I'm a straight-edge punk with a southern drawl. My inspiration comes from the weirdness of reality.
My style lies in the strange intersection of Traditional Fine Art, Dynamic Drawing, Pulp Comics, Manga, Impressionism, Digital Rapid Concept Painting Techniques and a little too much caffeine. I don't particularly favor any one style or school of art, but I'm a fan of pulp and ashcan art especially- gritty, scratchy, and messy has its own sort of beauty to me.

What I lack in formal art training I make up for by sheer stubbornness and a total ignorance (and indifference) to what supposedly can't be done. Call it the art equivalent of duck tape engineering.

Everything I know about art I have learned by trying things that I have no idea how to do, and grinding at them until either the piece is completely destroyed or perfect, whichever comes last.
(Think on that one for a while and it starts to make sense. When it does, you're thinking like I do. You get used to it.;))

I like to get feedback and constructive critiques, but try to be nice please. "Its my nature" and all of that.

Games as Art: here's your proof

Journal Entry: Tue Nov 20, 2012, 11:25 PM
Its called the Submachine Series, and it is one of the single most beautiful series of flashgames that I have ever had the pleasure to stumble across on the internet. Like most good games and stories, its hard to describe. If you crossed Myst, Limbo,  Lost (the tv show), and the Bone comics, you might get something like Submachine. Beautiful artwork with a goosebump-inducing and thought-provoking storyline that gives you more questions with every answer you get- particularly because, like in Lost, you frequently get answers to questions you don't even know yet! To top it all off, the series is crammed full of some of the most wonderfully frustrating "the answer is right there, you just can't see it yet" puzzles since the Myst series went on hiatus. All created by one guy, an artist from Poland named Mateusz Skutnik- he's just recently released the 8th Submachine.


If you like games like Myst, or just want to see what a genius of art and game design can create when left to his own devices and given unlimited time, heres your playable proof of games as art: [link]

  • Listening to: Shuffle
  • Reading: The Hunger Games Series (Okay, now I get the hype)
  • Watching: Lost (on hulu)
  • Playing: Fallout Tactics
  • Drinking: Dr Pepper- the real stuff with cane sugar

Hey Scorp! I'm still catching up and see that you added my photo "Sprocket" to your "Oil in the Veins" collection. Thanks very much, I'm glad you liked that one.
