Science and Magic - Horrible animal experimentation that happens in my novel Malarkey and Belinda. (Undescribed). Illustrations done as Bestiary pages. I did all of the illustrations like this - various fantasy-creatures, some from actual mythology and some I made up exist in the world's setting. Very OLD art pieces. If you were to get the novel, these color illustrations only exist in the Deluxe Edition. The Basic Edition has black and white pen illustrations (of the same creatures with the same text). These versions are acrylic paint on coffee-stained (or tea staining? I think I'd used coffee) paper overlaid with text. Anyway, rifling through some of my old artwork today - and the folder I have related to my novel I saw and remembered these fucked up things. (And I gave a thought to how despite being way off course, a fantasy-world rather than a sci-fi / western world, how I've long been influenced by one of my favorite series of media, Trigun. My title-character was influenced by Vash, in a way, of his being a living weapon who does not want to be - albeit in a different fashion and I just realized when rifling through my old work how much TESLA seems to haunt my dreams enough to influence the stuff that I write and draw that's even in a wildly different world-setting). Um... I posted this to share my artblr with my trigunblr because I think my Trigun followers might enjoy it? Don't worry - in my book, the evil scientists get theirs by the end of it. I have one lady scientist get torn apart by the golden dogs.

woodwork; Boxed-In

Above: Scrap wood pieces. Using coffee as a stain varnish on the homemade book cover. Not very functional but I enjoyed making it (for holding CCS notes).

Below: The small square wood pieces are not exactly squares, they are cut at a slight angle. I was experimenting with using this simple form to try and illustrate movement.
