The Death of Thumbelina

I don't tend to make super sensitive cutesy pictures.  Granted, many seem cutesy, but if you look carefully, most of my images are slightly F***ed up.  Recently I had an idea to do some "Fucked Up Fairytales".    This was my idea for how Thumbelina dies.  What a way to go.  There are some changes I have to make on this particular picture, but only minor cosmetic things.

Star Wars: A New Hope

When Star Wars first came out I was quite young, but this was the poster I saw everywhere during that time and it was what made me really want to see the movie and would stare at this forever while my mom shopped.  This movie had everything.  There was the young hero, Luke, with his shirt open all sexy like, holding a big glowing rod.  It had a princess that everyone thought needed rescuing, but who in all reality kicked ass with the best of them.  Finally, there was the big bad in his amazing floating space station that looked like a moon and his ability to kill people from a distance.   All this sparked every bit of my vast imagination as it still does to this day.  

Star Wars Cats

The Star Wars movies & cartoons are probably my favorite movies/shows of all times.  The Star Wars Universe is for sure my favorite sci-fi universe...it's just so cool!  I think the notion of the force and lightsabers were what cemented this for me as a young child and has continued throughout my adulthood.  The best of the Star Wars worlds....Star Wars: The Clone Wars.  It has been distilled into the very best stories and character development of all the franchises.  If you haven't seen it, check it out, you won't be disappointed.

The Destruction of Snowkyo

I used to read a massive amount of Calvin and Hobbes when I was a child, and this is somewhat inspired by some of the panels I used to roll on the ground laughing at.  Bill Watterson is a genius of the comic strip art form and one of my all time favorite cartoonists.  Also, this is inspired by how I view myself walking around the world.  Why would I view myself like this you say...because I am very tall and clumsy, thus I destroy stuff constantly.

Sea of Love

This is a concept I came up with while watching underwater science shows.  One was on the life of pearl divers who use no tanks or snorkels to collect pearls, just their ability to hold their breath for long spans of time.  I decided to put representations of me and my boyfriend in the scene. As in the picture, I have found the real treasure of my life, my boyfriend.  Again, I couldn't help putting a Star Wars reference in the background.

Stark 2 Stark

How could I pass up putting two characters with the same last name in the same picture.  I decided to put Tony Start (Iron Man) and Ned Stark (Game of Thrones) together in a bar so Ned can tell Tony his sad tales of woe.  If anyone noticed, I put them in Moe's Bar from the Simpsons.  I have a sickness I think! LOL.

Murica

I moved to Canada almost 13 years ago from the USA...the land of guns and ignorance.  After being deprogrammed by the Canadian citizenry, I have a much different view of my birth country.  It isn't the same place of hope it was when I was growing up.  It has turned into something strange and, qutie frankly, scary.  This picture pretty much says everything about the United States these days...GUNS & FLAGS!
