Alright, let the parade of crappy art begin. Here is some work, or sketches that I've done in the past, or present.

A photograph. Entitled, Ice cream sunrise.

Haha, you actually painted Raptor Jesus? Nicely done. I gotta tell you, though, I think Ice cream sunrise is fantastic.

[qwertysaur]

Ice cream sunrise is wonderful. And your work is not crappy. :)

That sketch of your friends is delightful. It's so weird but I love it.

Also more love for Ice Cream Sunrise <3

[AntRid]

Why can’t more sunrises have ice cream? Good work.

[Breine]

I like your choice of colours.

[Jiro]

I'm not usually a fan of oil paintings but your raptor jesus one has found a soft spot.

[Tofu Rocket]

Thanks, my aim is to please.

@ J: I almost never work with oil, it is so incredibly hard to work with and the ether used to cut it makes me nauseous and quite loopy XD

@B: I usually paint or work with what I have at the time. That whole lack of money thing.

@A: yeah that field reminded me of one large bowl of vanilla ice cream.

>>> Good stuff, oil paint are expensive and take forever to dry, you should try acrylic paint..:luca:

[qwertysaur]

I like how you use more than one medium to compliment each other. :p

[Tofu Rocket]

@Q: Thank you, although for the most part I paint what feels right and reguarding the emotions I'm experiencing at the time

Oil on canvas, "ascension"
(black bird was done as a gift for a friend who's boyfriend died, this is a redux, in honor of his passing into the after life) just finished it this morning*

[Rantz]

Oooh, I love this last one.

[Goldenboko]

I <3 the raptor Jesus one.

[Tofu Rocket]

Thanks, I'm currently painting a series.. kind of taking up my time, that and booze or woman. Either or is very taxing on my system. Here's some older stuff.

I would have gladly given it to you, although it was snatched up quite awhile ago.

[Jiro]

That Old Guitarist one is amazing, even more so considering it was your first piece. Untitled, Still Life and Ascension also tickle my fancy quite a lot.

[qwertysaur]

Your art is magical, each piece has it's own identity. :)

[Tofu Rocket]

@ Jiro: Thank you. Having some one appreciate art for what it is, means more to me than something money could buy. I had some help with the old guitarist to be honest, both my parents are artists. They would say, it needs more of this or that.

@ qwertysaur: None of my art really is the same. I pour every emotion I'm feeling at the time into it. The music I'm listening too also might play a factor. Such as "Taken" by Eluvium, "crips" by ratatat or "my body is a cage" by arcadefire. I could go on potentially forever. Infact I'm listening to music right now "Comptine d'un autre ete: La demarche" by Yann Tiersen. Silence is boring.
