Here's my interpretation of Hellboy via Picasso.. If you really, really like this you can buy a nice big professional print of it over at http://www.society6.com/thisishorrorbiz along with another print... and lots more lovely art thingies from me to follow!
For me, this weeks word (which was 'Welcome') could only have been represented by 1 image... Guns & Feckin Roses!!.. Really digging my entry too (if I say so myself) .. it's tipping it's big top hat in the direction of the 'Naughty Naughty Pets' artwork, which suits me fine! Slash was done in about 4 minutes... which is wicked!
Here's a Ninja I posted over on the Art Jumble blog last week! Really pleased with this too, I like the shapes and angles.. it's jarring but still quite graceful looking!
Here's some silly doodles I did last night.. even though I'm getting bogged down with Christmas cards and Calendars in work I'm still looking forward to the Holiday season!
Golden wasn't too bad a word this week.. I was toying with producing a Sinbad/Golden Flees related image and then plumped for a crappy old Hammer film 'The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires'. I wanted to try my hand at a Mike Mignola inspired piece using lots of black and some muted colours.. it looks okay, except that in retrospect the pose (and hands) make him look more like a malformed Thunderbirds puppet... arse!
Interesting word this week.. I was trying to run with an idea that involved Medusa.. but I thought that was a bit obvious.. nudie women and all that.. so I did a sketch of one of the 'Easter Island' heads.. and I really liked it!.. then I thought, what if the heads weren't 'just' heads.. but they had giant robot bodies too.. So that was my entry for Statue sorted!
...don't know if you're interested in seeing sketch work?... but you're stuck with it! MMMWWWAAAHHHHHHAAAAA HAAAAAAA HHHAAAAA..... hhhhaaaaaaa!
Here's some more sketchbook pages..
More TV doodling.. I watched Zack Snyder's remake of 'Dawn of the Dead' the other night (possibly for the first time all the way through) and really enjoyed it (apart from the bit with the dog in.. don't like animals in films in case something bad happens to them!) Anyhoo.. I did the zombie sketch on the left to represent the boyfriend from the beginning of the movie.
YAY... A finished piece for War of Words!! Hurrah!
Summat I doodled the other night whilst in the middle of a marathon 'Most Haunted' session.
