Take two...action

No clouds in my stones.... sorry little hova line playing off my title. Anyway. So I found this breath taking Japanese drawing of koi fish and I have had it as a rotating background piece on my mac for.......idk...2 years or so. Well I looked at it the other day and was like... that is perfect for an inkblot. So i took the main idea and redid it into a inkblot. This took a little bit of time and planning b.c. even though it is not an original fish drawing... I wanted to make it an original piece.





So I made five fish for the 5 years my wife and I have been dating and positioned them like an S for her first name.





Here it is:

WOW... definitely my favorite. I really put a lot into this one. Well enjoy.

Well I knocked this one out pretty quick. I realized I don't have to put much detail into these b.c. I am going to black out and cover most of it. I don't know if I really like this one however, but I don't know where to go from here. It is my least favorite of the three so far, but I feel the more I do, the more I will realize what I don't like and redo the early ones again. I am already in the process of redo the goldfish one.





Anyway, here it is:


As you can see... I hope... it is a game cube controller. My little(est) brother is a video game FREAK! He is really good, beating games in hours times. I was going to do the Nintendo 64 controller b.c. it was created the year after he was born, but I decided to do the game cube b.c. that is when I realized he was REALLY REALLY good at video games. This time instead of free styling the ink blot, I looked up some inkblots and took elements of them and combined it with my own. We will see how this sits.

Other then this update, nothing really to report... just doing me.
