A Catalog of My Art
A quick pencil sketch I did a year past or so one chilly morning. The summer sun is a morning sacrament to me. Had to boost contrast and brightness with GIMP so as it can be seen easily. What more is there to life than health, happiness, and friends, even if they are in my head, they be pretty things all.
This is a wooden bangle bracelet I carved back in the late 1980s from a plank of black walnut wood. The pattern was traced onto the plank, then sawn out and carved with Sureform rasps and sanded smooth. Clear nitrocellulose Deft finish. Small hole in apex for mounting a charm.
Charcoal pencil on watercolor paper, fixed with Krylon clear coat. This werewolf warlock is havin’ all kindsa fun casting some kinda spell, like magickal creatures of the imagination are wont to do.
Yeah, I look like a fukkin’ bum too, growin’ a beard.
Dark green nephrite jade, known as Imperial Jade before the importation of Burmese jadeite began. Carved with diamond-studded rotary tools underwater. Dropped, shattered into 2 pieces, repaired with Elmer’s Glue, never get wet.
Nephrite jade is thought to benefit the kidneys, and was considered the stone of wealth and great good fortune. I like it, even though it is damaged, like me.
Yeah, this took ten minutes to pour and drain, then weeks to dry, leaving a fucking mess everywhere. It’s much prettier than even this GIMP could make of it.
I feel like preaching in the streets today, it’s Woden’s Day. I already caused enough trouble.
My standard issue Tai Chi Sword. It is mine, forever, and none shall possess this living entity.
Pencil on drawing paper imaginary butterfly and an outline done from life of my dead cat Cloudy, who appeared yowling in pain one day cowering from me and every living thing with a perfectly square patch of skin cut from her right cheek, which I reported to the police when they came to drag me away for being insane, who told me it musta been a raccoon.
Alibaba pajama model girl from China. Pretty little model, on drawing paper, dated. Image processed with GIMP.
Pencil sketch from an old sketchbook. The pretty little kid is kinda just floating there in midair. Everyone knows children have magical powers. People are great subjects for art, of all ages.
Pencil portrait of my character from the online Multi-User Dungeon Materia Magica. I just this last week managed to have him dragged out of the oblivion of character deletion back to his former life as a serial killer preying upon the good citizens of Alyria for their paltry pocket change. This evil SOB used to whip so much sense into the poor clergy with his low-level black bullwhip that the gods and goddesses, in their wisdom, totally ganked this skill from any character on his career path. A Barbarian-Ranger-Rogue-Druid at level 220 with over 3600 hours played and 106,000+ kills. He’s a 97 year old maddog now trying to lead a better life. We all know what that means for a serial killer like Skleetus.
