Sometimes I Just Art For Me...

So, I'm working on a few different commissions

at the moment, but I'm not ready to share

any of them yet.  So, for now, I'll tide you over

with this piece...

 

Art Markers and Ink on Paper

July 29, 2012

Don't ask me what it means, because I 

could only guess...  Just before I got 

my official approval on a booth for the 

Fan Expo, I felt the urge to draw.  Just draw,

no purpose, or ulterior motive.  Simply to let

my artistic energy flow.  This was the result.

Let's just say I had an attack of surrealism.

Any other explanation concerns me, o.O ...

100% made-with-TLC Tee's

So, I said I've been designing/creating t-shirts for the 

Toronto Fan Expo.  Did I lie? Never!  Bear in 

mind, these are all tester tee's, so I was working

out the kinks when I made them.  However, although these 

are but the tip of the iceberg, they should give you a 

sense of what to expect...  I designed them all by 

me-self, too!  >.<

These are made with silk screen paint applied by 

a stamp I hand carved. I then go in and add or 

enhance details by hand, adding more colour as I go. 

The result is just what the title says; tee's made 

with love! And each as unique as the person 

who wears it.

 

 Yeah ya do! Doesn't everyone...!?

This was my first tester tee, and I have not yet 

acquired metallic paint.  So, as awesome as it is,

it can only get better.  >.<

 

 

 

So, do you *brain* zombies? Or zombie *brains*?  

For me, it depends on the day, and the person...

 
Now, a few things to note on this one. First
off, because my tester tee is ribbed, I lost a
TON of the detail. So as pretty as it is, it's
even prettier applied to the right surface.  Secondly,
although this stake-through-anatomical-heart
will be a stand alone design (note the placement
on the tee  >.< ), it is actually part of another
design, as well...  The other stamps for which have
been carved, I simply have not yet made a test
tee for it. Patience. I promise I'll share soon.  However,
first person to guess correctly in the comments will
get a free tee of their choice! 


Aaaaand, I also have a Steam Punk design all trussed
up, and ready to go.  I just need to get better pic's. 
So, guess what I'm gonna say next? LOL... Yup:
Stay tuned  ;P

A Game Of Thrones

"Hello My Name Is..." 

India Ink & Art Markers on Poster Board

11" x 16"

As a Canadian, every time someone said "Winter is coming"

on the show, I thought "you're point?"  But when this guy 

showed up, I got it.  And then I thought, how funny would it be 

if his name was Winter?  Thus, this image was born.  This is another 

piece I will be selling prints of at the Toronto Fan Expo, this year.  

And still, more to come! ;)

A Few of the prints I'll be offering at the 2012 Toronto Fan Expo...

 

 'Dryad' - Ink & Art Markers on Paper, 11" x 14"

Close up of the Dryad, herself.

Because of the grain of the paper she didn't photograph too well, 

but you get the idea.  This piece is one of a few fantasy prints I'll be offering.

 'So Long, Farewell/SteamGirl' - Pencil on Paper, 11" x 14"

 Close up

To be honest, I haven't decided yet if she's done, but I'll post 

pics if I make changes.  For now, she can give you an idea

of what my Steampunk series will be like.  I'll be creating

several Steam themed pieces for the Fan Expo, this year.

It's a genre I've fallen head over heels for. Oh the possibilities!

 'Beating a Dead Tauntaun' - Ink & Art Markers on Paper, 11" x 14"

Okay, so my sense of humour's twisted...  But you laughed,

which means yours is too!  I know George Lucas finally 

'stepped down', but I don't know how long that will last.

The fact remains that no one can beat a dead horse like Lucas.

So there you are, and I have several more twistedly funny 

pop culture pieces in the works.   

Aside from these pieces, I've also created and carved my 

t-shirt/book cover designs.  However, as I have not yet 

printed them onto T's, you'll have to be patient.

No worries, when I do, you'll be the first to know!

So, stay tuned! ;)
