"Strobe"

Charcoal

Continuing my charcoal portrait series, I bring you "Strobe", a different way of looking at femininity in light. If I had the motivation, I'd start this one over. I don't necessarily dislike it, but it could be better, and I made a few mistakes early on that affected the rest of the piece.

"???"

Pen on Canvas

This piece was largely a disaster. It was going to be something completely different, but due to a combination of me being unable to find a large square canvas, not being able to think up enough ideas to fill up the entire canvas, and the difficulty of using pen on canvas, I ended up with this. I like the concepts of a handful of the things on here, but separately and not in this format.

"Bear in a Bed"

Acrylic Via Palette Knife

Palette knives are so much fun. I am in love with the bear and bed, like the walls, and hate the bed-stand and floor. I defaulted too quickly to blue, and blues and reds together give me headaches after "Moulin Rouge". The bed-stand is also out of proportion.

"Tiki"

Acrylic on wood

The yellow lines you see are actually carved into the wood. This piece was pretty experimental for me in a number of ways, including the intense color.

"Yearning, an Idol That Feasts"

This is a mask I made for a haunted house I designed. It is an escaped experiment in an immoral, somewhat satanic science laboratory.
