Sorry you all with slow internet connections (or internet explorer)! Good luck! This is all the art stuff I've been working on for the past 3 or 4 weeks. <3 you all!
First, as most of you know I want to get a guns and roses/ dark tower tribute tattooed on my right hip so here is some begining sketches of that, the only reason I am not getting that done really soon is that I am not quite satisfied with the design. My favorite is the last one but let me know what you think. The top one is the original.
Next is just a random landscape from the front of my old house on Roosevelt, I never finished it, and since I am not living there anymore, I don't imagine I will.
Random dragon portrait.. (2 versions, one original, the other played around with a bit)
This was the start of my tattoo style trend with my artwork. Its a mix between Ed Hardy style and Sailor Jerry style. I thought it came out rather well.
You all know I love Pink (yes, I know she is soooo 2000 but that's okay haha)
This is sunset, my adorable little sparrow, I was thinking he would look good on my shoulder (without the banner and the sun rays fading out). Original on top.
Random Virgin Mary tattoo sketch, inspired by my aunts Madonna statue collection. Original on top.
FEDERIGO!!! My next tattoo WOOT!
This one is named Avalon, I don't know why, just really random and rather depressing, actually.
This one had a formative idea but it kind of went way off course as I did it. The idea was kind of mapping the brain to show what people (me) are thinking and where in their head they think it. Like always in the back of your mind is survival, so survival is written on the back of the brain....Yes, it's confusing, that's how my brain works. ^.^
This was a drawing of an apparently famous picture that I found on the internet BEFORE MY LAPTOP WAS STOLEN DAMMIT but I changed the background.
Random mermaid #585357622 (tee hee)
Random portrait #79043428
Because I gave away my version of this picture on my resume I drew it again for me, but of course the original was better.
Another tree-woman thing. Oils, ugh!
My tag, I did it on the scrap paper from the next picture, so there were random lines and blotches of paint that I tried to make pretty!
Pretty paints! Oils and watercolors.
And now pictures of a pine box I decorated, yay fun!
And now, the highly anticipated picture of my cousin, Julian, and a panda picture I drew for him.
And me on halloween...
So anyway, I'm in a pretty good mood today, I had a really easy day at work, I got paid last Friday and everything is okay. I talked to my dad about flying home probably the 12th or 13th of December, he was obviously ecstatic that I wanted to come home so I guess thats whats happening. Today after work I went by this local tattoo place that came highly recommended by a friend and got a quote on getting Federigo tattooed on my ribs/side (it's going to hurt like HELL!) and I was surprised to find that with full color and proabably 2-3 hours of pain I would only have to pay $250-300 which is on the conservative side of my expectations. So, I'll probably get that done in 2 weeks after next payday. YAY!! In other news, my dad is filing for bankrupsy and my aunt is going in for surgery to hopefully remove the tumor she has next week. Damn, my family is falling apart ugh! Alex is, of course, royally fucking up in school (he got suspended for having pills (he won't tell anyone what they were) in school
