Smoke & Mirrors

I don’t want to set the world on fire
I just want to start a flame in your heart

Mouthful - ACEO artist trading card - gothic, dark, twisted, and weirdly angled

There’s really no middle ground with you

“Either you don’t care at all or you care a hundred and crazy percent.”

let the good times roll

I don’t like receiving mail from unhappy clients in ALL CAPS first thing in the morning, on a weekend, when I don’t get paid. We need to make a special mail filter, you know, the kind that doesn’t let mail like that come through until *after* I’ve had a huge cup of coffee. Going through [...]

unfinished

and I have a feeling that’s the way this one will stay.  My fingers twitch every time I try to work on this thing, so much so I can’t keep steady lines and everything turns clumpy. Clumpy is bad, kids, real bad. click, click zoom

monkey bones

“sometimes when we hold on to things, we cheat ourselves”

kind of appropriate these days, but hey – no rest for the whiny. revisiting a recently put-away CG work, featuring some minor edits and major filtering… you’ll remember it from this post: Lighting’s pretty dark here but the contrasts make it work. In other news: Someone requested another private commission with a jazz/blues theme. That [...]

skulls, antlers and swirls oh my

We that are true lovers, run into strange crappers…

That’s right, crappers. Tonight I was domestic with the cleaning up and the making of roast beast in a big pot with po-ta-toes. The world is lonesome and… tender. BTW – Skulls eating horns in the 11th dimension of swirly, psychedelic doom… with amps and guitars and stuff. If only you knew how many incarnations [...]

monkey bones

good morning heartache, what’s new?
