Star Power

Here is another picture I thought I had already posted. This was originally done as a black and white drawing for my black and white book "Darkness & Light" published in 1996, now out of print. I just had to color it once I saw it finished. I have always had a thing for the hair over one eye look, and this face is one of my favorites. Originally done in marker on Bristol this was printed on Goldenrod card stock and then hand colored with Acrylic and watercolor colored pencil. "Bright and Morning Star" 8 1/ x 11. Prints available.

Old God New God Old Pic

OK, I could have sworn I posted this way back when but it does not come up in a search and I did not see it scanning through the posts. So, here is a picture I did back in 1999. It was inspired by some of the Gods of India and the stories about them. The God Vishnu, is shown as a child and has stories about his youth, so I did this picture showing him as a young boy, meditating in a dancer pose, while standing in front of a waterfall and holding the flame of creation! This is "Divine Flame, Boy Vishnu", 16 x 20, Acrylic and watercolor colored pencil on Canson board. Original and prints available!

Finally New Art

Not what I should have been working on, not what I had wanted to do, BUT allergies make it hard to concentrate so doing something of my own was much better than doing commission work for someone else. This was inspired by Art Nouveau works, especially Mucha.  So, here is "Wings of Faerieland", 11 x 14 (more or less), Acrylic, Micron marker, watercolor colored pencil on Canson board. SOLD at Balticon. Prints available. Picture 10.

Sorry No New Art

I just noticed it has been a week since my last post. Due to allergies I have done very little art, wish I had something new to post! Soon I hope I have something new done to post.

New Box..sorta

My Tarot deck has been delayed in my putting decks together partly because my box design was not the best and I was looking for a new one. I finally realised I knew a leather worker who could make me a great new box, or rather a pouch to hold my cards! So from now on, those who get my Tristan Alexander Tarot will get them in this pouch!

Moderated Comments

I hate to do it, but I have a troll, an idiot who likes nothing more than to insult me and my work and so I will now have to approve ALL comments before they will appear! Sorry to those who comment and are not trolls!

Short Movie Reveiws

Just because I saw one bad movie and started rewatching another. Here are my very short movie reviews for;
Princess of Mars  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1531911/
This movie brings a new meaning to "special effects". They are "special" in the short bus form of the term! Seldom have I seen anything this bad. The sword fighting and even the running is badly done! Negative 3 Stars!

Predators http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1424381/
This movie had a good premise and some interesting ideas but one thing it did not have was a plot! Negative 1 Star.

More Coloring Fun

OK, I am doing way to many of these. Coloring and adding backgrounds to other peoples work. It is fun and I always get permission before I ever do anything with someone else's work. But I have my own full work to do and should be doing those. Anyway, this is "Suna, contemplation", 8 1/2 x 11 Micron marker, Copic marker, Acrylic on print. Picture 8.
Suna belongs to  http://syntharia.nabyn.com/ The original sketch is here  http://www.nabyn.com/art/deccomm-suna-38314 and belongs to Ryuuen Tanaka. Background and colors by me.

EVIL LIES

http://www.necn.com/03/01/12/Gov-OMalley-signs-bill-legalizing-gay-ma/landing_nation.html?blockID=661448&feedID=4207

The news keeps saying Maryland is now the 8th State to allow Gay Marraige! IT IS NOT!! We will never be allowed to be legally married. The law does not take effect till Jan. 2013 BUT the Christians are getting a petition to put our rights up for a vote this comming election and we will LOSE as we have every single time the rights of the minority is decided by the majority!

So DO NOT celebrate, cause it is a lie and a tease and hurts more because it is being dangled in front of us but we will NEVER be allowed to have it!

He's Dead, GOOD

Andrew Breitbart, Republican muckraker known for his attacks on liberals and Democrats, died unexpectedly of natural causes in Los Angeles early on Thursday, his family said. He was 43.


He never missed a chance to twist things to seem worse than they were or to anger people falsely for political gain. He spoke ill of everyone who did not agree with his twisted views and so I can say I am NOT sad he is gone. The world will be a little brighter without him!
