FlishHorse Project

I was recently commissioned by Flishhorse, a professional software analyst company based in Oregon, to do some illustrations and digital paintings to help upgrade their image.
The ideas sprang from the company's unusual name, and much of the appearance is owed to a rather bizzare cross between Tristar/Columbia's pegasus and Starbuck's two-tailed siren which I used as inspiration to steer clear of the more traditional hippocampus...





Carpe Diem Sketch



Recognize the couch? I had hit a slump in my creatvie abilities, so decided to go back and do something over again... This motif is something continual for me... it's a growing experience...

Street: First Attempt



This is my first attempt at adapting the style of Craig Mullins (www.goodbrush.com). If you look at his work, you'll notice I'm far from it. but that's okay. this was my first serious attempt, and for that, it didn't do so badly. I'm now working on a new one. It looks very similar, but better... maybe...

I'm starting a new project, and simultaneously will be multi-tasking other projects I've got floating around, so be on the lookout for updates on those. and send me some feedback. I'm only posting this 'cuz my friend told me too - i'm a pushover for a good fan. :)
anyway, this is the first image of the new project, which is something of a story, but not quite... I have a habit of giving up on projects lately, so i'm trying to revive as many recent ones as seems feasible... This one is a brand new idea... well, it's sprouted from an odd rant i wrote about dreams a few months ago. ... and i think that's as much info as i can get into without you thinking i'm totally mental...

purple couch



i'm not going to make a habit of putting lousy work on my site here, but i figured i'd let this one in since i'm still learning to use my new tools. I was multi-tasking today, so i actually did this one in photoshop on my mac (which i've been bogging down with work all afternoon, but unlike the stupid dell, it hasn't frozen up) :D
