Sunday fun with mixed media

Some times it is fun to just see what will happen if... The other day I took a slow exposure photo of a light and moved the camera around in circles. The ititial picture although it was fun it was too bright. After adjusting the photo with my computer this is what I get.
     Today I was feeling like creating something, actually a number of somethings. I drew using faber castell artist pens of various widths. Then followed up with water color. I did another painting the same way and finally ink and marker. See if you can tell which one has marker and which ones are watercolor.

I think I look pretty awsome. I mean it is photo realistic, don't ya think? lol, maybe I could use it as pro sports card or my campaign logo for president.

This one is a photo self portrait.

This is from a portrait of an old president, much modified.

This one I will not be posting on Pinterest as my wife hates when I post any pictures with her in it, but I really like it. It shows my lack of skill ok, but it is still fun.

BYUH Art show

jenns got a moose on the loose.

Jennifer got her new silhouette machine and this is project number one. Small amount of air got in the way when sending image through cutter, but all in all a very nice picture. Great use of old cedar planks from the garage collected from craigslist. Kudos to my wahine!

Junk yard fun

Fun at the junk yard. So many random and fun shapes.

 Even with its time earned rusted patina it comands a certain respect.

 Time settles all things.

 Beautiful turqoise, the perfect color to set in a silver ring.

 Tractors are always fun. Growing up we had one to play on that had long been out of comission.

You can almost see the load falling from the bucket of this long since stationary machine.

Random sketches

Cars as status symbols, symbols of thier status.

Some of the coolest parts of cars are the little things that make them unique, things that have no special function except maybe to say hey I am a Rolls, or a chevy, or they may have a function but it is secondary to the design such as a tail light of a 57 chevy. Here are some pictures I have collected from a car show with this thought in mind. It gives us the chance to see the artist at work with the signature they put on thier car.

Bird's Tail

Doorway to imagination.

Classic.

Gotta love the charecter these elements bring.
