Ardhanarishvara and Alan Watts

Synthesis of masculine and feminine energies in the form of Ardhanarishvara, the combination of Shiva and Shakti (Parvati). One of my favourite mythological entities.

And just for added measure, a 45-second doodle of my philosophical hero, Alan Watts. He has a pipe.

Guess who still sucks at photoshop

Karate, do you want it?

A doodle and then the same doodle but with colour... well colour other than grey and white, anyway. I suck at colouring. Whatever, shut up.

It is caricature of one of my very old friends. She is not old, we have just been friends for a while. You know. Anyways, she does karate and has a very nice side profile and I wasn't practicing my side profiles so I decided to practice them while we and a few other people were watching a movie. The movie was The Dark Crystal. I like that movie, but it's weird watching it with a bunch of adults who've never seen it before.

I digress. Not just now, of course, that was in context; but I still have a tendency to digress.

Tasters, first draft

So, remember that whole one update per day thing? Hurr.

My friend and three others are starting a review website and he asked me to design some caricatures of them as specific types of personalities. In order we have: The functional alcoholic, the cold and calculating one, the cold-hearted meanie, and the upper-class snob. This is my first real commission, so I'm trying to take it as seriously as possible even though it's for a friend. John Kricfalusi has been a HUGE inspiration to me these past months, and he's really worked his way into my stuff.
