The Violence of Men
Yip, it's a dragon and an elf with a little bad man in the upper left corner. It's been fucking forever since i posted anything but here we have it, this huge damn piece that had to be scanned in four parts and pieced together (hence the dark lines cross sectioning it) in a program. The damn thing took me 5 nights because of the scales and the rocks but it came out in the end. It's pen, completely pen and a bit of spit to smear the pen to get the effect i wanted for the rocks. As for the title, well, it was the bad man in the left corner that hurt this peaceful dragon and it is the female elf who loved the dragon. I figured, why not give it a meaningful title, so bada bing bada boom there it be. For giftmas i was given this fantastic book on dragon drawing (none of that silly circle, cylinder, triangle shit in it) and i was inspired. I also hit the jackpot with my love giving me a $150 Micheal's art store gift card so i got a bunch of giant paper and some canvases and paint. I'm going all out. My next post will probably be a very nude Rupert Everett with a skull in front of his crotch so stay tuned. Yeah yeah, so that Rupert picture is from a photo, i need to learn the better aspects of anatomy and that picture hit the nail on the head. So until next time minions, until next time, bwahahaha.

Behold the Colossal Glory of Willy!
Here's the little beast, clocking in at a big 50lbs, all muscle and he's only 3 and a half months old. The breeders told us he was an alpha male and holy shit were they right. Thankfully we've got experience with large breed dogs. Our great dane, back in the 90's, ate the christmas tree lights off the christmas tree and came out fine. This little guy at least hasn't done anything that major...yet. We still need to decorate for halloween, i can see Willy kidnapping a ghost and eating it lol.

Crazy Dog!
My puppy is nuttier than a damn fruitcake. The little beast is everywhere all the time! Art is an impossibility right now as i must watch this puppy 24/7 to keep him from getting himself into serious pickles. Being a Saint Bernard, he's huge right now. He's only 3 months but is roughly the size of an adult Norwegian Elkhound and man can he use his size to his advantage. Yesterday he stole a loaf of bread off the table and ran through the house with it. Our little William is quite fond of shoes, stuffed animals, and the cat. When we first got Willy he played nice with the kitty, now he grabs the poor cat by the neck and drags him across the room. He does not do this out of hate or wanting to murder the cat, he's just a very large puppy playing like puppies do (only on a very large scale). There were a couple of squirrel skeletons in the yard (where they came from is still somewhat of a mystery) and Willy decided he wanted to eat their skulls, which was both grody and dangerous because we didn't know what they died from and their teeth wouldn't digest good for him. He's gone through 3 compressed rawhide chew bones, lost 2 front teeth and has new teeth coming in.
Willy is a sassy puppy but is very very intelligent. He uses his intelligence against us. We tell him no, he barks at us. It will go back and forth like that for a while; "No!" Bark "No!" Bark, etc. Eventually he stops barking back and just snaps his mouth shut. He's extremely adept at finding things he's not supposed to touch. Despite all his crazy antics, he sits on command, lays down on command, and is housebroken. He enjoys playing tug (though we cannot allow him to win because he's already very alpha in a lot of ways and him winning would make it worse). The vacuum is something he loves, he barks at it and chases it. The hose attachment is his favourite, we kind of sword fight with it. I poke it at him and he bites at it.
On walks Willy is great and can navigate like no other dog. He stops every so often to map out where we are and uses his mental navigation to lead us back to the car or the house without our help. He's afraid of and baffled by strangers and enjoys sitting and staring at them until they pass when we go for walks. When new people come in the house he hides behind the chair (he used to hide behind the couch but can't fit back there anymore). Other dogs don't give him issues, he likes most of them and most of them like him. He did get a beat down from a German Shepherd/Elkhound mix, but he jumped on her which instigated it. He came out fine but she gave herself a boo boo in her own mouth. Both were fine with each other after that. Hopefully the next visit with her goes better.
I love this puppy, he's fantastic. A hell of a lot of work but a great dog :D
I'll post pics and maybe some art here in the next couple weeks. I was only able to get this post in because he's sleeping in the chair right now. Well, until later, may you all have long days and pleasant nights. :D

Saint Bernard Puppy!
I Love This Puppy SOOOOOOOO MUCH! We went to pick up the little lad last night and i took this picture a couple hours later. He's adjusting quite well and just loves the cat. Thankfully the cat loves him too. They hit it off immediately. We named this little bundle of fantasticness William aka Willy/Billy/Mr. Sassy Puppy (because he bites your finger when you point and say "no" to him). He's a great little guy and full of beans. So far he's only pissed on the floor once, but that was ok. A little pee never hurt anything :D
He does prefer going poo and pee outside and it works out quite nicely. He also seems to enjoy chewing soft things like couch cushions and chairs. So far he's pulled a rug into the living room and is well into his rawhide Dingo Bone. Ah, i must be off, the little fella will be waking soon.

The Wind That Shakes the Barley
The Wind That Shakes the Barley 'twas inspired by the Irish ballad of the same name. 'Tis a sad but lovely song. Dead Can Dance do a fantastic rendition of it. So yeah, i got this idea in my head because of the song and went to work on it immediately. Drawn, painted and completed today. Painted on cardboard with acrylics. The song really is quite lovely and i recommend a listen if ya ever get to playlist.com

Porn Referrals
Guess what fuckin happened to me today...I was checking the stats for this blog and it said one of the referring sites was "rokettube.me". I go to the referring sites to see what they are and shit, and well i'll be damned this one turned out to be a porn site. Haha, roket tube...i get it now, but i didn't before i clicked it. I'm anticipating a spyware invasion on the computer now...anywhoo... No art posting lately. I've done two pieces but both are rather mundane, a cartoon puppy face and a bob ross landscape done in pastel. Just practice things more or less. I may post them eventually, i may not.
I've been too busy with this bloody Intex pool set up to do more art lately. Had to level the ground for the pool, which is brutally unlevel. Had to lay the uprooted sod in a new area...more or less relandscape the backyard completely. I reckon i'll get back to art in a few weeks here. Until then, may you have long days and pleasant nights.

Apocalypse BITCHES!!!
Hells yeah, it's apocalypse time!
So anyone else hear about the second coming of the Australian Jesus (and his wife Mary Magdalene)? Well if you heard about that you probably heard how a big group of frightened christers thinks the apocalypse is going to happen today at 6pm. Now for the biggie, guess what my loyal legions? I am the Anti-christ. Hasatan and i have been plotting the downfall of humans for a good long time and he decided it was time for me to break out and just scream it to the world that i was here to harvest all your souls. So who wants to have a nice large mansion on the shores of the lake of fire? I can hook up a bunch of people. There will be fire-skiing, fire-tubing, and best of all, you don't have to wear life vests for any of this because you'll already be dead. Join hasatan and i today and enjoy a nice relaxing eternity long vacation from all the goody two shoes.
