Ask the Art Gods
I ask a question, and the art answers back
How Long Must I Be Haunted?
Marker, watercolor, and colored pencil on paper
Whatever it was that haunted me while making this piece, it was overwhelming enough to inspire this wild and hasty drawing. I remember laying down some wet-on-dry watercolor, and then leaping straight into the colored pencils and markers.
How Will I Use This Power?
Ink, marker, watercolor, and colored pencil on paper
This piece is darker in palette than most of my work, but the subject matter fits right in with the kind of questions I was asking myself at that time. The lone superhero could be anyone. What will they use their immense power to do? Create? Destroy? Protect?
Where Do You Visit in Your Dreams?
Ink and watercolor on paper
Where do you visit in your most wonderful dreams? This was the question I asked myself when I put paint to paper. I remember laying down the watercolor wet-on-dry and letting it sit for a while before I inked in the details.
Why Do I Keep Climbing?
Ink, marker, and watercolor on paper
We climb because there is an obstacle in the way. We climb because we must. We keep on going because time marches forward, and there is no going back.
Why Do Our Heroes Wear Masks?
Acrylic and paint marker on paper
To this day I'm not sure why the hero in this drawing has such a look of conflict on his face. I see something different in his eyes every time I look at him. Why did he choose to be a hero? Why the monstrous mask?
