Rendering of Salomé (Post-Dance):And here is "Bad Salomé". To see what the costume actually looked like, click here for a nicely lit picture, or here for a more "moody" picture. |
|
The Window Crucifix: By His Stripes, we are redeemed! |
|
The Face of Christ: For by Your Death and Resurrection, You have redeemed the world. |
|
The Crucifix of Love: No nails kept Him on the cross, but His Love for us. |
|
Safe in His Heart: Oh, Sacred Heart of Jesus, keep me ever safe in Thee! |
|
The Child Jesus: My little Guest. *sigh* |
|
Foreshadowing: He was born that He might die for us; her heart was pierced by a sword. |
|
Mary and the Baby Jesus: He was a man, in all respects but sin. |
|
He is Enthroned Forever: He is seated at the Right Hand of the Father, and His Kingdom shall have no end! |
|
Mary, Hope of Christians: Oh, Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee! |
|
Two Marys: The Penitent Magdalene, and the Virgin Mary - both redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb. |
|
Two Hearts: The Heart of Love verses the Heart of Sin; come, pick up your cross, for His yolk is easy, and His burthen light. |
|
Foolishness (Sepia): This was originally executed in pencil, sometime during Calculus class, on the back of a handout. The sepia wash was added digitally. Otherwise, the title pretty much says it all. |
|
Daimoq Abduction: This was also done in Calculus Class, and is one of the better examples of my trademark Notebook Artistry. I'm mainly happy with the movement of the line with this preliminary sketch, despite the fact that the content doesn't look too cheerful. I'm not quite sure what the Daimoq (that winged bald guy) are quite yet, except that there's a rum named after them, and they're generally looked upon disfavourably. Lest you should think that I've some sort of evil agenda, let me clarify that it's just easier for me to draw batwings than feathers! If you look up at the last Catholic & Christian picture, and you'll see my failed attempts at the latter.

Sidhe Pink: Also known as Perturbed in Pink, I drew this when I had a box of crayons handy and a foul mood. Ah, for the cathartic arts! |
|
Unicorn Teal: One of the hallmarks of Fantasy drawing, I've come to discover, is mixing and matching parts (i.e., wings, horns, etc.) on various creatures. Well, here's my attempt at a Unicorn Lady; and further, an attempt to play with colour. The whole is executed in pencil and crayon. |
|
Unicorn Red: Another pic incorporating a bunch of different elements and playing with colour. Don't ask me what it all means - it doesn't mean anything as far as I'm concerned, it just looks neat. If anything, it's probably a companion piece to the illustration (see below) that I did for "Cimmerian Ocellus." |
|
Ifan Sees Dhelia: This is a preliminary representation for one of my High Fantasy stories about the love between Ifan, called the Mute, and Dhelia ni Cynwydd. To see a much better version of what Ifan looks like, see below. |
|
Ifan the Mute: A better draft of Ifan (with Dhelia in the corner). |
|
Vyjteg: Pronounced VHEY-tg, the lady in this picture is a member of that warrior clan - but we caught her in a moment of reflection. *grin* |
|
A Bird May Love a Fish: But where would they live? Or, for that matter, where would their children live? |
