So, this image is similiar I guess to the tattooed sleeve on my left arm; or so some think. Autumn leaves and autumn colours! I love nothing more!
This picture hangs on the wall of Mantra tattoo studio; originally I started to draw it up as tattoo flash yet it finnished life as a stand alone painting.
I have to say that it lacks the intricate detail that I love to endulge in, but that 'comic book' style detail doesn't suit a piece like this; originally intended as a potential tattoo for somebody.
None the less, I think this design is pretty cool; in that it's very true to the stuff I love to draw!
Kissed by a rose.
I love to draw roses! Though, rarely am I happy with them; when I am, I'll look at them a few months later and I'll hate them!
This rose, painted on canvas with acrylic was a Mothers day present.
Again, looking at it now, there are things I'm not happy with, things I'd change, things I could have done better!
However, over all, I'm pretty happy with it's turn out; I don't often paint with acrylics and when I do I like to paint kinda' sloppy and dirty and use aerosals for a 'graphic' effect.
All that really matters though, is that my Mum loves it! My Nan also, so guess I've gotta' paint another!

Rorschach
So this is Rorschach from the Watchmen graphic novel by Alan Moore, recently a massive movie!
Although this is obviously based on works that have come before and was influenced by other Watchmen imagery; I pretty much just let myself go and drew this up the way I love to draw!
I recently sold this image too; part of me wishes I kept hold of it! Though, I'm sure one day I'll draw up some Rorschach imagery again as I love the character! Watch this space.
This is a portrait I did of my beloved dog Jack! Now again, this isn't strictly a concise portrait; as portrait work isn't really my forte, so this is very much a portrait in my own style and I think you can tell.
I actually drew this up; not only because I love my dog, but because I love him so much I wanted to get a tattoo of him! This image is tattooed on my leg!
This is something I drew up a while ago, it isn't purely from my own imagination, it is based on a panel from the Captain Britain comic book, a recent series that was sadly cancelled; as I bloody loved it!
Anyway, this panel in the comic book where Brian (Captain Britain) is reunited with his 'Hearts Desire', his lost wife struck a bit of a chord with me, hence why I felt the need to draw it up like I have.
In the comic, Brian believes his reunion with his wife to be fake, a hallucination of what he really wants; he does not know that is is for real and turns his back on her!
