the amazing francie brady!

installation one of idfk how many of the rise above, pma pieces i wanna do.

whaaaat.

during my cleptomaniacal adventure at a.c. moore i was stunned to see that liquitex now makes an acrylic ink.
is it possible and/or wrong that i am now seeking a art supply sugar daddy?
any takers?

the to do list

so i'm halfway done with this. i wanna put some cutesy things on the right, tattoo flash style. 
later you'll see why i titled this the to do list. 
also-not to point out my faults but i need to stop and look at my work before i proceed. working from my bed gives some of my work tunnel vision type proportion. this is a prime example. after re-evaluating what i wanted to do with the piece, i decided to leave the hands as small as i'd drawn them in. it will work with the heavy right side better... BUT the original illustration had a gorgeous proportion that balanced it well. 
i will be breaking out the table top easel soon b/c this drove me nuts until i figured out where it was going to go.
all in all, i think this piece is amazing. so far.


6.13.2010

getting there,
should be finishing this sometime during the week.

and tada!


fruition


thankfully these guys are really coming along. wanna put some splashy business and some fish blood.... or something. all that's important is that i got home at 4am and i'm still ready to work when i get up.

SOCIAL PARIAH SPESHUL:

example of the gem you could own from visiting social pariah fest.
i'm selling them for 2 bucks a pop, haiku, doodle, cute card.
or, appropriately, free with the purchase of whiskey for my consumption.
10 minit!
that is all.
ps- all dudes need this outfit (love, kate and jeska @ the hereticwear table.)

gater wraslin' & horse wranglin'

 
  

 
ok, so to some degree we can all agree i believe in symbolism and some mysticism.
i'm a horrible gypsy type, but i know when it's best i just listen, something i can't explain is better left to following directions, so here's some weird shit for my night stand.
sparked some creativity that doesn't involve hot glue so i won't complain.
i'm sick of making bows. i have 9 days til social pariah fest and about 2-3 weeks till monster mania. i'm sick of bows and in love with these.

slowly, but surely.






slowly, but surely, i'm working on the banner for this very blog.so far, this is where we're at. eventually, it breaks my heart to say it but i'll have to convert this to rgb (arrgeeebargee, i like the letters in that order.) b/c i see already, it's not working out.

baaaaaam


jeska the everliving.
and how.

workin' hard. this is the new year sucka.


and now i'm almost ready to sell some E-surance.
simple hair is kinda tricky. it would have been easier to make each piece one by one.
i'm debating bringing my arm in only b/c a line drawing of my tattoo is still badass.
so far i've used 2 different images, compiling my awesomeness. please see previous posts.
yay!
breaktime for some sweet and sour meatballs.

2010 intentions


i intend on spanding at least 8 hours a week on a new or several new art/jeska projects.
i plan on readin' the illustrator book the usps refuses to give me, once a week.
i plan to conquer this goddamn program before i re-install photoshop.
i intend on being me.
growing as me.
(this is how i've grown in a span of a total 5 hours on this stupid project.
painting is sooo much faster.)
and will be taking on some old fire.
happy new years jerks!
also- the jello shots are flying in my house.
EEEEEK
