  • watercolour painting (of Natalie Makarova)

  • This expressive sculpture comes to life under the the Miami Sun.

  • A boy having the time of his life in the bath. No need for toys – just the pounding of little fists in the water is all he needs to find exultation

  • On Zazzle / On DeviantART / ArtRage 2.5 and graphics tablet / There are many stories of dragons. Wild, blatant fancies and ancient legends of fire and eggs, mist and flame. Of taloned mosters and reptilian mages. Of cunning wyrms and low, crawling beasts. Some tell of mute, ferocious animals, children of earth and flesh. Others proclaim sly creatures of darkness, lurking venom and cruelly slitted eyes. Yet others laud the gracefully scaled spirits of the air, the bright and majestic roaring flames, the shining talons, the clever speeches and shining hoards… This is not one of those. This is the Child of the Sea, who melds with water, and flows with the waves. This is the Daughter of Salt, shining and precious, invisible in the vast seas and yet hidden in every drop. This is the seadragon, who brings the water to life with her turbulence, creating kinspirits from the froth and foam of her passing, and from sleek shining water, and the glimmer of sunlight on a droplet forms her scales… / This is the leaping splash that startles sailors, the dancing krakenmaid flying out with the spray. Old, old and deep as the seas, resting in the dark waters before the first fish formed from her tiny kin, and young, young and new formed with every wave. Everywhere and nowhere, she leaps up, dragging forth wings out of waves, dancing on the swells, whirls and rises and falls, crashing water, shining scales… You will never see her. Be grateful for a quiet life. ArtRage 2.5 and graphics tablet / About 10 hours. Dragonlings slightly easier to see in the WIP but more have been added since. Have you seen them? / Lineart This was one of my longest and I enjoyed it a lot, and learnt a lot, and …well, there’s a part of my head still rushing around in the waves there

  • Slipping.
    by clarkey

    They looked at each other and smiled in anticipation: / They were in for a wild ride!

    This one was inspired, in part, by this – open another window and listen while you read. It isn’t necessarily what seems obvious! / / You must decide what the ending is before you get to the last screen-load – no cheating!, but it is open to interpretation. There are approximately 3½ screenloads.

  • A rework of an older project; the original was inspired from two sources – the first was a creative challenge ‘inspired by music’ and the song in question was John Mellenkamp’s R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.. The second was a newspaper photo of Venus Williams jumping in the air celebrating after winning some tournament (I have no idea which.) I think I reproduced her pose fairly well, minus the tennis racket in her right hand, of course. The original, since it was part of a forum challenge, was small to stay within the limits of that forum: 600×600px and therefore not big enough to upload anywhere else. This version has been re-created almost from scratch. Lots of kinda-cliché Americana here; but I’m still happy with the way everything fit together. Hope you enjoy!
