Title: An art thread of pink and glittery proportions - Updated: Mixtape Magic!
Post by: Miniature Sheep on December 22, 2016, 07:26:07 AM

So it's been ages since I last posted any art on here, and I figure it's high time I estabished a good old fashioned art thread, which ought to hopefully encourage me to post art more regularly! (New Year's Resolution: Organisation!) To start things off, here's a sift through some of the Arena-friendly stuff from 2016!

First of all is something I actually started in 2013 and finished at the start of the year - feels good to finally have it done. :D

And the rest are under a spoiler because there's quite a few images...

Spoiler

A couple of canvas patches - still getting the hang of fabric painting. Apparently someone liked the first one enough to give it a home so it's living in Australia now! :D

A dream garden, possibly a bit overly inspired by Tara MacPherson.

A spooky mixtape - this one was recorded on a gorgeous transparent violet tape; haven't managed to find any more of those since but I live in hope! The first side is fun and lively, the second side is a mixture of more moody and laid-back vibes.

And another spooky mixtape with a mixture of mysterious and grouchy vibes throughout.

A very tropical bay - the concept of this is going to worked into an inlay card for a beachy mixtape when I get round to recording it!

A diary doodle about my cat getting in touch with her inner Mighty Feline Warrior with a fluffy pink catnip mouse (it was simultaneously hilarious and adorable)

A protesting piñata, inspired by the cover of a Better Than Ezra single (I love me some 90s jams!)

A bit of collage, asking the truly important questions in life.

Oooh, you have a really great style! I love the amount of detail in these and the way you use colors is at the same time well balanced and effective.

I love your style!! Especially the cats, they looks really good. Your style almost looks... Graffiti-ish? Thats definitely a complement ;)

Awesome pieces, I love the surrealist elements in your art! Great linework too. I especially like the kitty pic and the tropical bay one. ^.^

!!!
Hold on, I'll go rustle up a defibrillator! XD But seriously, thank you very much!
I figure it is actually high time I updated this thing so here's some recent stuff! (Under a spoiler due to the volume of images)

Spoiler

First of all is this puppet of my mascot; he's an interdimensional crow monster! Unfortunately I couldn't get any footage of him in action at the moment because fiddling with the camera and working the puppet is too awkward.

And some concept art for a sort-of comic project, providing information from a paralell universe contained within a space-faring shed.

And part of the first issue! I can't post the whole thing because there's some completely unnecessary swearing in there (I have a very immature sense of humour to say the least.) :P

And finally, a doodle pertaining to The Boats of the Glen Carrig; the Bo'sun totally stole the show - I'm pretty sure he actually played a bigger role in the story than the narrator (I was really amused by that for some reason.)

Only a little update this time because I can't give too much away - here are a few very sneaky previews of a comic in progress, complete with a mighty donkey gargoyle!

I finally got back on the mixtape wagon - this one's got a laid-back summery vibe going on (and a completely illegible track list!) :P
