Usually all my art is 99% traditional but this one was a little more experimental. Instead of simply painting the whole thing in watercolour then scanning it in and editing it oh Photoshop, I instead planned out the image in my head, painted a few watercolour assets such as the night sky, stars, ocean, moon and stuff. Then I used Photoshop to put everything together. This allowed me to get the perfect mirror effects you see as the stars, moon and pyramid reflecting against the water.

Folk Punk Eclipse

Ink painting of some strange American creatures celebrating the eclipse. Partly inspired by the “love songs for the apocalypse” album art.

Hell

It’s been a while since I last posted, here’s a fairly recent ink & watercolor painting I did, it’s supposed to be hell or something, I wish I would have made the “city” in the middle look a little bigger, more buildings and such.

Anyway give this blog a follow if you like my art! I do sell designs and take commissions, message me for details.

The Crash

It’s a little illustration of a kid experiencing a saucer crash landing in the woods at night ft. an ayylmao. Painted using a mix of ink, stained charcoal and watercolour paint. Not the best not the worst it’s whatever.

This was a recent quick painting I did with inks and watercolours. There’s not a lot to say about it, I was trying to go for a horror painting so I guess it does it’s intended purpose.

The Core

So right now I have a thing for mirroring art, making it look the same (or similar) on both sides. This is a good example of it. The gravity flows differently depending on the side of the canvas. Painted with inks and watercolours.

Daria Here’s my kinda “realistic” take on the character Daria. MTV’s Daria was easily one of my favorite cartoons from the 90s, so I painted my interpenetration of how she’d look if she where a real non-animated human.
