Works-in-Progress

These are long-term projects that are not yet complete, but further along in the creative process than sketches. Newest items are listed first.

2454997Another unfinished work, again a mermaid.

2454988Weary of the slow progess on the original drawing, I started redrawing on a new layer using a style inspired by Franklin Booth's illustrations. It's much quicker, but there is still the obstacle of my lack of motivation.

2454941I started drawing this mermaid and dolphin in May 2006, and is an attempt to portray a somehow ideal, overly-romanticised image of youthful love and lust; the male dolphin adopts an aggressivly animalistic posture over the relenting mermaid, but is depicted in an intentionally non-explicit manner that precludes the necessary violence of the act itself. On the surface, it retains the aura of innocence society associates with—and perhaps demands of, in spite of reality—dolphins, mermaids, and childhood.
