Games On My Mind

LOL, I’m pretty sure that is a precise replica of my brain at the moment.

IS just great, the combination of the modern game culture but illustrated in such a richly hand made and earthly texture artwork =D Looking forward to your next instalment ‘grin’

Keep them coming shygrrrl. Forget work its not as much fun as your art!!!

Your work is beautiful! Love your stuff!

LOL, thanks Zee. I am rediscovering just how fun art is. I haven’t played games at all since I discovered RB. A new addiction maybe?
Thanks everyone for your kind words :)

love your profile pic/brilliant

Great image!

Says so much…deep and yet playful…awesome work:-)

Aw thanks guys. I’m really loving this style of work. Just finding time around my day job is hard. I’ll continue with the series soon :)

I like this piece. I can imagine your art printed on a shoulder-bag, or maybe as the iimprinted into the surface of a coffee-table! It’s distinctly unique. I particularly like the tea-stained background.

Hey, thanks for the advice Stephen, i’ll start adding some more tags asap (i really had no clue what to put on them). I got such a kick out of creating this series, but kind of lost momentum when I got bogged down with work. I’m looking forward to freeing up some extra time soon to continue. I have two more in the series that I am really fond of, but don’t think I can post them because of copyright. One has the Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons, and the other has Betty Page.

was ambling thru your work shygrrrl, what a great piece..respect!

Thanks Leigh. This was my very first attempt at that particular style of art. I liked it so much it inspired me to create a few more. It’s always nice when someone sees the same things that you do in a piece of work and validate your pride. :)

This is genius! Love your style.

So nice – love it

No, no, don’t say “argh”.......If this is what comes from your mind being full of games, let it flow!! There is the most beautiful balance of “weights”, as in density/delicacy throughout. It is really a lovely, visually exciting piece of artwork. One of my favourites for sure!

Love the colours and art style.

Great image, love the contrast between the game brain and everything else in the image :)

Good lord, i haven’t looked at what’s been going on in ages, and all of a sudden i stumble accross all these lovely comments that somehow I missed. Thanks so much everyone :)

Hey shygrrrl, I love this artwork, it looks almost antique, and in contrast it has references to video games and technology. Very cool. Thank you for your wonderfull comments on my work. My works will be for sale shortly if you want to buy robot vs woman :)

Keep me posted :)

people don’t understand that that is a rare condition which i happen to have its just good to see it be recognized – i – i’m just glad that me and my gf aren’t alone out there . . . gtg play zelda now bye!

LOL FabiaN. Maybe we should organise a support group for people like us?

I remember thinking how much I liked this piece when I first joined RB, can’t believe I didn’t leave a comment. I’m so jealous you work in the games industry, that’s something I’ve always thought about but haven’t pursued… yet. As for the image, like everyone, I love the colours you’ve used as well as how you have overlaid your textures. The Bees flying away from the flower are terrific.

This is beautiful. I actually didn’t even notice the shape of the outline inside the head, but the whole piece has this dirty, yet beautiful, African feel to it that I am personally drawn to. Great work.

Great work!

Truly magnificent and unique.

Beautifully playful, and also a serious piece of art – love the overall composition, and the use of texture.

love all the shapes and textures in this image.

I agree this is a really good piece, I like it the best. Billy from Melbourne.

This has been in my favorites from the start and I’m ashamed i haven’t commented on it before – It’s really lovely.

Very interesting work! Something that makes you look again and again.

Elegant work with beautiful intricate details with a beautiful oriental motif. The colors and textures and masterfully understated in this exceptional piece.

I like the concept. =)
The flowers are very nicely-drawn
and the colours are wonderful!

I LIKE IT VERY MUCH !!!!!

Great that the ideas are buzzing around!!

coolio.
