My Neighborhood

I have always liked the place I live, a house in a neighborhood of Flint Michigan. Lately, I like it even better. Some very good things have been happening here lately, among them this. A vacant house that had been abandoned and falling to pieces for years was recently demolished. It looks like a neighbor plans to plant a garden in its place.

Castle Defenders

Here is a fun commission that I did for Alexandra L. and her beau. It is based on a live action role playing game that both of them enjoy playing. The castle in the background is based on a photo of a real castle on a play site. Alexandra is the Tiger girl. This piece was very interesting because it involved coloring an existing piece of gray tone art, modifying an existing photo, creating the portrait of a second person and putting them all together in a single image. Thanks, Alexandra, for this very cool commission!
