Here’s a photo shoot of a superhero / supervillain (she’s young still) that I made up yesterday. Originally, I was going for maybe a future daughter of the Joker and Harley Quinn, but then there’s all that legal stuff, so I thought maybe a super-mutant, like the X-men, but then there’s all that legal stuff. … Read more

Flashback 1984

by

This is both fan art and a statement. It started as a momento of what I have always thought the perfect woman was, the Goth Girl, which goes back to high school. Hint, it was the Nerds who were totally interested in you, not that it mattered. There’s a girl, Desiree was her name, that I was infatuated with in high school, but was too afraid to talk to her. She disappeared after graduation. I have no idea weather she still walks the planet. so this is kind of a tribute to her.

It’s also a tribute to one of my favorite movies. Can you guess? Artax? Atreyu? The bog? Yup, it’s the Neverending Story, or Die Unendliche Geschichte, which is the book that is the origin of the movie. There may be some copyright stuff here but fanart should be covered by fair use.

Winston and Julia

It’s probably best to view this on something other than a small screen, it looks fine in my PC but not on my phone. Drawn from a re-reading of 1984 by Orwell. This represents a sort of sage-burning of my mind after exposure to it. Winston Smith and Julia (Dixon) are the characters whose tragic coupling leads to irrevocable consequences. In the book, the Ministry of love is a place where it’s always light, but they are really in the dark if one interprets it into Newspeak. They were separated in the book during their time being tortured… err, re-educated, err, destroyed, but I put them together in a fit of artistic license. The blinds style lighting represents the barcoded nature of the IngSoc society in which they live and die, a sort of Schrödinger’s cat nod to their current predicament (being sent to Room 101). Plus, it appears a barcode unless one looks deeper. Julia cracked early in the book, Winston took a bit longer, so I have him more emaciated of the two.
