| Now
this is one of my personal favorites. I really enjoyed how I was
able to apply several layers of watercolor and bring out some great
blending and shading of the color. I was largely impressed with
the art direction in Street Fighter 3: Third Strike, and
thought Capcom did a bang-up job with the look with its heavy comic-book
style. Hey, whatever, I'll steal inspiration from just about anywhere.
I
really enjoy the bright color tones and variety from the corners.
The Liquid Paper centers it all, with all that violent action slashing
about. On the B-Side (not pictured here, unfortunately), I attached
a number of name tags and wrote my thoughts on my favorite Bob Dylan
albums. I think this was something that I put together the night
before an art show at a Minneapolis night club called The Lounge.
I skipped out on sleep in order to finish everything on time, but
it was worth it.
Trivia
freaks will note the Prince aften frequents The Lounge, but I honestly
don't know if he ever had a chance to check out my paintings. Of
course, just when would he get that chance? You can't just wander
around a crowded night club if you're Prince. Especially in Minneapolis.
After him, Minnesota's most famous celebrity is, what, Jesse Ventura? |
