Description

Although I had to search for hours, I couldn't find any pictures of real cat skulls from the damn side, they were all at every other angle, which made me laugh sometimes. I was kind of afraid to use reference, because I didn't want the skull to look like anyone else s, that also made me laugh because what else would a cat skull look like then a cat skull, of-course they will look the same. ha!

Thank God for Museums!! They always upload pictures of old cat skulls shit like that. Still I looked at medical diagrams crap like that, I still couldn't really get a accurate sketch down. The jaws also wrong, and the teeth are most likely in the wrong places, it doesn't matter much I will have to take it as artistic representation.

( Up in the top Left Corner) What's funny is the skeleton demon thing and its head are made with out reference of any kind and my god its far from anything but I am also glad, because, its unique ha-ha-aha-ha!

I Was thinking of having winged demons flying from the right corner but didn't feel like adding them in, I'm tired of looking at this painting as a whole.

Also, By the way, the demon coming out of the mouth of the skull in the bottom right, I am working on another representation in another file, As there is a full sketch and painting of the demon as a whole, and I'd like to show it off, since it took me forever to get the anatomy.

If I submitted it, would it bother you if the skull changed completely from one painting to the next, I felt If I kept going with the demon on a separate canvas it would become likely a far call from the original.

There's more to that demon then just the arm, would be a shame to not show em off.

I am glad I got this one done as it is right now I work a shit load this month.......and I never know to the fuck to enter into keywords...

I feel for you. I did skull studies a few years back. I found good skulls for most critters. But a few just never had it right. I was trying to get down some of the nuances between a tiger and a puma, and there wasn't a single good one for the comparison between the sides back then. Haven't checked recently.

You seem to be really working a lot with space on this piece, that and simple motion/static stuff.

I dunno what you're themes might shift too, but I'm intrigued. Have you been busy with fantasy/religion in your head? Or... perhaps I'm too curious here... do you feel the need to create more in those genres. I'm just asking. It's funny, but I've always thought that it's hardest to be original in those genres... so maybe it's the challenge, eh?


Either way, very evocative piece. I'm thinking a lot about heat and dryness , and it almost seems like it'd be windy where-ever this is taking place.

Anyways, fascinating. You've always been original in my eyes, but not because always that you strive to be (I hate to say that), but just because you are original. I don't know if you really need to try. But then again, I'm not you.

Also, how ya been? :]
