Due to the serious lack of visual art in the art forum i'll be uploading my art into this thread over the next little while. The first is one i did in grade 10 and the second i did last year. While im not to proud of either of them, they were the only ones that were able to fit in my scanner. The rest will have to be transfered to my computer via digital camera. Enjoy..
While i like this one mainly because its spidey, i definetely dont think its my best work simply because its a copy of a magazine picture.
This was done in order to get the hang of the technique "burnishing" before i commited to a much larger formatt.

"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.
