Easily one of my most successful portraits. Hand drawn private commission in pencil. I later colored it digitally with handmade paper, gold and oil emulsion.
Careful here Ladies, Gents and Selwits…..looks like we;re in danger of turning the big K into a version of Mr Spock…..and look at all the trouble he had with humans. 😀
I always have thought of him as rather Spock like. Spock after he’d become a Dad. Having Kovar might be close to having her real Dad back for Liana. Jason not so much I expect. no one will ever replace Aeren for him. Poor Kovar is just one of many Ovanan who have already discovered Humans are trouble! 😮 Humans and every other Earth species they encountered! Earth creatures, we are really horrible things! No wonder Niniri wanted to channel Marvin the Martian and use Liana to destroy our beloved blue home world in an Earth Shattering Kaboom. I wonder if Earth also obstructed her view of Venus.
You have just given me a Mental Image of Niniri dressed like Marvin the Martian, complete with oversize tennis shoes, tiny, little skirt and very silly hat….
(I’ll let you know when I stop laughing–IF I ever do!)
Read what? Imagined similarities between Kovar and Spock? Niniri as Marvin The Martian, clothes and all? Pesky humans and other assorted Earth creatures cramping the style of Ovanans? Remember, I also think that Prince Valiant and the CE-LO are the same species. Don’t Enel get me started on Darth Vader and General Tarkin as a Disco dancing couple. Or my theory about Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden……
Sorry I haven’t been on in a long time! Been dealing with crap like my surgery being postponed and some psycho ex best friend acting like a bitch and stealing my character and having her tortured because we had a difference in opinion. Just ugh. But! I am so happy to see Kovar (nearly) smiling. Tis wonderful!

Ko-Varrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
(He makes me *Purrrrr….*)
Wait! Is that just a hint of a smile?

The face says, “There is my Avatar. About to do something silly. It is very endearing. I will not crack.”
Stampers Saverem
Must. Not. Allow. Lips. to. Curve. Upward! *ARG!*
(Gonna’ sprain sum’thin’, Dude)
RabidEwok
Aww! Now I love Kovar even more! Everyone should have a Kovar in their life!
Which Avatar is it in this portrait that Kovar finds silly, yet very endearing? Seren or Liana?
Colleen
Probably the one whe gets drunk.
RabidEwok
Probably, yes. Kovar hasn’t had much time to really get to know Liana yet.
Stampers Saverem
My guess is that once he does know Liana better, he’ll just ADORE her!
(But very Stoically, of course…)

As far as Humans being a bit pesky for Ovanans–
Shoulda; thought o’ THAT

–‘a-fore comin’-ta’ OUR planet and ‘a-marry’n us!
*snort!*
(Same goes for Vulcans, for that matter)
Colleen
I never expected to pop into the page to read that, LOL!

Even. I also maintain my Android devices are ALL Cylons.

And just when I thought I might actually stop gigglin’ like a Fool–
She mentions Darth Vader and Tarkin DISCO DANCING!!!
*ROTFLMAO!!!!!*
questionwriter
Ah, Kovar, those lashes.
Maybe he’s born with it……Maybe it’s Maybelline.
Stampers Saverem
Eh, he’s Ovanan–They’re all born with perfect hair, growing in the most attractive places, and NONE of it ever needs fussing over, either!
[Tho’ the Mental Image of Kovar carefully applying mascara is another funny one!]

Oh, wow, so glad to have you back! Sorry you are going through some tough times, but so happy to see you again!
Storywriter
Thank you! And I have wonderful news! I’m scheduled for surgery on September 30th for my Cochlear implant! So excited!
Colleen
Hey! Wonderful news! Really hoping it works out for you!
Marti Dolata
This portrait reminds me of the portrait drawings of Hans Holbien. Superb.
Colleen Doran
Thank you!
