Art Du Jour

Red

This is a piece that really symbolizes a lot to me.

It was done as one of many expressions of pain,
in relevance to a dieing relationship. 

I wanted to post it and see how it makes you guys feel.

I really would appreciate some critique,
if any of you feel up to it:)

It was done in 2009, sometime.

It is entitled "Red",
for some not-so-obvious reasons.

Drawn with Sharpies.
Black background is painted with Speed-ball ink.

Dorsal

This is one of two pieces I did on some very special paper. It was watercolor paper from a tablet that my grandfather used. I received his art supplies after his passing, and amongst his things was a tiny, post card sized tablet of multi-colored watercolor paper. I naturally wanted to soil these pages with ink. "Dorsal" was the second piece I drew, after "Fluke". My dear friend, Chris, is now the owner of this piece, as it was a favorite of his when we lived together. I wanted to post it, first, because this entire blog was his idea:) Let's see if he will chime in....
