Night in the Forest of the Blue Gates

This one needs a scary new age soundtrack.

I really don't know where this piece came from.  It started as something completely different and turned into this strange dark forest very suddenly.  I'm still not sure what to make of it.  Such a strange vibe.  I know that the period that this came from was very intense and uncomfortable for me.

It feels like underneath.  Some contained underworld place that is difficult to escape.  I definitely don't want to get too close to those columns, they look hungry.

As well as the scary new age soundtrack, I also hear the hum of a dying fluorescent bulb here.  I suspect that light in the Forest of the Blue Gates flickers.  As soundtracks go - perhaps Steve Roach: Dynamic Stillness.

I apologize for how redundant all this is about to become,
but I want all these in the same place so they can be seen together.

Calendar Images 1

Here are some calendar images from a calendar I created for friends this past winter (04). Those that were not created completely in Photoshop were altered slightly due to the crappy nature of my digital camera. Hopefully they are still visually worthwhile.

This was originally the cover to a previous portfolio. I made several alterations and used it for the cover of the calendar. {completely created in Adobe Photoshop}.

This was inspired by the cover of Heaven or Las Vegas by the Cocteau Twins. {Completely created in Adobe Photoshop}.

This is a portion of my bathroom shower door with wonderful afternoon sunlight coming through. I took the image and manipulated it in Photoshop. {Digital photo manipulated with Adobe Photoshop}.

My bathroom light fixture manipulated and distorted a bit. This image was originally filled with lots of "floating bits" that my Digital camera randomly inserts. Luckily I was able to get them all out. {Digital photo manipulated in Adobe Photoshop}.

I am hesitant to reveal where I took this photo because of the pleasure I get from its ambiguity. The circle is like a Black Sun on some foggy horizon or a microscopic cell floating in solution. {Digital photo manipulated in Adobe Photoshop}.

The Ghost

I don't have many words for this one. It was difficult to draw. {Graphite, White Prismacolour on grey drawing paper}

Troll? Wight? Zombie? 30 Days of Night Vampire? You decide. {Graphite}
