Its almost done (I think) maybe another 5 hours or so. I was hoping to finish it in a two 8 hour days, ah se la vi. Unfortunatly I think I'm coming down with a stomach flu or something, feels like I have brick in my stomach I hope this passes quickly. I need to get into Richmond to pay my rent in the apartment I don't live in. God what a wreck my life is- whatever- if I don't get sick I won't have to shit my pants all the way to Richmond. I'm going to post some more prelems for votive figures- its part of the way I work. I do a really fast loose sketch and find out what I want in an image and the basic focal points and story elements and then I do more defined sketches of every element in the painting but I don't put it together until I start doing an underpainting- mothing agrivates me more than a predetermined piece of art work. It is ture that I am risking compisitional instabilty and extra work but the character and enviroment get to grow and evolve so much more when I'm not "painting by numbers" as an professor called. (Man did I want to rip her head off. In my mind I was preparing for a career as in an illustrator something those hapless slaves to history couldn't understand-all the good it did me.) Anyway despite all my whining and grumbling whe was right but not in the wat she nor I expected. That turned out to be a rant. </p><p><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0Qy7EPSsH4BlcDJY6yHfQPN8OW0JV1TJ9uk40X4idAdXH-pn_3TiVtsUGKSUFrdR8lhSOY6l4Aj0xVbeHPtXLiPnAqC6wWF6V6AySiIafnoCwvsTUg7f7QVOLEpNnZGHbp-Mf13YU3UHE/s320/Votive+figures+2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298101856955096018" /></p><p>I know I was supposed to do seven figures.

Did a few random sketches to loosen up a little bit but besides that I've been preparing to work on a piece for a shape shifting character named Chance. I find that shape shifters present a unique challenge in conveying the idea that they have more than one form. And yes I've thought about having her in mid transformation but I've seen seasoned illustrators with far greater ability than me fall flat on their face trying that one so I've opted, as usual for a more subtle approach involving stone idols similar to votive figures of Mesopotamia to tell that part of the story. I want lots of shadows and maybe place it in a desert in a circle of standing stones not only are megaliths fucking cool but are excellent devices to portray her Fae lineage and extra primordial to boot. Harkening back to the college days here with black,grey,white red. Use to do sketches like that becuase I admired a romanitic painter so much I think his name was Gatto, he was supposedly the greatest draftsmen of the time. He was able to draw anything and anyone while maintaining supreme economy with his marks. Meaning each and every mark he put on the paper was pefectly placed and achived what many marks could not. I know it sounds pendantic but to us artists and draftsmen this is the stuff of legends. And there is that story. Oh,yeah here are the first 3 of 7 fuax votive figures.</p><p><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZf6dfBFvoFgfOGBAnbsRV1DKSXEWzgn20YIzB4OWhtkJcKA085aE6mdLZJ18ADPiA51Ws2g5J9t6s71bpEV8-9WxHAMlTMcA2IzO_ILGtSxI_C6KU1R6HlDh1a-zq-bpxuE4TTDOO0B2P/s320/votive+figures+1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296919980400791458" /></p>Cacologripherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00754178748933776272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765809468557922428.post-40971591869398382262009-01-28T20:56:00.000-08:002009-01-28T21:01:23.565-08:00The Death of a God, a Curse Upon Humanity.<p>Well, its done and its Wycked Awesome. </p><p></p><p><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv9NKlc8IRKjY18AQBg4Jib4KoM3PDR8Nn_463d_ai8MU_acE8bNXzTNW3UcFhMN3fLxxEh2OdQp4_OONmqp7EqnCuWjcchWIuwsN-oJJBXBCpFbX0YgJ2twNPhxWlh3Q-O5syqrBhRwjR/s1600-h/Destroyer+X.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 232px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv9NKlc8IRKjY18AQBg4Jib4KoM3PDR8Nn_463d_ai8MU_acE8bNXzTNW3UcFhMN3fLxxEh2OdQp4_OONmqp7EqnCuWjcchWIuwsN-oJJBXBCpFbX0YgJ2twNPhxWlh3Q-O5syqrBhRwjR/s320/Destroyer+X.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296575844415321730" /></a><br /></p><p>Can't think of anything to say.

Quite inspiring and thanks to this really keen image done by Tracy Swangler I was inspired to do one of my own- and then turn it into a logo to mock myself relentlessly –read on this will be explained. Normally, I try to avoid dragons because they are completely overdone in pop-culture, especially fantasy art circles. The truth behind their symbolic value is far more fascinating to me than any dragon depiction ever made but T.S. Easley and Todd Lockwood get really close. Normally dragons are cast as the anthropomorphation of a global or celestial forces so huge and the beyond [ancient] human comprehension. Like ultimate creation (Sumerian, Babylonian)Ultimate Destruction (Zoroastrian, Persian) first earthly manifestation of evil (Christian)natural boons and disasters (Chinese Japanese) and the list goes on and on. Anyway my personal favorite meaning is of western origin particular of Nordic Celtic where dragons are guardians of wisdom and knowledge. I could go on for hours about this stuff and end up writing a lengthy paper on the rapid corruption of the dragons symbolic meaning. Clearly it was an ancient cliché LONG before it was modern one and like immortal combat one is overbearing, two is a crowd and three is a recipe for disaster.<br /><br /><p>Not quite done with the destroying angel, perhaps later tonight.<br /></p><p></p><p><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 178px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTqAZho2nuyOxRbHlJdfQbXWZH_-3mjOykJddoS9YhJn61cIkVIJj-4syN80ReJrV8VBn8qaSPs-cw_vs932zHzBsBylktPHd8Nb03luahKAjVzWQDVo3GuGjIgkNufFESc14_fJMB4JX_/s320/Sun+Stealer+studios+logo+copy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5296127126452899906" /></p>Cacologripherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00754178748933776272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765809468557922428.post-35877354767554743592009-01-27T15:09:00.000-08:002009-01-27T15:10:12.672-08:00All dragons are lame but mine... and a few others.Cacologripherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00754178748933776272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765809468557922428.post-83871523600688935142009-01-27T00:18:00.000-08:002009-01-27T01:03:55.849-08:00New work in progress<p>Got a new painting in progress I'll post a detail on here with some old art work too!!

