kinda in a rut lately. tryin to figure out a focus so i can make a series of work on it. played Zelda Twilight Princess recently, hence the drawing of Link. :)
i would get the new Skyward Sword game, but then i know i wouldn’t get much else done.

The Era
The Era - available here!
finished this painting today. oil on a hand stretched canvas given to me by a friend. the surface was really really rough and a natural beige.
i’m used to smooth canvases so this was different. I should try coarser canvases for different types of paintings. :)

Such a beautiful sight. :, ). this is about the 4th time my gf and I have made sushi and i must say we are getting better at it. We even make a spicy mayo dressing.
Of course there is none of our raw favorites, cause i just couldnt trust myself with the responsibilities. And i would hate to waste a perfectly good fish. D:

The Natives, two paintings i did recently based on some sketches done a while back. These went pretty smooth except for the feathered headdress one. It turned out a little more complicated than i had wanted. The one on the right came out more natural, and feels more simple and elegant to me. :)
