Well I havent been doing much in the art world lately but I found myself with some free time so whipped this one together quick. I like how it turned out althoughlike always theres a bunch of lil things I’d like to change. Hop ya all like it.
Well this one I just wanted to make a picture come to life if you will. For this one I started with a photo I took of a lake thats located in between Campbell River and Gold River BC. Then added a frame and decided to make the subjects break free of the frame, so added the bear and the eagle. Finishing it off with a reflection for a classy look.
I saw this stock photo and thought I could do somthing with it. I started by taking a picture of the universe and making it into a sphere to replaces the fruit. Then I wanted it to be more in the blues and added the clouds and light for that sorta angelic look. Finished off with an eye colour change to make things match.
Well this is one of my favorite photo manipulations of myself to date. I really like how the contrast and the eyes turned out and as you can see at the time of writing this post its the image I chode for the background to my site.
Well made this one for a friend of mine Katrina. Went with the good evil theme as you can see. The left half being all dead and evil and the right being alive and good. Was a pretty fun piece to create and Im pretty happy with how it turned out. Its always fun to make your friends look all evil.
Smoking Lady
Model: -Link-
Programs Used: photoshop
Well for this I started with a photo thanks to Faestock on deviantart. The original photo had short hair and I wanted long so I started by drawing in the hair. Then I felt I wanted a cold look so I changed the colours to blues and purples. The smoke was created with some smoke brushes and a lil freehand editing. Finished it off with the highlights to bring out the eyes and a nice blue background.
Tentacles
Programs Used: Photoshop
Well this one was sorta fun to make. I started off with a picture of a beach in Penticton, BC that I took. Then decided I wanted to do a shipwreck deal so found a ship applied some rust and graffitti textures to it to make the shipwreck look. The tentacles were made from a photo of some earrings I found and with the puppet warp tool I warped them and made them into the finished product. Then finished it off with a picture I took of the sky during the Kelowna, BC forest fires and added the shining light effect last.
Spark Plug
Programs Used: Photoshop
Model: Me
Well this is one of my favorite photo manipulations I’ve done. I started of with a stock photo of myself and a picture of a spark-plug that I found around the net. I just wanted to make a surreal sorta peice so I added the background the gun and a little bit of wires for brains. In the end this is the finished peice. I do have this one as a print hanging in my house too
Ocean Pearl

The inspiration for this one came from first the finding of this stock photo which made me think of a song by one of my favorite bands 54-40 called Ocean Pearl.
For those of you who dont know the songs here are the lyrics….
