Monster Madness

I finished some Faltars for a challenge between me and a friend.   A Faltar is a made up word, which signifies a fun altar memorializing a weird story or fun memory.   I am hoping to put some of the Faltars  in the spring art walk for Helena.    Here are two that I finished this week.  These are inspired by the classic B-Horror film zaniness.

I was looking for a way to incorporate my illustration into some fun pieces.  

First day of a whole new thing

I have been doing illustration for a while.  I thought I would turn some of them into paper dolls.

Here are some sketches of some of them.

                                "Hi" from Raising Arizona and "Jack" from The Shining.

A kind of Frankenstein

A little Inspiration for a cold and dreary day

Finally, a new day to post something....anything.

Today, it is a very cold and snowy day.  Perfect for sitting in front of the computer and visiting some cool sites (I am not talking about this one.  It lacks, I know.  I'm working on it!).


Speaking of cool sites, I just was on Lori Nix's site.  She creates scenes right out of a surreal fantasy!  She has the ability to make you feel like a silent witness to some sort of mystery.

 I love her artwork!  You can see her site here http://www.lorinix.net/


Another artist who takes you on a journey of sorts is Jason deCaires Taylor.

http://www.underwatersculpture.com/  His artwork is so unique.  I love how he incorporates nature.


Banksy is graffiti artist, who is clever and radical.  He adds a little humor to his statement.  I feel a little adventurous after looking at his art.

You can check out his site here http://www.banksy.co.uk/

Now that I feel inspired, I should probably do some artwork myself.
