amybean-Thank you my dear..
Rumor has it
hewey's next swap will have a bird's theme...
YAY!!!!
Jason-shush!
Get back to that canvas,velvet-jedi!
MeHeadhunter-
scroll down....a lil surprise for YOU!
talo ka-thanks man! I like to throw a gear in the narrative sometimes....
approach it a bit deeper than just a shrunken head
or a headhunter's village...Did that with Cannibals for awhile
(Lonely Cannibal/Haunted by Past meals/Remorseful Cannibal/Cannibal Family)
Took a look behind the psychology of the cannibal,y'know?
Greg=Soon,my friend!
and the studio should be pretty done by then!
Bring some booze and ....stuff!
:)
Thank you for always being such a positive encouraging voice in the community....
pennjones-Thanks pj!I have another raw sketchbook entry below for a recent commission
I like to share them because it's a fun way to break down the artist/audience barrier
to show them how sometimes a raw scrawl can develop and evolve..
But,i think you'll agree, sometimes just spilling it out all at once and fast
captures something that a painted version cannot capture without effort....
I'm currently working on a SECRET PROJECT that already has 10 pages of raw sketches invested into it...
will share those after the UNVEILING...:)
OOOH! How fun! SUSPENSEEEEEEEE!
Anyways, A big smile and thank you to all that happen to visit and get some eyefuls!
Anyways,this is kinda unprecedented,but I'm gonna post a finished commission RIGHT HERE!
Even before the Actual Owner-to-be has seen it....
We'll call him Mr. "M" to be all mysterious....
Anyways, Mr. "M" acquired this fine piece a while back...
"Drummer Possessed"
tissue paper stain,ink, and colored pencil on watercolor paper
private collection
He recently put put out a supervillian network search
and one of my agents arranged for a liason
under a bridge...
Anyways, Mr. "M" is a jack-of-all-trades
and is currently a high-level assassin for numerous countries...
Anyways, Mr. "M" is famous in his circle for owning a modified Didgeridoo of Doom
which he has used in countless successful missions...
Anyways, my assignment was to create another tribesman from the same village
playing this Didgeridoo...
This weapon has a distinct personalized pinstriping on it...
part of the mission was to capture this embellishment on said native's instrument....
Anyways, in the ever-consistent style of breaking norms and taboos and conventions and supervillian guild rules
may i present for the first time publicly..
"Night Song"
tissue paper stain,ink, and colored pencil on watercolor paper
private collection
and here's a close-up of the pinstriping...
And here you go,pennjones... an initial sketchbook study...
Well, I'm beat from a loooong day of getting yet another room of the studio all spiffy!
Been thinking of an open studio sometime next year,,,,,,,and an artjam too!
soon,my pretties!
Anyways! Have a great evening!
