Bus will never arrive soon enough! At least 3 of them look cold to me. I don't know, I never rode a bus to school. I always lived 4 blocks away. :)
I started this one more than 2 years ago, maybe 3 and could never get it done. It used to have 5 figures instead of 4. ArtRage made it a snap to finally finish. The background is crude but I am fine with that.

nice one. good ideas are worth finishing. glad you shared it.

Neal, this really appeals to me in a Dick and Jane Basic Reader kind of way. Very reminiscent of that style of illustration in my mind. Wonderful. :)

Hi jibes, looking real in cold situation. Your painting is very beautiful including environment and people in action...waiting the bus.:D:D

Hahaha. Nobody seems happy about going to school. How weird is that! NOT!

[prabinpebam]

It's a beautiful painting!!

[ginahobbit]

Brilliant, I can even feel the chill in the air:)

[Caesar]

Your unique style is uniquely appropriate to express fully the poetry You see also in such simple moments! :)

[ScottF]

The stories that you create in your paintings are amazing.

Better said, your paintings make us create our own stories while we view them. Another great painting!

[coops]

Oh dear they don't look happy about the weather or school. Its a great painting Jibes I like it a lot:)

[Mike Severoff]

Remarkably!
Your music ("UP ON THE HILL") too very much was pleasant.
To all I advise :)
Thanks

[jonwood]

great piece...The expressions to me are saying "I wish I was back in bed! ":)

[jibes]

Wow! Thanks everyone and Thanks McKlay for listening to and promoting my song "Up on the hill."

[D Akey]

Yeah, I think the fifth kid graduated to a different school. Another good reason to not keep your models posing too long. Haha.

Looks interesting. They are leaning like wheat in a breeze, making them feel like part of the environment, and what affects the land affects them.

Cool work! Congrats on finishing it. :):):)
