Panoramic Insomnia.
I’m using this for ‘Passion’ because I’m passionate about learning how to work new mediums, and this was the second time I used oil pastels only after an in-class still life.

Just a little update.

We’ve been slacking a lot lately. And with good reason - school. It will be out VERY soon. We’ll get better, but for right now, we’re focused on the upcoming finals. PLEASE, spread the word and submit your art. We’ll still have time to accept art that’s been submitted. (:

Thnx for all the patience,

-Keershton.

Wax Wings

I’ve missed a lot of topics, i’m hoping to catch up soon. THis Poem is for the new topic ‘Passion’

Well, its been

Six hundred and sixty six days after his heart took its first beat

And it’s been

Seven hundred and seventy seven days after she took her first hit

Higher and higher she went, but could never touched the clouds

For her wings were make of wax

No matter how far she stretched out her hands they stayed at her finger tips

But she kept her eyes on the stars and said there was something more out there

But, Lower and lower she fell and those clouds got further and further away

So I stepped off my stool and said:

“I will take you to those stars, We’ll leave this world behind

We can walk through the ocean, the waves will wash us away

I will be here till the end and forever after that

When the memories leave your eye and run down your face

I will be there

I will take your tears and pain

I will take every frail string and tighten up the seams

I will heal you, girl can you heal me?”

You said you could heal me in time, but time favors none

Days fade we all find ourselves living in the hour glass

Just wanting to take our lives back

So here we are

As the sand falls like snow

I see you once again reaching for the clouds

And I told you I’d be there any time you fall apart

But darling, now I need you here with me

We’ve done so well, but now i’ve torn the stiches apart

We’re inhaling sand and i’ve already got lungs so full of sea water and ash

I’ve got memories that eat away at my sanity

My dear, my darling,  how frail can we be?

We bend like trees in the wind

The closer our heads get to the ground, the better chance we have of breaking, always bending

Closer and closer the the ground with less chances of mending

All we want is to touch the sky, to feel the clouds through our branches, but we are stuck here

Digging our roots in, just trying to survive

I tried to dig up my roots, for you

I wanted to be strong for you, but once again im sweaying in the wind

AND DARLING I FEEL LIKE A FAILURE, I’m in a place where I no longer know what to do

There is distance between us and all my heart needs is to lay with you once more

All I need is to see you smile as you tell me about your day as you take another drag of your cigerrette

As we sit outside and watch the trees sway

You are everything I wanted and now I’ve placed distance between us, with every mile theres less of a smile

Every day after the next, I feel further away in every way

You are everything I need, all I wanted was to be a home to you

So I cut myself down and made walls for you

But my walls creek in the wind, my roof leaks in the rain

And in the night I creek and groan

Oh, I am but a skeleton with the frailest of bones

I am the house that groans in the night

I am a failure, to myself and you

I put distance between us when you needed me

I failed you when you made me so proud

All I wanted was to replace the pain with smiles

AND I HAVE FAILED YOU, GOD FORGIVE ME!, I did what I could

I can’t find my strength anymore so I’m calling out to you

I have been breating in your love and I need just a little more

Tell me one day we will rest, arm in arm as we smile together

Day after day in our home together

Tell me we’ll make it to those stars and our wings won’t be so frail

My current project is painting all of the Teen Titans. I still have to do Starfire and Cyborg.

I don’t know how to let you submit a photoset, but this was technically submitted to us by a link. (:

I don’t really like rules, so I just did complementary colors. 
I call this piece, “high hands”
 Painted in acrylic on glued together a scraps of foam/matte board.
 Also, I ran out of one red paint in the middle so that’s why it’s two different colors, I’ll probably go over it again when I don’t have school.
And sorry about the bad picture quality

Next topic to get your brain going on a new art project!

RULES

Basically by that, just focus on one(or more) rule(s) of art. i.e. complementary colors, rule of thirds, composition and line, any of the principles and elements of design, etc.

Remember, all the topics are open for submitting! Submit something you’ve already done, or create something new and use the topics for inspiration! 

Also, send us a topic idea to add to our bowl of topics to choose from.

Happy creating!

Another version of my Ratbat. I did this one for my Computer Applications class.
Since I’m in 3 art classes, I’ll be posting tons of stuff, so in order to not make this a blog full of only my work, let’s see some more submissions!

Hello all, I thought I’d share a portrait I did a year ago for my Drawing I class using no blending tools what so ever. Just purely pencil.

Hey guise!

We’ve decided to change the guidelines/rules to how we’ll be doing things.

NO MORE DEADLINES.

We’ll still post themes/topics once or twice a month.

There’s a link at the top of our page which has all the topics we’ve had so far, THEY’RE ALL BACK OPEN, including FREE DRAW, which means if you have something to submit that doesn’t reflect a topic, it’s like a wild card or whatever. 

When submitting, make sure we know which one you’re submitting for!

Cheers & happy creating!

When Prayer is the Only Answer

imageI dedicate this art doodle for the Filipinos who mourned for almost a week because of the heavy rainfall and flood the storm has caused. The woman is a representation of Mother Nature praying and asking for God’s providence. The disastrous event only pertains to one simple message. This moment is the perfect time to turn to God and pray. Bible verses were spread all over social networking sites saying how coincidental this catastrophe is to what happened in the story of Noah’s Ark. It might be true but whatever God’s plan is, He just wants us to trust and to believe in Him.

Very nice submission!

The next topic isss…

pick a partner and do whatever the fuck you want together. The deadline will be Jan. 30th for now. (;

We’re still allowing universe pieces, not sure for how much longer. We’ll keep you updated.

We’ll be more obligated to keep up with deadlines the more people submit, so spread the word! (:

Submit ideas for topics too! :3

For the universe topic, I put Vince and myself in space. Because he’s my everything.
