new


Well, here is one thing that i have been working on so far. I went around the school to take some photos of different textures and patterns, after a few i went ahead and threw some of them together, messed around with them a lot, so far this is where I am at. I may just leave this one alone until i take some more photos then work back into it later. So in the meantime I will be starting up some others and just work on them all as i go.

more


here is reincarnation, and a haunting. In the meantime I am working more on the others, thank you for your input so far, it is a big help when i hit a spot and don't know what to do to improve it more. So it helps me to constantly work on each one, without hanging around one image for too long without any progress.

updates




i have updated the past images, based on the previous feedback. If there are still hints of improvement then I will do all that I can to apply those comments while i work on the last 2. I will post the other 2 as i go so in order to get as much feedback as possible in the time remaining.

o heck

here is a third image representing different views of death and what happens to us, such as the lake of fire, the place where naughty people skinny dip. This is a collaboration of images from around the yard, such as my chain link fence, shed, some chopped wood next to the shed, and a few others I'm sure. Just not sure about how I feel about finding hell in my back yard...maybe I'll search for heaven in the front.

the aftermath



so here are some images that I was working on, it started out as a side project for my own thoughts rather than working with existing thoughts that I don't feel a direct connection with, since they aren't mine, they are other philosophers. Well I've decided that I care more about my own thoughts and would like to keep it that way, even if they have been thought of before, I'm the one bringing them up to myself voluntarily, not forcing myself to interpret others. So these images are based on different views of the afterlife, not saying that I believe all of them, just that I am aware and think about them. I feel a much better connection with these, and also get more satisfaction out of them, disregarding what Mick Jagger says. Perhaps a new artist statement is in line...
here is another image, based on Locke's concept of an eye for an eye, the man with a fork is missing an eye, the man being held down is a collector, frankly i'm just hitting a constant wall, I don't see any change happening with what I'm doing, so I have been doing stuff on the side, and so far it is showing more development than this project. Posting of said images will occur in a matter of minutes.

time to move on



I have applied shadows and such to the image to help refine it a bit, I'm sure it still needs some work, especially the void on the right. No matter what though, I will be moving on to other images, the last thing I need is to sit on this one for another week and not worry about all the work I still have to do. So I am hoping to have the rest of the sketches for this series posted in my next blog post and just work on multiple ones at a time, I need something to help keep me going rather that taking time on just one.
