My Artwork
I don't claim to be an actual artist, in fact, I've only given my work away.
I also can't seem to find the time to do it so much anymore now that I've freaked out on my computer. Anyway, here are some of the things I've done, if you would like to see the larger version, just click on the small ones you see here.
This was the first thing I ever did.
(You can't even tell, huh? : )
Done in 1982, it's a watercolor still life.
This was the second watercolor I tried. Also done in 1982, it was supposed to
incorporate a "wash" with "dry" watercolor.
This is an acetate scratch over watercolor. Done again in
1982, I won a small scholorship with this one.
I did this one in 1993 with #'s 2, 3, and 4 pencils.
I guess I should've done it on something other than notebook paper...
This is also a watercolor. The flowers were picked by my son on a walk we took on Mothers Day, 1994. Although the flowers he gave me were beautiful, this is not one of my favorite works. If you look closely, you can see I have yet to finish the carafe they're in.
I did this one in March 1996, also with a few different pencils.
This was inspired by a band I was in for a short time that was going to be called, coincidentally, "Poser". Done in 1992 with pencils on lined notebook paper while drinking
beer, skipping school and lying in a hallway on some really
nasty orange shag carpet, this was to be our logo.
Done in 1997, the computerized version of the pencil drawing above.
From the drawing above, tweeked a little with PSP.
In 1995, this was the first thing I ever tried on a computer... I used Paintbrush with an airbrush because that was the only graphic program I had access to and I didn't know that
you could change it to a pen.
I also did this in 1995 with Paintbrush, then added some stuff with Photoshop. By this time I had figured out how to use Paint a little better... look how straight those lines are!
I did this at the ice cream shop in June 1997 with pencils because it was slow that day. I'm still workin' on it.
This one was done in 1997 with my son's watercolor pencils, Adobe, and Paintshop Pro.
