This week's theme shall be fall!
Hey there lovely ladies! What with the slight chill in the air that has descended upon Southern California and the arrival of pumpkin patches I'm thinking this week's drawing theme shall be fall. So give it your best shot at what fall means to you. In sexy lady form of course! ;)

Libra, a balancing act
This is my take on Libra, the scales. Anyone who has dropped their keys with a full load of groceries understands what an epic balancing act it is trying to pick them up without losing everything. Sometimes it goes your way sometimes it doesn't. And always you're reminded that sometimes you should just make two trips from the car. :P Enjoy!

"Two of Swords" - Arabian Nights Theme
So I've been quite busy lately with my new job at Sunken Media LLC, but I had some time to finish my Tarot piece last minute =P I actually finished, printed, framed and delivered my "Two of Swords" piece Friday the night before the show. I was also to busy to attend the show, but I wish I could've because it sounded like it was going to be great! Will attend before it's over though!
Here's my finished "Two of Swords" piece:
Before I started this piece, I thought about the swords. I told myself I wanted to make them look beautiful, but claymores(to me) are so boring and ugly. The straightness of the claymores ruins the composition, shooting the eye flow out the piece. So I thought to use the sword I loved the most, which were Arabian swords(Also Pirate swords), otherwise, Scimitars. From there I followed down theme with a Arabian Nights storybook look. I always wanted to make a Persian/Arabian themed piece so I was very excited. I chose a belly dancer mainly for the detail in their jewelry and their gorgeous figure. I ended up finding out that belly dancers actually have a dance which they move with the scimitars, one balanced on their head and one which they swung around lovely. I could've made this piece more dynamic, like in pose and background, but I always make pieces like that so I mimicked the classic tarot card look were they seem a bit rigid and strong. While designing the piece I noticed she would have to be blindfolded, but I don't like removing eyes off my pieces because I feel the eyes connect people to the artwork. So I made her blind, with a sheer blindfold to continue the effect. The Two of Swords was about decision making, and I felt this was a true test of my ability to choose what was right.
Sorry for the long description, hope you all like!
