Update to the Collage

So that collage I posted a while ago of the Star Gate world with the pin up is becoming a painting. This is the under painting to the mock up. It's 8x10 and will ultimately end up around 20x30.

Neighborhood Walks

Love finding these beautiful little places in my neighborhood. I try to take a different route every day when I walk the dog. I think most of the buildings in the area are built in the 1890s. This castle building is from 1899 and was an Armory. Now it is a men's rooming house, much like the Armory on Atlantic Avenue built around the same time. Can't imagine what they look like on the inside now that they've been converted to living quarters. Probably much like a college dorm.

The rope swing is really romantic to me. To put something like that in the middle of a city is so fantastic. Using it must really transport you.

Painting Mock

I just love bad photoshop so much.

Fok Non Ratty

So my cat has killed a couple nice lately, which has got me thinking about vermin.

Which made me paint vermin. Obviously. I figured that rats would probably live in an underground anarchist society ruled over by the rat king, complete with bad rat graffiti. 

Portraits

I found some portraits that I took in the past couple months that are really lovely. Sometimes I surprise myself.

Comics

I've been rather at a loss when it comes to photographs since Graduating in May. I don't really know what I want to do, so I've been channeling my creativity into other projects. Recently I've been reading and looking at a lot of comic books, and got inspired by the simple way the story is told. There doesn't need to be much action to get the story across which is fun for me because I'm not the greatest figure drawer. I like to think of these little comics as visual haikus. Here's the first one.
