New Art: Angelic and Kira

I'm continuing to practice using different brushes in Photoshop to achieve a more traditional, perhaps painterly, appearance in my digital artwork. Here are two new drawings.

Selected prints are available at INPRNT. INPRNT produces gallery quality art prints. It's a fantastic way to collect high quality art while supporting independent artists.

Ad Mortem Tenemur

Title: Ad Mortem Tenemur

Medium: Digital Painting

This particular image has stuck with me for many years. I still consider this latest rendering a sketch, as I expect it will continue to evolve. Someday, maybe, it will find its way to oil paints on canvas. Perhaps then it will feel complete.

Digital Irony (and some artwork to go with it)

I have always disliked the process of making digital art while at the same time embracing it. I prefer the feel of pencil on paper and paint on canvas. I like to have a finished product I can touch. Digital work is illusory. Even when printed, it is simply a copy of what exists only in some ethereal digital plain. But here's the crux: digital tools make illustration so much easier.

T-shirts (and other stuff) Available

I've selected a few pieces of art to make available on Redbubble.com.  I hope you'll check them out. These images will rotate periodically.

The Swan, by Rainer Maria Rilke

I recently undertook a translation of Rainer Maria Rilke's poem, "Der Schwan".

Espero Despierto

Espero despierto,

Y cuando la esperanza se apaga, duermo. 

En los sueños busco otro anhelo

O al menos escapar.
