RefleKtive Corrected Contempt

Some drawings and paintings really suck so they get discarded until they get repurposed. Like this one ... the drawing was okay but that was it ... so I got heavy with the pen and pounded out some animosity towards the memory of things best left forgotten ... and here we are.

OHK ... we're all ohk

Reworking and tweaking older drawings and paintings that needed tweaking and reworking. This skull is sitting on a mostly black background with orange trim. That orange is way more vibrant in real life.
And that's OHK

Know Second ...

Who knew it would be so easy?
Just do it ... just fucking do it and see what happens.
There's always a second option but that doesn't mean the first choice is wrong. If it doesn't work out all you've spent was time, but if it works then BOOM! You're golden.
Even if the worst happens, you'll learn something for next time.

Unless this is the zombie apocalypse, then the worst is getting bit and dying a slow agonizingly painful death only to become a zombie as well.

So stop second guessing yourself and get started, and no matter what happens, don't give up.
Everyone that matters to you wants you to succeed.
Easy

Getting a Head

As some of you might know already, I've become addicted to drawing and painting skulls. This is one of the more recent skull paintings I created. It's mostly acrylic paint on a 5"x5" piece of 300lb cold pressed watercolor paper.

I really like how there are just 2 colors that define this skull ... and for some reason my black signature at the bottom actually makes the rest of the painting pop out a bit. You see there is darkness without any black. Does that even make sense?

Anyways ... this skull is up for auction ... the starting bid is $10 and shipping is free in Canada and the USA. Please place your bid in the comments below, and bid in full dollar increments please. The bidding ends when I get to the library again tomorrow (around 11am Central Time) , payment via paypal.me/byronrempel within 24 hours of a winner being declared.

Have a great day everyone, happy bidding, lets see who wants a skull in the mail :)

Skullady

In the days of my skull drawing addiction, which is on going btw, I was inspired by my wife and drew this. My skull skills have improved since this drawing :)

I really enjoy skulls and I really don't like the churchy types knocking on my door, causing my dog to start barking which made me nearly spit out my coffee and scared the shit out of Felix the Cat who hid under the bed for an hour.
This image is for those 2 boys that a grumpy old man yelled "AWWGETOUTTAHERE!" too.

I gave you a story to tell and you gave me inspiration for this piece :)
everybody wins!

Melted and Remade

For a while in December I was on a major skull drawing and painting kick, partly inspired by the late great Jed Leiknes, who sadly, suffered from depression which caused him to take his own life just before christmas. His death hit me harder than I expected, and I didn't even know the guy ... had only just started following him on instragram a few months prior, but damn he had talent.

I am now starting to paint skulls on canvas, this is one of my first 8x10 mixed media on stretched canvas
It's up at http://thehorde.storenvy.com for $75, includes trackable shipping

SCREAMING

I've been drawing and sketching and practicing skulls a lot lately. I've been making good progress, this being one of my best skull drawings to date, and the only one with a lower jaw so far. I really like how this one is coming out of the darkness and heading towards what could be the light ... but it might just be a little less darkness.

I have made the original available in my store: http://byronrempel.bigcartel.com/

SKULL!!

I have been on a bit of a skull drawing kick lately and this is a pretty neat little skull I made on an art card. It's listed in my store, and here's a direct link.

Are you a fan of skull art? I've looked at what some people can do and it is simply amazing, I have a lot to learn ... which is awesome.

And now I'm out of things to say ... I need to start making my blog more interesting , fill it with wit and facts and witty facts that are factually witty. Anyone reading this? Any suggestions or anything you want to see? Let me know .......................... <- dots="" lots="" of="" p="">

the E stands for EVIL

To add more content to my youtube channel, I painted up the amazing E Blake and recorded the process. You can see the video here. While you're watching, be sure to subscribe.

wooden stare

Took another plaque, this one a little smaller than the last, and painted a skull of sorts on it.

Total size is probably 3"x7" at the widest parts, and a quarter inch thick maybe.

Needs hanging hardware on the back.

Nearly all my originals are available, inquire if interested.

skull

I painted up a little skull for the most recent Two Sentence Horrors story.

It's 2.5"x3.5" mixed media on watercolor paper artcard.

Own the original here.

skull green ... when life gives you lemons

take those lemons and throw them back at life.

Then paint.

This is the result of to much green left on the brush and a need to not waste a damn bit of it.

After the green was smeared around I thought yellows and reds would look good too. Not sure what possessed me to add the blue but I like it.
