The above features Jiansu of the artist’s cyan universe. She has gloves on, but her hands are also stained with blood. The armlet on her is a symbiote.
This is a rework of an older piece done two years ago (where there was a guy with Jiansu, and the background was full of fluffy clouds. In the artist’s own words: “it was kinda mushy”).

February 20, 2009 I will try to update when i can [if I had a clone of myself, I’d definitely be on to it!] — I am currently wrapping up my third book, so it’s going to be a rather intense 1.5 weeks. My deadline (self-imposed) was March 09 — I think I can just about hit it.
I’ve also been writing/sending out a bunch of poems & short fiction lately [have gotten 10 accepted which I suppose is better than nothing]. I’m as hell-bent as i was at the beginning, of being a published novelist. So yeah, pardon me if I am extremely zapped more often than not as time goes by [for the moment].

February 2, 2009 I had to take down a post today (at the artist’s request) — so here’s something very different instead.
I know they aren’t fantasy or “Art” related — but eh, variety is the spice of life…
1. Techtonik / Korean Costco [really good dance moves]
2. Get Down Make Love / Queen! [NIN did a cover; both are rockin’]
