Because this website needs pictures.

I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, and it's already been mentioned on this page that I am an artist. So I guess it's about time to show you my deviantART page, isn't it?

Alright, so this blog needs a few pictures, doesn't it? Alright. I'll show you some of the pictures that I'm proudest of. But only a few! You gotta check my website if you want to see more. I'd like to point out as well that drawing is my number one artistic medium, but I do have different pieces that I'm very proud of, so I think I'll show you a bit of everything. (Well not EVERYTHING, but you know...)



This one's called Look at me, and it's one three photo-manips I did of the same eye. It is also one of my personal favourites. I don't normally do photo-manipulations, but I'm just sooo happy with this. It also got a lot of positive feedback.



Special is a photograph I took through the window of a store in Portobello, England when I went there a couple of years ago. I played with it a little in Photoshop Elements, and this was probably my first sucessful attempt at an almost black-and-white picture (or whatever this genre is called; I can't really be bothered to look it up). This is also an obvious Andy Warhol tribute.



iDucks is a part of a sort of craze that consumed me at one point, where almost everything I did was an iPod ad spoof. You wouldn't guess, but this sort of became my favourite out of the bunch. The others were all specific characters, but this is so simple. I think it sort of captures the spirit of the original.



Alright, so here's a recent one I did. It's called Yes I can, and apparently NO ONE GETS THIS JOKE. So I'm going to explain it. It's friggin' M.C. Hammer, okay? The one that sang U Can't Touch this? And that's me, touching him. Saying "What are you gonna do?" Because I totally can touch him. Because, like, what would he do? M.C. Hammer-slide all over me? (What does that even mean?) GET IT?



I must stress that in no way do I see myself as a photographer, but this picture, In the middle of summer, is somehow very close to my heart. It's my uncle's house, and used to belong to my grandmother on my mothers' side (before she died). My mom grew up in this house, and we've spent a lot of time there ever since I was tiny. Something about the contrast between the green leaves and the yellow house, and how the blue shows through the branches just feels so pure, and somewhere deep inside me it reminds me of childhood.

Wow. Guess that was a bit nostalgic, wasn't it? Alright. Only two to go.



This one's called Princess Júnía, and it's probably my best piece so far. It's a picture of a friend of mine in a sort of Disney-like style, and I feel like this picture really shows how much my drawing ability has evolved over the last few years. I'm very proud of it.



This one, I support AWESOMENESS, really just deserves an honourable mention. It's my most faved deviation of all time, but it took me almost no time to make at all. I just got the idea, and made it happen. Animation is a piece of cake if you know how to google.


Well there you go. That's a sort of summarization of my deviantART page. If you liked this, you might want to it check it out.

Stay classy,
