Long absence

I haven't posted anything in a very long time because my computer broke. Now I don't have PhotoShop so I don't have any digital work but I'll try to keep posting my traditional stuff. Here's what's new:

fairy tattoo design.

Marilyn Manson. 18" x 24" Acrylics on canvas.

Pen drawing on my shoes.

Daffodils. 9" x 12" Acrylics on canvas.

Sunset. 24" x 36" Acrylics on canvas.

Dali portrait in progress.

eagle with flag work in progress.


On a side note, I'm making die-cut decals so if anyone is interested, you can visit my shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/jmgraphicx?ref=si_shop

scratched wood textures

Hope you can find some use for these textures. If you have a special request, please let me know.
