Hey DAT...was wondering if you had any interest in the work of HR Giger. He designed the original alien. Your drawings remind me of his work. Here's a few but if you like it its easy enough to find more.




Gigers work translates nicely into body art. Your work also has the same quality. Do you have any interest in body art?
Anyways, just passing through and wanted to share these with you. :)

Thanks Screwie Louie:bigjoint:
I got a new brush pen so tried it out on this one . It's ok , the best part is the fine tip and neat brush strokes you can get with it but it smeared into the color. I still prefer graphite pencil betterbongsmiliethe sensuality and softness of graphite i loveView attachment 3836489

There is something alluring about woodclinched pencils that other instruments, try as they might, just can't capture. To me at least. But I am borderline obsessed with pencils, and even though my infatuation started with pencils as a writing instrument, my sheer love of pencils is what has driven my recent delving into art. Do you have a favorite pencil or pencils? I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that if you prefer soft, sensual graphite that your favorite (if you have one) is probably Japanese, maybe a Tombow or Mitsu-Bishi, at, lets say, a 2B grade?

this is the new Chucky doll , totally creepy. the stupid fucks at my local Spencers had it stored so high up on a shelf that she had to get out a 14 foot ladder to get it down! I never would have known it was even there. Then she had the audacity to tell me that when they close shop it starts to talk! what kind of idiot did she think i was! nice sales pitch, try it on someone else BITCH!

Both awesome pencils! (And a very VERY awesome piece of art! It's so cool to see the progress on your pieces!) Check out these old 1930's Staedtlers I picked up a little while ago, they are pretty unique. It gives me a little kick to know how much my using them would probably piss off the people they were originally intended for.

IMG_1171.JPG Wow! 1930's pencils!! ha, that's crazy!! natzi pencils?!?
I enjoy seeing progress work. It's fascinating to me to see the moves and decisions that go into making art. I was lucky to see a fabulous Picasso show in Seattle several years ago and displayed was a series of photos of the progress working of his masterpiece Guernica, quite fascinating indeed!
Creating art is a bit of a masochist challenge for me. I struggle quite a bit , erase a lot of hours of work and rework rework but the moments when new discoveries are made and when the piece comes together are well worth the effort! Happy Thanksgiving , thanks for showing me your pencils!!

Those are siiick Mo.my Prismacolor color pencils frustrate me because they can't take the pressure of my touch. And I have to accept the non opaque look.
I went to the art store today and picked up my fav eraser and someTombow drawing pencils, a mono eraser pen for small areas. I tested at a bunch of illustration lead only pencils but they just didn't feel right not having the cone shape.

Focusing on this one for a few days, it's getting crazy fun getting back into knot work,, oh yeah!

I love to draw with pencil/graphite. Charcoal is great too. then u can go back with some white pencil highlights.
I like to use pencil for portraits. Oh...a tip for using pencils...I'm sure u already know but always sharpen your pencils with a knife not a pencil sharpener. something about the quality of line u get from a knife sharpened pencil. Its just better. Youtube has vids on it

Haha! Dannyboy , I watched a couple vids on pencil sharpening and found this hysterical video, the sand paper part was startling. Lol
Yeah I need to get a knife to sharpen them.
I used to work with charcoal a lot, it would be fun to get back into . Have you ever used this stuff? It looks pretty interesting.
