Some old art I finally got around to uploading



The Bobcat was taken from a picture I found in a magazine back in Highschool, sheesh that was a while ago. The background was from my imagination.



I always loved lighthouses and when I got the opportunity to do this as my final art grade in my Senior year in high school, I jumped at the chance. It took me over a month and a half to finish this as it was also done in stipple. I figured I placed close to a million dots out of a 0.5mm pen tip onto this picture. It did earn me an A+ on my Final. I still remember my Art teacher's name too, Bobbi Pederson.



Another favorite of mine, and the Space Shuttle was still new and unsullied when I made this one. The Challenger accident was still a few years away. I always wanted to do another with the faces of the seven Astronauts that died showing faintly in the sky, but it was overdone by too many people in too many types of media, so I never did it.

I'll have some more artwork to display in the near future. Now that I have my Wacom tablet, I plan on taking some of my old pencil drawings and redoing them in color and more realistic (I hope). I'm still learning all that I can do with it yet.
