Welcome to the other side of the multiverse, where the art from the other side of the universe resides. My personal blog, which is two parts art and three parts nonsense, can be found at other-side-of-the-universe.tumblr.com. Occasionally I post what I consider to be tasteful nudes of women. I tag them as NSFW when I do, though, so tumblr savior should keep you safe.

I just got to the other side of the universe and the art is AMAZING. Bad jokes aside, keep the good work~

Someone finally made a joke about my URL! :D

Thank you for both sentiments!

Pretty weird piece I did in figure drawing tonight.
I did a wash of green ink (which separated in some places to blue and yellow), and then I did three sketches with magenta ink. I pulled off some of the color with a rag, and then I went in for a final figure drawing with my trademark burnt umber ink. I added some highlights with white paint to help pull it out of the background a bit more.
Different from my normal stuff, but I ended up being really proud of it. The finished painting is about 16 x 20, I believe.

Painting progress — mostly done at this point, but I’m think I’ll have a few changes to make when I pick it up again (on Thursday, would be my guess).

7 hours of (mostly) nonstop painting.

Life Observed from the Other Side of the Universe: Art and Euphoria

other-side-of-the-universe:

It has gotten to where spending hours on something, especially something that is extremely difficult (acrylic painting - for me, anyway), and then finishing that something has become my ultimate source of euphoria.

I’ve had people tell me that art isn’t work because it’s fun, and none of those…
