Dream

I remembered a dream that I had, a few years ago, one of those dreams where you open your eyes slowly, the sheet puling from between your consciousness and reality.
It started off as one of those typical “save the world!” and my mission was to kill this Voo Doo king who had conjured rabid zombies [...]

Thursday Post for Sunday

Oh yeah!
I keep on forgetting, but I was sketching on my tablet on Thursday, when my mum’s dear dumb dog barked – I shushed him and shooed him from the living room, before returning to my laptop.
About a few minutes later, I felt a KOKOKOKOKOK, and opened the door. A second passed, and my old [...]

ANIMATION!!!

Bloody heck and damnation…
Finally, I figured out the bloody Corel Painter X program, and with lots of savings and duplicated files and nervous shortcut keys, I kicked up my first digital animation (okay, first non-flash digital animation), wrought by wacom tablets and digital pens, in a fusion so terrible of forty five frames,
I present.

Kimono

Fiddling around with photoshop… I’ll probably end up creating like seven different final pieces out of this digital coloured drawing!

I just love drawing my doc martens, even though they’re becoming quite tattered. I’m dreading the thought of actually having to buy a new pair (and I should before they get Made In China) and having [...]

Cleaners And Sweepers

So I’m cleaning each of my scans (a bit of a tedious process) and there pops up from time to time the temptation to completely rework over a original drawing. I’m trying to keep them au naturale, raw as possible, but some of them were drawn a while ago, so concepts do change over time… [...]

10am Steak (not minutes!)

Yeah, this really happened at Ruabon Road, Toorak… The ant wasn’t happy with me for the next few days. Erm.
And before you ask, I haven’t had steak for a long time, and most certainly not 10am ones!

Fortress Of So-Called Soltitude

This is my fortress, in the front room next to the heater, where I lean back and look up at the skylights.
…The skylight right above me has the silhouette of a dead cockroach.

Portfolio Progress 2

Another image cleaned up…

Some of you may probably don’t know, but I’ve put myself under a self-imposed exile of sorts since yesterday, or Lizard Siege, much like what happened at VCA when the deadline for your whole semester submission of (4 months) body of artwork was due in two weeks. Naturally.
So I’ve about two months [...]
