The Future

Concept #art I created yesterday. Beware of #demons offering a look into the #future and all that rot. The new thing for me was getting a #rainbow to appear exactly where I wanted it. I did it by creating a primitive of clear glass, then placing a multicolor fx injector inside of it. Art is about making use of the tools you have 🙂 #barren #apocalyptic #fallenangel #whatsyourangle #digitalart #digitalartist #new

Parity Lost

A surreal painting titled "Parity Lost" features a blue-skinned figure with dark wings kneeling and gazing into a large vessel. A woman with curly hair peers out from the vessel, swathed in pink fabric and surrounded by trailing vines. Abstract pink clouds form the ethereal background.

“Everyone knew the war would one day end. It had raged for eons since Lucifer decided he would rather own his house than pay rent. The sides of light and darkness had fought themselves to a standstill. “If only God’s pets could see the ethereal ruin that lay in between their Starbucks and obsession with the Kardashians,” most angels mused to themselves as the conflict went on.   

What no one expected, was for the war to end today. No one foresaw that the strongest of the Angels would exercise her free will, just as Lucifer had at the beginning of time. She had grown weary of the routine, the constant pressure of vigilance, of maintaining the balance, and had decided to do something about it. She would become what God loved most – human.
As her wings relented under the blade, tremors shook the ethereal, summoning Lucifer to her side. He loved her, this angel, his greatest threat. He had held her in greater esteem than those braggarts Michael and Gabriel. She, who had fought him to an aeons-long standstill, had earned his respect, and worse, corrupted the purity of his hate with love, however selfish.

She had chosen to become mortal, a contemptible, imperfect, creature that had what all angels desired. Now, the balance had shifted. He had loathed the favorites of God, he had achieved self-actualization through his torment of them – and now she was one of them! Could he go on destroying them? His heart sank at the only conclusion he could reach. The war was over.”

Monarch Sangria

A vibrant painting showcases a close-up of several monarch butterflies with their characteristic orange wings, black veins, and white spots. The butterflies overlap, creating a striking and dynamic composition against a reddish-brown background reminiscent of Monarch Sangria.

It’s not my worst, there’s a couple I haven’t shown anyone. Still, I’m putting this one aside. I can’t think of how I can make it work, so I’m moving on.  On the positive side, I have done something for March; which has not been the greatest month for me.

About it? It started as a concept called Fruit Fly.  I was going to do oranges with gossamer wings – don’t ask, sometimes I don’t know where my ideas come from.  I eventually abandoned that, and went with Butterflies, since it’s Spring.  The title evolved from the original fruit (sliced oranges), the wine-like background, and the beverage I was drinking at the time.

The Path and the Process

I suppose I should talk a little bit about my process.  Every artist goes about her or his projects in a different way.  Most will sketch whatever comes to mind and come back to it later.  For me, I don’t use sketch books.  My ideas usually hit me either when I’m out getting some exercise … Read more
