Title: White Tower

On his own small grassy hill is the wizard of the fairies. It's said that he had a hand in convincing the gods to create butterflys. He is a master of the spells of transformation, and is said to have taught Merlin the spell of transformation that changed Uther Pendragon into Gorlois, Duke Of Cornwall so he could lay with Igraine.

The spells of transformation are the most common used spells in the fairy world. It is more uncommon for a human to see a fairy in there normal form.

Fairies of light use these spells to play pranks on humans.

Their darker counterparts have taken the place of humans. They are often refered to as "Changlings" They wish to see an end to the human race.

Remember all you have to do is wear your clothes inside out to drive them off.

Happy Daydreams,

W.E.A.

Passion.

Ignite.
Ignite my desire.
Let's blaze with fire.
Burn on pire!

Conspire.
Fire on fire.
So drinched in sweat.
our wild desire.

Down.
Down beside her.
Let's blaze no higher
Sleep now fire.

Jack Butler and Family

As an artist sometimes you get lucky. Jack is a very good friend of mine. He is the older gentleman in the green shirt - fourth from the right. He was kind enough to invite me over to christmas with his family. My family is small and scattered across the USA. down to about four.
I am very thankful to jack for allowing me to partake in a big family christmas once more. I could tell they loved him very much.
Santa can be very kind sometimes. It only s**ked when I got home and one of my clients was wanting changes to his banner tonight - ON CHRISTMAS! (See Emma's Banner) Sometimes its a pain to be a designer.

On another note. Illustration friday is turning out to be quite interesting. To see such diverse artists is mind blowing, yes I have been going through everyones posts. unlike other art community's where it feels like we're all simular artists. Illustration friday seems to bring together quite a unique group unlike the average groups, and a special thanks to those of you who have stopped by and made comments. Cheers and Happy holidays!

The Group: Pinnicles

Here I am at Pinnicles with my friends.
From left to right: Me, Mike, Miguel, Arturro (Opps! had it backward for a while. I'm the one in white and blue)
We spent the day Hiking, Climbing, and Caving.
Here we're getting ready to go down into Bear Glutch Caves.
That day we hiked to the very top.
It was rainy, wet, and Cold - we had a great time.

Two Roads.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I - -
I took the one less traveled by, and
that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost
The Road Not Taken
US Poet (1874 - 1963)

If every their was a poem that speaks of an artists life. Good Ol' Mr. Frost found it.
I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Christmas.

The Tree of Darkness

Tree of Darkness
Well of death
In the woods
Is where they rest
Far within
Through tangled trees
The fairies guard
By all their means
Hidden secret
In magick grove
Is where you find
The dark things grow
Sliver of bark
Laced with dew
Shall be the end
The end of you.

New years banner: EMMA'S

Ah. working during the holiday's drives me crazy but its part of the job. I've decided that 2006 is going to be a strong year. So I'm filling up on a big plate of work.

This peice is all vector/illustrator. It makes it extremely easy for the printer's. It's 3' x 8' to hang outside the club for the week. There is so much more I could do with it, but I got the job yesterday and it was needed by today. So you have to sacrifice alot of the great idea's to the demon of speed, and be happy with a "It will do." inside yourself.

In a nutshell. It all comes down to artist vs. designer - What you want to do for yourself vs. what is the concept and best interest of your client.

Another christmas eve chained to the drawing board.

Santa better not bring me coal again, (wink). I've only been moderately naughty this year.
