Throwback Thursday

A dragon from 2003 done in graphite. I really like how I drew and shaded the dragon here, especially the head so I really need to draw another dragon in this style soon.

Starting Another Cute Dragon

Image
This time for mother's day, which I don't actually celebrate but figured I should probably create something for it. Going to be another digital piece, with hopefully a lot of pastel colours and the goal is to get the text looking like decorated cookies.

Website Redesign

Image
Redesigned my website and blog so they look simpler and are very monotone. Makes any art I post stand out more.

Supertoys Last All Summer Long and Other Stories of Future Time by Brian W. Aldiss My rating: 3 of 5 stars Hi-tech Pinocchio but a bit bleaker View all my reviews   Jennifer's bookshelf: currently-reading Neuromancer by William Gibson I guess cyber punk sci-fi is just not for me. What little character development there was felt very rushed, interesting ideas just felt everything was too rushed and not really explained well. I know this is his writing style, but just c... tagged: currently-reading Grid Systems in Graphic Design/Raster Systeme Fur Die Visuele Gestaltung by Josef Müller-Brockmann tagged: currently-reading Making and Breaking the Grid: A Graphic Design Layout Workshop by Timothy Samara t

Finished St.Patricks Dragons

Zazzle Store Redbubble Store Finished my dragons for St.Patrick's Day. Very green, but can't go wrong with green for that holiday. I wanted to keep them cute and simple. Not because I was being lazy, I just wanted something very basic :)

I had a quick look in the closet in my studio and there is a lot of junk there lol also some old art. Not too old, but around 10 years old, so worth a laugh. This watercolour dragon is from 2009.

St Patrick's Day Dragons

Image
The start of some dragons for St. Patrick's Day. Needs a lot more work and another dragon added to it. Side note: I've been sick the last 2 weeks. When I get sick, I get sick which is why I get angry at people when they are sick and cough everywhere. Stay the hell home people (or at the very least stop coughing/sneezing into your hands and then touching everything). What might be only 2-3 days of you being sick might mean someone else spends a month ill as a dog or in some cases ends up in the hospital.

More reading done for my Masters course. Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut My rating: 2 of 5 stars OK I think I'm just not a Vonnegut fan. Or maybe its the fact I'm not generally a fan of war novels of any kind *shrug* Odd mixing aliens with a war theme, didn't add anything to the story and probably would have been better without it. View all my reviews   Ubik: The Screenplay by Philip K. Dick My rating: 4 of 5 stars Would be interesting to see actually if this was made properly. The problem is, I don't think anyone has really done any Dick adaptation justice. View all my reviews   The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin My rating: 2 of 5 stars Re-read for course. didn't like it any better than last time. Too long, too boring and trying to be too damn technical to try and sound smart.
