Ask and Ye Shall Receive

Journal Entry: Sun Jun 24, 2007, 5:33 PM
  • Mood: Artistic
  • Listening to: Cole Porter
  • Drinking: Irish whiskey
I've got the best mom in the world. She got sick of hearing me whine, so she sent me a digital camera, about a week after my last journal entry. The intervening time has been spent trying to take pictures that look decent. I've achieved partial success, so here's a bunch of new stuff.

Once again: Buy my prints! I've got a mortgage to pay! :)

Just kidding.

Well, no, not really.







WORKS IN PROGRESS:

Completed, need to scan:
Many, many pencil and charcoal drawings.

Nearing completion:
(In a "Zeno's paradox" sort of way. I wonder what it feels like to actually finish a painting?)

(That's Zeno's paradox. Which has to do with never being able to reach your destination because you always have to cross half the remaining distance first. As opposed to Xena's paradox which has to do with how she manages to avoid popping out of that breastplate during all the acrobatic fight scenes.)

The Sun - acryllic


In progress:

Odin - acryllic
The Star - acryllic
The Empress - acryllic

Planned:
Loki - acryllic
Freya - acryllic
BB King - pencil
Janis - pencil
Billie - Acrylic
Blue Monkey series (don't ask)
Tarot Series

I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Thanks so much!

Steal away! (Just post what you do, 'cause I wanna see it!) As my sweetie always says: "Amateurs borrow. Real artist steal." I nicked the idea from a cropped photo in a guitar mag, anyway.

Superb Gallery!

I particularly loved the hand portraits of Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Unique and beautiful! Favourites for sure! I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea someday!

Peace,
Willo

You have some fantastic pieces in your gallery, I really can't mark out any of works, they all are wonderful but what really catched my eye was work "Eric Clapton" - great style and shading! :clap:

(As Mick is leaving)
Mick: I would recommend not going into the office.
Beth: Okay
Mick: Okay… Or upstairs. Or through the grey door
Beth: Wow, this all sounds so Alice in Wonderland!
Mick: Beware of the bottles that say drink me, okay?

Can't wait!

I've been thinking of doing a painting of Serenity itself... It's a gorgeous ship. Just having trouble finding the time for everything I want to do...
