Also: Love the colors, did you do this on the computer?

It was done on the computer in photoshop. I woke up after a heavy session & dreamt pretty much that exact scene. I'm no picasso, but you don't have to be with digital art, because it just 'happens'.
On the other hand, give me a pencil & some paper & i'll draw you a stick man
Some more of my random stuff. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v405/hintz/seaeye.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...work/test5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...work/test3.jpg
Most of the stuff I do is referred to as 'test' because I can never name them.... I'm not very creative in that sense  |

| | I really loved all of your linked art. I think I see why you have trouble naming them. The sea eye is appropriate because the shape of an eye is formed. But the following links were more 'abstract' in nature. When I viewed them they brought actions and sound effects to my mind. (I'm weird)
While it has great impact, and is aesthetically pleasing, it doesn't really present concepts that we can easily name.
I love your use of color and shape. To me, it seems that you layer the associations we have for certain colors with how you use them in the painting.
For example, in the second link, the cooler colors are soft, with the appearance of dissolving or floating in water. Whereas the warmer colors are busy, as if they are a fish under the water swimming furiously.
Then, in the last link, your colors are bright and bold, which is complemented by an equally bold white circle floating in the obscure blackness.

To this date (even though it is some years old now) it is my absolute favorite piece of work I've done. I don't know why, its quite strange you mentioned 'fish', but every time I look at it I think 'pond' & 'coi'
The last link I accepted as a subconscious link to Pink Floyd, even though it wasn't intended. There's never a plan with what I do, I just delve in & create. But it doesn't always come out looking good.... I've deleted so much stuff half way through because I just wasn't feeling it anymore & felt as though it would be pointless to continue working on something I had no connection with.
I'll upload some of my more recent stuff tomorrow (its 3:30am here now so a bit late  ).
