Encounter

I constructed a slightly different scene with elements of my main project, for the purpose of print.

6. Grey Hound

30 Themes challenge nr 6 "Grey Hound"

This is a small acrylic painting that I upped the contras on in photoshop, to give it a more modern horror feel with all it's grey static high contrast creepyness. Modern horror films have replaced lightning strikes with static tv's I think.

Ink sketches

Did these A5 sketches with a fineliner and penbrush. I'm being confused as of late about artist styles and trying to decide what I want to do as an artist. At the moment I consider this kind of work fun, unlike my digital, painting, drawing from life, who can quickly get frustrating. I suppose it is because I'm not trying to achieve anything with them other than drawing weird things.

Leopard eyes

I made this in my last uni project, though this isn’t the final. It was a musing about the leopard spots looking like eyes when I had to draw realistic looking leopards for my own take on a WWF campaign.

Book Project Result

Latest uni project. It was about childrens books. I made these double page spreads based on a videogame I want to make someday. It is dream related. The material I used is watercolour on Gesso.

Slenderman Uni Project

This is my Interpretation of the legendary creepypasta Slender man, the favourite horror story on the internet that people still believe in!

Slenderman is often though of as a paranormal being who snatches people away if he is witnessed, so if you see him, you have to pretend not to see or somehow erase your memory if you hope to live. He is characterised as a tall and slender figure with limited or no facial features and many arms or tentacle like appendages. 

I like the idea of a slenderman that not only murders/rapes, but actually does damage to society as a whole by puppeteering important individuals like politicians, this is why I associate slenderman to webs and strings as well. The cruel thing, is if he were to puppet people, noone could do anything about it, thus putting more pressure on the situation where if you DO spot him, you SHOULD report to authorities, but would you at the cost of your own life?

So Hide yo kids, Hide you wife, Hide yo kids, Hide yo wife. cus he's rapin' errybody out there.

Slenderman Uni Project

Below you see version 4 of my Slenderman scetch.

It is a work in progress for my uni summer project. It is themed "urban legends and myth" and I chose slenderman. He may not be a "real" legend, but people actually believe in him, or did, anyway. He is a very fascinating subject.

I like the idea of a slenderman whom, once you see, will hunt you down, but If you pretend not to notice and go on with your business, you may just convince him you didn't see and you can get lucky and live to tell the tale. Whatever business he's up to, I'd like it to be more complicated, sinister and mysterious than just plain old murdering/raping people, so i would love to add to the sort of lore surrounding him. Like if he actually puppeteers humans to make them do horrible things, or even take on a politician to do damage to society as a whole. I think that would put more pressure on the situation if you were to see him, because you "should" do something about it, like report to authorities, yet the moment you admit to seeing him, you are most likely going to die.

What i'm doing with the picture here, is try to get a good composition, while leading the viewers eye to allways return to slender man. I'm not quite there yet, would love to hear some feedback on this. I added the tree to cover up parts of the foreground to give the viewer a sense of being in the shot, and thus have reason to be unnerved. I would love some feedback on weither you find this makes it more or less unnerving. The lamp is for light and size reference. If you were to guess, how tall does slenderman seem to be, and do you think the perspective is ok? Any other feedback is welcome, but I barely begun the process of rendeing, but you can comment on that too if you want.

mimi

I couldn't think of a title so i just put mimi there.

I'm practicing other artists artsyles in the name of scie- i mean learning! It is only observational and for helping me evolve and produce my own style eventually.
