Colors!!!

So I finally got on the Nintendo DS "Colors" bandwagon. I can see what all the fuss is about. It's a nifty little program that is basically the program "Painter" The only things that suck is that there is no undo or layers, but that's kind of cool. It removes that as a crutch. Anyway these are my first two "pretty" lame attempts with the software....

Blah!!!

Man! It is so frustrating to have a great idea (at least to me) and then the execution just falls so flat. sigh. Oh well maybe if I do about 10,000 or so more of these I will suck less....

This was inspired by an idea my brother Mike told me long ago about hills where giants were buried. I imagined that ancient peoples would see this hills and imagine giants underneath.

Holy Calamity!

Scream Insanity! Two NEW art posts in as many days? Surely a sign of the coming apocalypse.

I may just start a series of castles and temples. It's been pretty fun, but those who know me know I never finish and projects. :) I'll just take it piece by piece...


This is my thumbnail sketch...


And the finished piece...




Also, I am SO stoked that Obama won the Democratic nomination!!! WOOT!

NEW ART! For reals!

So I finally threw the gauntlet down and created some non work related 2d art.

A homage to one of my favorite games ICO.... in spirit only I just wanted to paint a castle scene at sunset.
