A Study in Spring

A Study in Spring. Started out a doodle, like most drawings. Here I wanted to draw a figure that was different than what I normally do, kind of embracing elements I (we, speaking for typical artists of my peer groups) tend to ignore or gloss over. Like bellies. People have bellies.

Blood Red

Keeping it loose tonight, sketching and brainstorming. Feeling pretty good. Life can be a real shitstorm, so we gotta take our breaks and our good vibes where we can get 'em.

Here's a Blood Red style doodle for ya. Blood Red, in case you didn't know, is one of the labels I slap on my pin-up style art. Back in the oughts I did a couple of pin-up books called Blood Red. Nobody noticed, and perhaps they are better left buried. I was really a bit nuts with the tits back then. Seriously.

Armor? Who the hell wears armor?

Viking (Old Art IX)

Now here's a real blast from the past. One of my favorite drawings from the mid-2000s. In case you didn't know, I have a penchant for drawing plump pin-up girls. Something about a fat girl* with a sword is just exciting to me.

*So... a few people have said that using the word "fat" is not good. I adamantly disagree. There should be no stigma against it. I realize that the popular culture does stigmatize it and they are clearly wrong and stupid and need to be adjusted. So fuck 'em. Fat, plump, or whatever you prefer ain't a bad thing. Go get bent if you think otherwise.
