This is the second movie poster I made. It took a lot of color balancing. This was a fun poster to make. I can't help myself from imagining the movie and damn would it be a good movie.

Now Playing

This is a movie poster I made. I think that its a little Stenberg-ish in the way that it uses only a few colors, is a little comic book looking, and kind of doesn't make sense. I think it turned out pretty well.

X Marks The Spot

This is my letter art with the letter x. It may look simple but I had to work with a lot of layers to make this.

Swarm of Bs

Here is one of the type images I made. I wanted to use Halloween-ish colors since its coming up. I put in some shadows which gave the image some depth. The use of shadow also helped me to multiply the amount of Bs in the image.

Self Medication

Here is the second collage I did. I took the head and hand of a sad woman and put it on the body of a guy drinking a beer. I also copied the cuff from the left side of the beer pic and edited it to look like it fit in on the right. Now she can try to forget about her worries.

Got Milk?

Here is one of my collages, well I think it counts as a collage. I didn't do much to the original. All I did was add a milk mustache and some text to make it look like an old "got milk" add.

Spere of Light

These are some finalized versions of my sketch the I worked over with photoshop. I don't know which one I like the best. The black and white one is the original. Then I messed with color balance in the second and third image. I also inverted the third one and I think it turned out pretty well. I might have to set one of these as my desktop background.

Playing with Light: Sketch

Here is just a simple sketch I made cause I wanted to play with light. I wanted to use high contrast and shadows. I think I'll try to work out something like this in photoshop.

Collage

List of Objects:
Girl
Bunch of crazy swirly things
Sky
Ladder?

My eyes kind of get lost looking at this picture. I think my eyes start at the face. Next, (maybe just cause I'm a guy) my eyes go towards the opening in the shirt. After that the right hand and finally the left shoulder. I didn't even really notice the background until I listed it.

This is a really interest use of collage. I don't know if its a sculpture or just photo manipulated. I don't even know who the artist is or what its called. I was just browsing the internet and this photo linked back to metapedia.com.

This Is Halloween

List of Objects:

Jack Skellington
Moon
Spiral Hill
Fence
Pumpkins
Grave Markers
Text

This is a very dark image mostly colored with a dark purple and black contrasted with some bright yellow and orange. Your eye is first caught by the giant bright yellow moon in the background which is encompassing Jack. From there your eyes wander down the hill to the text that is also a bright yellow, reading "The Nightmare Before Christmas." Finally your eyes fallow the pumpkin patch around the spiral hill, completing the journey back at the moon.

With my favorite holiday coming up, I couldn't help but putting the poster from my favorite holiday movie up on my blog. I love how Tim Burton uses dark disturbing artwork to convey uplifting and meaningful messages. He's just so silly. Usually scary is just scary, but Tim Burton twist that emotion and makes it fun.

My Girl

This is a sketch of my girl that I made with pencil. I'm not really that good at drawing faces but I think it turned out all right. I didn't ask her her opinion on it yet... I might be asking for trouble posting this on the internet.

Holy Combat

List of objects:
Jesus
Gun
Knife
Soldier w/Gun
Banshee(Aircraft) x2
Warthog(Truck)
Explosion
Part of the Sistine Chapel Ceiling (God)
Trees
Mountains
Light
Lasers
Various Words


The dominant element is Jesus. Next you would notice the words "Halo Holy Combat." By shear contrast to that and just the obscenity of the whole thing, the next thing that would be noticed are the words directly beneath that (because your curious). Next you would start to notice everything in the background that is just cluttered around. The last thing to be noticed would be the part of the Sistine Chapel ceiling depicting God due to the low opacity.

I personally think that this image is quite funny. I know there are probably a lot of people who wouldn't and I seriously debated putting this picture up. Being a gamer, I personally think Halo is by far one of the best games out there. I wouldn't be surprised if someone made a religion out of it. Yay, first amendment!

Halo is a pretty well known game and when it first came out I thought it was going to be something religious. Its funny that the artist actually put the two together. There are some hidden religious themes in the real Halo game but not straight up mentioning Jesus. For example, in the Halo story some aliens believe their suppose to protect some holy relic but Earths military finds it and wants it. Kinda like whats happening in the middle east....

Anyways, I got this picture off the dogblog and they were talking about a new Halo game. Not quite sure who the artist is but they do demonstrate their ability to use collage, even though their topic choice is a bit dicey.
