WIP Arterial, Part 01

27th
Apr. × ’10
I was asked if I could do a medically themed image for a semi-commission and I’d already had an idea like this brewing so I’m going ahead with it.  I was told that disembowelment was too far and I knew I wanted to explore medical themes in my work without resorting to images of the [...]

WIP Eulogy, Part 10

8th
Apr. × ’10
nother bird perches on cage for some foreground bird-age, and I’ve added the hand.  I’m hoping that’s a natural enough pose for “clinging to cage bars” Hands are so much fun to draw.  Sometimes I sit and gaze at my own for a little while. Is contemplating your thumb more productive than contemplating your navel?

WIP Eulogy, Part 9

8th
Apr. × ’10
The hearts of birds free and otherwise have been added and I’m pretty much happy with the iron. Some of what I did will be hidden by the hands but I don’t care because having created the thing in it’s entirety is something I cannot regret.  String/shoelaces have begun to make their appearances as expected [...]

Actaeon: finished!

2nd
Apr. × ’10
So I named him Actaeon, after the guy who watched artemis bathe. She turned him into a stag to be hunted down by his own hounds, and something about this guy makes me think vulnerability and the fruit seem like little voyeurs so it kind of fits.  This is the finished product! I’ve put it [...]

WIP FitS Window, Part 15

1st
Apr. × ’10
Last night I finished all the tiny hands. The faces of the fruits are also updated, you can see one here. It’s really almost done, I’m cleaning up some edges on the deer and then I think it’s ready to go.

Still in the refining stage. It takes more time than the rest combined, really.  The strings are shoe laces, ending them gathered in little plastic tubes. The branch hands are so much fun to do.

WIP FitS Window, Part 8

23rd
Mar. × ’10
I did a whole lot last night but was too tired to post it when I was done and not smart enough to post in a couple more steps as I went along.  Here is the string, and the beginning of color, and a preview of the first round of shading.  I’ve given up on [...]
