Or, How It Started How It's Going, 24 Years of Drawing Sephiroth And I guess I'm counting 2020 as being over given my math up there. ^o^; I'd change it here too if I could edit my tweet about it. Things I realized putting this collage together: I apparently became a Sephiroth fan before playing …
If this isn't done now, it's not gonna be. XD As with the preview post before this, the images contained here might be slightly NSFW, assuming your workplace wouldn't be too keen on you looking at muscular men only slightly less scantily clad than He-man. So don't scroll any further, O ye people at work! …
I've been working on this on and off for a whole week. Mostly off. I couldn't quite get into a groove. But then tonight, when I should be making my usual attempt to flip back to a daytime schedule before having to go back to work, I stayed up all night, coloring for six hours …
¡Spoiler Warning for the original Final Fantasy VII and Remake! To avoid writing spoilerific things right at the top, let me start with a slight tangent. When I was in elementary school, I asked my mother to buy me a three-book set of How to Draw books from the Scholastic catalog. While I don't remember …
I became interested in Arabic geometry and zilij around the same time that the "Moroccan trellis" type of quatrefoil pattern started showing up everywhere. I've got a camera case, computer screen wipes box, and even a kitty litter mat with variations of this pattern on them. I'm both delighted by the availability of this design, …
With this year being the 20th anniversary of Final Fantasy VII, I used one of my projects in printmaking last spring to pay homage to Mr. Lash Blast by Covergirl Jenova. The assignment was drypoint etching. We had to work the plate gradually, pulling prints as we went. I didn't really make good use of …
It's time to slowly reveal the products of this spring's adventures in printmaking. Woo! I'd shown my warm-up linocut letterforms before, but I hadn't finished the J at that point. When I did, I hand-printed these letters again to practice registration (aligning the paper to the plate properly) because I figured that would be a …
In late November, with only two of four sculpture projects completed, I struggled to make a semi-autobiographical portrait bust in clay. I've gotten better at thinking in three dimensions, and despite being quite familiar with my own face, this was quite the toughie until I rolled out a slab of clay and literally draped it …
When I first introduced my project to make an unusual bookshelf, I mentioned that it ultimately was to go in a particular corner of my room. While I've already unveiled the finished product in the post about my program's exhibit this past June, I wanted to show what it looks like in situ. I also …
Over twenty years ago, Sailor Moon began airing on TV in the US. I was curious about the show for two reasons. 1.
