This is one of a series that I'm working on. The series is a real work in progress but here's the idea behind them:
I have always been fascinated by shapes and patterns and one of the earliest forms of artwork was cave paintings. Cave-dwelling man spewing colored liquid across the backs of their hands to form shapes of hands on cave walls in order to leave their marks on this earth. Eerily the first graffitti known in the universe. Very nifty stuff. Well, I was doodling around with the crude shape of a hand and really started to have some fun ideas springing up about making the shape fit other designs and how many other characters I could create using the form itself. So, here is the first one in the series: Mr. Space Beaver.
I have at least four more of these ready to go and I'm still churning out the ideas so maybe this will go somewhere.
I had planned on using these little digital versions as color studies for full-sized paintings. That will only happen if I can find a dealer willing to give me some hanging space in a local show or I get the demand from someone who wants to pay me for a real painting and not just a digital print. Who knows I may just submit it to a publisher as an art book when they're all done.
More to follow. Comments are welcome.
ENJOY!
