Another self-portrait? Not entirely. The figure is decidedly choosing the perspective from which it is looking at itself. Removed and from above, it can safely criticize itself and feel simultaneously better than the subject and worst about themselves. it begs the answer to the question "are we ourselves?" This odd figure, with its Ichabod Crane … Continue reading Looking Down On Oneself
Self-Distortion
I'm lead to believe from all the books I'ver read on self-improvement, that most of us really don't see ourselves as we truly are. This self-distortion emanated from us, and influences how others see us, thus authenticating our self-perception while further concretizing a corrupted self-perception. It's a vicious circle that always starts from within us, … Continue reading Self-Distortion
The Eternal
Perhaps it's due to the recent obsession with Marvel movies and what's coming next in the MCU, or perhaps it's just the way the hair looks like the flames of a garden gas torch, but when I started the process of editing this little face, the words eternal flame came to mind. It somehow looks … Continue reading The Eternal
Thoroughly Unimpressed
At first it was a copy of thickly painted oil painting, and I was getting frustrated at the great details in the original. So, I decided to let go and just doodle it.

While editing the image to share, I find myself … Continue reading Subtle Thinking
Rough Selfie In Anger
Dark moods are occasionally hard to control and I've been swimming in one hell of a dark mood lately. Talking about it isn't giving the relief. Working out isn't either. Writing helps momentarily. I just feel really heavy in my heart and feel angry about not getting out of this mood. This doodle feels close … Continue reading Rough Selfie In Anger
Painted Sky
The clouds swirled around some unseen source.Not sun, not moonSome light hole in the sky. It took a fraction of a second to see it dissipate after I caught it. When I brought the image into photoshop, some of the swirl had magically evaporated and left behind hints of this aquamarine sky. See More at Arts M.Perron
Watercolour Sky
Sunrise almost always inspires my creativity. The framing of this one was I'm portent, as I was taking random shots from across the street and found myself frustrated by the signs of human presence: houses, electrical wires, etc… While cropping to get the framing right, I saw more than my original attraction tin to the … Continue reading Watercolour Sky
