Happiness

Creative Quarterly, a national magazine for emerging artists/illustrators/designers what have you, came out with its list of winners today, and it looks like I got some pieces in. Huzzah! The website is apparently still under construction, but when it's ready, I'll let you guys know.

Dimensional Hyper Gnat

Trying to keep up a steady diet of Photoshop sketching, which isn't so difficult sans employ.

Sturm, Drang, Gradient Filters

Couple of newbies. I'm working with lower contrast/less color for  a while. Hopefully, that'll make it easier to nitpick subtle details when called upon to do so. The bottom one is a wonkish self portrait I like anyway.

Axial Symmetry

I fear I am repeating myself, which is apt to happen when I just noodle in Photoshop for a while. So, after this, something _completely_ different. 

This guy is from the early days of Archetype. His name is Graen, after a municipality in Austria. Yes, my naming strategies are precisely that random.

Timing

I painted this today for a contest that apparently ended a month ago. It's June, Brian. June. Temporal displacement aside, I'm trying to soften the 'black cutout' appearance from my promo pieces.
