The Lady and her Engineer

My Advanced Drawing Final image. I didn't have time to color it. I will be honest. D= It needs some work but I loves it as is so far. These are two characters from my next comic project. I have too many comic ideas! I have to still work on their storyline and such. But I want this comic to deal with ideas of  artificial personhood, 'nontraditional' lifestyles and relationships, atypical relationships... they're supposedly lesbians. You know. I will go in more depth when I actually flesh out the story more and get it... actually started.

I really like 1700s fashion, rococo stuff, so the clothing, styles, and everything will be neo-rococo styled. Because what's better than cyberpunk neo-rococo???
(Nothiiing that's what. Hahahah. JK)

You might have seen these two, Geneva (da one with the ears) and Ursula (da one with the purple hair) before, I've posted them to me blog before.

The Dancing Pair

The Dancing Pair, 18"x24", October 2013.
Acrylic on canvas, pencil, oil pastels.

I wanted to make humanoid shapes, that were both connected and clearly separate.
As the viewer steps back from the canvas, the humanoid figures merge into one strange creature. As the viewer steps towards the canvas,

These creatures are characters I have called 'familiars and strangers'. They are exact mirrors of ourselves, yet abstracted versions of ourselves. I want the viewer to connect with these creatures somehow.

It hangs in the Upstate Artists Guild gallery in Albany, NY, for the month of November. Its price is $225.

Black Lolita WIP image2

HAH! I thought this image looked weird!

Her arms are entirely too short! I was wondering forever why it looked weird. Maybe when I was drawing it I was trying to do foreshortening and failed.

Ah well.

I will try and fix it. But, I"m trying to hurry up and color or finish my old drawings and paintings so I can start a new chapter in my art style.


Also, I was thinking of moving to tumblr....
