Speaking of art...

bladesparkOne of the things I saved was the best of my prints. These are hand printed type prints, not computer prints. I took photos of 'em today. The photo quality isn't great, but the pictures themselves are nice. And these aren't print runs, they're print tests, which means that actually no two of them will look exactly alike, so the pics I'm putting up here are more like samples.
If anybody would like one of these prints, let me know! They're mostly on 18 X 12 paper. Some of the orientals are on rice paper, the others are on heavy BFK drawing paper.

(The story behind the sad dragon in the corner is kinda funny. I kept doing dragon prints in that class, and my teacher hated it. She thought they were kitch, and horrible, and so on. This was a bit hypocritical of her, as her favorite subject for print making was kittens, but I digress. Anyhow, this was my "you have rejected me, you hate dragons, woe!" print. The other fun one was the little book I made, which looks like it's nothing but abstract designs, but is actually full of dragons, if you can only spot them. Happily she was a good teacher, so even though we fought over subject matter, I fulfilled the assignments, and thus got an A in the class anyhow.)

I got away with doing nothing but dragons and unicorns and other fantasy creatures in early highschool (the last place I really got to pursue art in school) because my instructor loved everything I did for some reason (she even stole some of my art and kept it for years!!). It became a bit of a game for me to structure my project such that it fulfilled her criteria, AND still got to be about dragons in some way or another. ;D
