Here I have what amounts to the better part of a Saturday night/Sunday morning. This is for my Typography class, despite the deficiency of text -or as we in the industry call: copy. The illustration portion came to me, quite fittingly, in a dream during a trip to Chicago, as I was reading Volume 3 in the Absolute Sandman collection. The painting isn’t as strong as I’d hoped, but better than I expected. It has sort of a Picasso feel; but fans of the series know that he’s been known to inspire artisits, so maybe Picasso’s style was inspired by him.

This is a really nice piece man! Although I would move the text over so it’s not overlapping the left edge.

hey margin I haven’t really talked to you in a while and had no idea that you could do this kind of stuff. I found your site from your bio on xbox. This piece really stood out to me prolly because I’m in to the whole sci-fi thing. The mars one was also very entertaining it kind of reminded me of halo which isn’t very suprising because most things do. Hopefully we can catch up sometime on live cause I haven’t played with you in forever. I hoped you did well on this and good luck in the future I think your pretty good at it.
