Self Portrait…..
After an afternoon worth of the old ultra-violence, and bit of a have at it with a gangly old Baboochka, the decomposing droog makes his way over to the local Moloko bar to relax his aching gulliver and fill fill it with the wonderous sounds of Beethoven’s ninth. To those of you that can figure out what in the world any of that means, good for you. We should hang out sometime. To those of you that are completely and totally confused by what you can only assume are the rambling of a madman above, and the odd t-shirt to the left, shame on you. I plan on not answering your phone calls from this moment on.
I am forever inspired by the visual beauty of Kubrick films. This is a graphic take on the brilliant ‘future-shock vision’ film A Clockwork Orange, in which the protagonist Alex is given shock therapy to prevent him from enjoying the crimes he commits. After the treatment is complete, whenever Alex has evil or malicious thoughts, he feels like throwing up. Perhaps this is how we should treat the purveyors of contemporary evils?
You don’t need to be born a faerie to be a faerie, if you’re an inventive steampunk, you can make your own wings! The (currently) last image in the Goths, Faeries and Lace series, and very close to my favourite of all time!

Time heals all wounds. Time flies when you’re having fun. Time stands still. Time waits for no one. If I could turn back the hands of Time. Frozen in Time. Timeless…. you get the idea. Well, I wanted to create a series that perhaps captured the essence of these things, in relation to human emotion. And so my Time series was born. I know in my heart what each of them means, but I did not name them anything specific, so that the viewer could make up their own mind as to the meaning of each piece. I think that is something unique to every individual. So…my heartfelt thanks for continuing to watch and support my artistic endeavors. It feeds the fire that burns and inspires. / Aimee

Inspired by one of those mechanical solar system things, an “Orrery” I believe. / Either way, I thought it made for a cool design. :) Dark t-shirt version.

My little droogy droog…
mixed media on watercolor paper inspired by the book “a Clockwork Orange” its just furthering the idea of the human being as little more than a mechanism, something that can be wound up like a clock.
It’s A Wind Up! / You’ve seen those comedy chattering teeth, now here’s the Daddy! Process: / The tee: /
I love seeing the inner sytem of a clock or watch. So perfectly matched to work properly. I can’t tell you why this image made me think of this, but it did. :o) Created in Apophysis 3D Hack.
A clockwork Orange
A clockwork squid! Watercolour, ink, chalk pastel and metal leaf on canvas. I used my new airbrush on this one. Shiny bits: /

You may recognize this as a piece from my “Time” series. This is actually one I reworked for Artfest 2009 – which had a ‘Sea Monster’ theme! I have signed, limited edition metallic print ones for sale – but would also like to sell these non-exclusive ones here. :D
An update of an old work. I’ve refreshed it just in time for Steamcon, in Seattle at the end of the month! To see the original version, and find resource credits – look HERE “Temperance is simply a disposition of the mind which binds the passions..” Aquinas / —-—-—-—-——-
A Steampunk variation on one of my “Time” pieces – this time created for Steamcon ‘09, in Seattle. A one-of-a-kind signed canvas texture print of this went to the highest bidder there! Stock credit links to be added ASAP
