Self Portrait Watercolor: MARJORIE STRIDER and Martial Raysse Style
I did two new watercolor self-portraits. In order to make these paintings, I first took two selfies. I used them as reference before rendering the finished artworks. The first painting was done Marjorie Strider Style. She is an American painter and sculptor. Her paintings have a lot of 3D elements. The rose in the reference works sticks out of the painting. I wasn’t able to do any 3D Art. Still, I mimicked the rest of the painting style. I painted the rose with glitter to add detail to it. The rest was just a matter of defining the rest of...
Hollow Knight Fanart Shawshank Redemption Movie Poster Parody
Today, I did a new Hollow Knight fanart. This one is also Halloween theme. It is a movie poster parody of the Shawshank Redemption. There is nothing more terrifying than the very real possibility of being sent to prison for a crime you didn’t commit. In the world of the Hollow knight, Hornet gets accused of a murder she didn’t commit. While in prison, she makes friends with the Mantis Traitor. I gave her a little hat. This makes her look more like Morgan Freeman. One day, Hornet hatches a plan to escape. She meets up with her friend in...
Pink Ribbon Ink Art: Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Today, I wanted to show you four ink arts I made for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I made videos of all my ink arts. The long and short version of those videos are already up and about in Youtube. The short versions can only be found in my Tiktok. So, this is ideal for folks that prefer to see a video, instead of reading about my artwork. All my new paintings were made with Pixiss ink and paper. The paper is designed specifically for these types of inks. I took photos of both the wet...
Watercolor Self Portrait: Botticelli and Seurat Style
Today, I wanted to show you my latest watercolor paintings. The first one was done Seurat style. Georges Seurat is the inventor of pointillism. It is a style where you use dots in order to make a painting. The dots are usually of primary colors. They blend together optically when you move away from the painting. I recently read a biography about him. He died young because he liked maidens more than he liked painting. A good chunk of the impressionist painters died for that very reason, with the exception of Degas and Monet. Both men were too busy painting...
Hollow Knight Jaws Fanart Claws
Today, I did a new Hollow Knight fanart. It is a parody of the movie poster of Jaws. In my version, it is Claws. It is fun to imagine classical movies with Hollow Knight characters reacting to the situations. Hornet plays the role of the lovely lady that was the first victim of the Shark Jaws. It is funny. Nobody in the movie calls the shark Jaws. Instead of a shark, I used a Centipede. They are called Garpede in the Hollow Knight World. They are practically indestructible. They are more common in Deep Nest. This one is immune...
