"The Other Side" Santa's Slip

I have been debating lately if I wanted to do another Christmas card or not.  I was brainstorming other cards for other special occasions and I had this idea pop into my head.  It seemed humorous enough so I started drawing and this is what I came up with.

This is the next card in my line of greeting cards on RedBubble called "The Other Side."

I hope you enjoy it.

"The Other Side" Snowman Snowcone

Since I have joined RedBubble I have been trying to think of ways to get more artwork out there.  I came up with the idea to do some greeting cards.  I didn't want them to be typical cards so that they would stand out a little bit.  I decided to call this line of cards "The Other Side."  They are meant to be humorous and a little abnormal.  Certainly not cards you would send to your grandma or something (unless she had a weird sense of humor).

The first card in this series is the "Snowman Snowcone."  This card features a snowman relaxing and enjoying his favorite treat.

Santa Robot

 

Tis the season! Santa Robot is here to bring toys to all the little robot children. Let Santa Robot be the face of your holidays.

Santa Robot continues my series of pictures featuring famous robots.  Don't ask me why; I just like robots.  I wanted something to start the holiday season off right and this is what I came up with.  It was actually my wife's idea to do Santa as a robot.

Santa Robot is available in my Red Bubble store.  He was drawn in ArtRage, a natural media program from Ambient Design.

Red Bubble

I am on a new website called Red Bubble.  It is a place where individuals can exhibit artwork, photography, and writings.  It is a nice place to view creative works.  It has options to purchase peoples' work in various formats.  Check it out.

The Worst Class Ever

I call this piece, "The Worst Class Ever."  It is a collage of sketches I made during lectures for a class I took called Methods of Research.  The professor was an interesting guy but I learned almost nothing in his class.  So I spent my time making little doodles and sketches on my notes, on handouts, or anything else that was nearby.  I scanned what I thought were the best ones and made a collage with Google's Picasa.  (I passed the class with a B.)

Robama

Robama is the first piece of art I would like to share.  Those that know me know that I am not a very "political" person.  I just thought this image would look great as a robot.  That being said, I know many people will take it as political satire.  That is fine; it was intentional to a degree.  With the subject matter it cannot help but be political.  That is the great thing about art though.  It is an individual experience separate from the artist and his or her own intentions.  This image is inspired by the print done by Shepard Fairey of President Obama.

This image was drawn with a program from Ambient Design called ArtRage.  It is a natural media program that is impressive in its capabilities.

A fine art print of this image can be purchased in my Etsy store.