I was quite excited to see such an interesting find here in the US. If this phenomenon is actually studied at some point and proven to be a man made structure I'll move my mood-o-meter up from excited to awestruck. It would be more proof that the Native Americans were not as primitive (and in fact far more sophisticated) than many modern anthropologists supposed. I imagine this puts many academics proverbial testicles to the flame so it won't be looked into for quite a while. On another note the more the world learns about the more we can sympathize with them which makes us the USA look so much worse for being the only 1st world nation to commit wholesale genocide- and get away with it. At least we gave the world the Necco waffer. <br /><br />Some more art:Cacologripherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00754178748933776272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8765809468557922428.post-38745921192691010342008-12-20T08:17:00.000-08:002008-12-20T08:31:06.394-08:00Found an old one<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGYkxAIHU-MRgstM-X-vfWIzLaodzqVI5t5Vchr1oCHpoehiibmAJV8GklNZ5FQILF5IkG8wdXzp_-1Xmva5Mx_9M0uS0zhUp7BjKJqgZeuJQtNHR_8syi0u1iwdpD5iX6ab3y_W9TJUlk/s1600-h/Crashed+ship+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGYkxAIHU-MRgstM-X-vfWIzLaodzqVI5t5Vchr1oCHpoehiibmAJV8GklNZ5FQILF5IkG8wdXzp_-1Xmva5Mx_9M0uS0zhUp7BjKJqgZeuJQtNHR_8syi0u1iwdpD5iX6ab3y_W9TJUlk/s400/Crashed+ship+copy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281910237713202610" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9pUblHfdSPj2mluO3j8gaNVsRplUXyYI7IstvjGiK9-s_pLrjRrRiq8KjrOBbDeNvYEQGJqoHvZOZYB1fMgYOzwqZ0n-cInShHoquXjlNjIh1kl4-v0xAn3FvbkKV4u8NQsFcJlBuehop/s1600-h/Sadeek.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 278px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9pUblHfdSPj2mluO3j8gaNVsRplUXyYI7IstvjGiK9-s_pLrjRrRiq8KjrOBbDeNvYEQGJqoHvZOZYB1fMgYOzwqZ0n-cInShHoquXjlNjIh1kl4-v0xAn3FvbkKV4u8NQsFcJlBuehop/s400/Sadeek.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281908578783237762" /></a><br /> Runnen through my old images found a cool character concept: Far flung in the future Sideek, assassin for a secret society based on Titan. Her and her AI master Radloft are tasked with hunting down and returning a rhoge AI program embedded in the protaganists brain. This was a comic I was working on long time ago and other things got in the way. I should probably start doing a little more of it agian. Oh yeah, thats a Vibro Katana she's holding. Perhaps as geeky as a mono Katana....(for those unversed in Cyberpunk esoteria mono=honed to an egde of a single molocule. Similar to obsidian an igneous rock usally found..... I'm rambaling agian.) The one above Sideek is another one for my pleasure: SPACE BATTLE, is what I's calls it.

Think I'll see them since I need a little extra money ended up being curious about what Wizards were doing now a days. They have one incredible site, beautiful work, free webcomic and really kick-ass if slightly archtypeal characters. Visual though...astonishing. This being their "PlanesWalker" idea in some shattered plane of existence in some remote corner of the astral void I suppose. Got to see some more of Aleksi Briclot's my favorite artist of all time, he frick'en stellar. His work gets better every time I see it. Recently saw some work of his.. looked like he was influenced a little by Scott M. Fisher or Jon Foster. One of'em. Foster and Fisher both have this knack to weave super strong or super bright elements into there compositions dam hard thing to do and not readily notice it. Its like all these rules of aesthetics and structure are all so apparent in other artists works but these 2 guys lay it down and hide it so everything fits together like a masterwork violin. "Rule bending" is what I call it. These guys are pros at it. I try to recreate it in my own work with limited success. Any way my point was Aleksi's work seems to have been leaning in that direction recently. Kudos to him he's a friggen bad ass when it comes to visualization wish he'd hire somebody to update his website though he never seems to get around to it himself.

I Don't know what it is about Blogger -ever since I had an infuriating time making a blog for an art class in college- this website has shat all over my flaccid attempts at blogging . Anyway, I hope to make a meaningful blog this time with Glorious and Unparalleled art to attract employers from the world over<span style="font-size:78%;">( even in the midst of a world wide economic meltdown )</span> So I dedicate this blog to dreams that always seem with in scraping distance and the jewels buried in history like bloodstones Forgotten under so much sod and debris. I now christene this Blog Lapsarian Desero on it's maiden after all the children god forgot. My, my what an emo-fuck I am. </p><p>(If you can't tell I'm a sucker for Mellow Drama, heh, such a sucker!) </p>Cacologripherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00754178748933776272noreply@blogger.com0
