Experiment 131: Pig or The Ghost of Motivations Past

Created in Artrage 2.5 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Decided it was time to play around in Artrage again, it was a while since the last time I did that. And after some playing around this creature started to appear.

While on the topic of Artrage I've got to say that I'm really looking forward to the next version that's just been announced, sounds really interesting.

Experiment 130: Underwater scene

Created in Photoshop CS4 using a Wacom Intuos 3

Have been working on and off on this for some weeks now, and while there are some things I'd probably do differently in case I'd start all over I'm satisfied with it the way it is so now I post it here :-)

Experiment 129: Purple and gold mask

Mask created in papier maché.

Experiment 128: Split Personality

Some plaster sculptures. The above was begun like eight years ago, but I didn't finish it until today. The below was created a couple of years ago, but I like it more. I have some more things I'm working on though, and wanted to finish the above before continuing on with new things.

Experiment 127: Mother of cities

Created using my camera, Photoshop CS4 Extended and my Intuos 3

Another example of seeing things... I took an object, photographed it, and manipulated the image a bit (adding the sky) and now it's something completely different.

Special Experiment: Coloring a flower...

This is a bit special, though it might not look too special compared to some of the images on here... The thing is that I've not come up the idea for this image myself, it's based on a drawing by a friend of mine, Amish, who drew this: http://img194.imageshack.us/i/drawingforrhods.jpg/ and since I found it kinda intruiging I asked him if I could try and color it. And the above image is the result.

Experiment 126: Dancing petals

Created in Photoshop CS4 Extended

Another "happy accident", or perhaps not all that accidental, a lot of fun experimenting before I got to this though. (If anyone is interested I can provide a bit more detailed description ;-) )

Experiment 125: Waiting for the storm

Created in Photoshop CS4 Extended using a Wacom Intuos 3

After seeing a tutorial I got inspired to create a drawing, and this is the result. As I really haven't done much like this I'm really satisfied with it. I want to add that I've "cheated" a bit when creating the lines, I took a photo of myself and traced which I used as a basis. Naturally I've edited the lines a bit, I don't have that kind of beard etc. I recommend clicking the image to see the larger version as some details are lost in this smaller image.

Experiment 124: It flashes by

Created in Adobe Flash CS4

As a continuation on my last post I bring you this (very) simple flash file. It's my first attempt at creating something in Flash, so please be gentle on me :) Feel free to guess what it is I'm working on in this project, though I guess later posts will make it far easier (I'm deliberately only showing things which doesn't really give away anything). No prices, but it could be fun to be the one who guessed right ;-)

Experiment 123: Bright memories of the future

A digital photograph enhanced with the help of Photoshop CS4 and a Wacom Intuos 3

It's been a while since the last experiment, but this is just the first of several images of a bit larger experiment... There's more to come in other words. And just to clarify, the image is not only an experiment in itself, but the subject matter is a bit of experimenting for the future...
