Chronomentrophobia

Chronomentrophobia

The fear of clocks or watches. This is the lord of time (in a way), on his right hand he has a dile dagger, on his left hand he has a spear, with a sand clock attach to a normal clock, and on his back 2 gears on his back. He was a watchmaker that got obsess with the watches that he sell, so he decided to attach them to himself.  Since then he is been trying to control and manipulated the time on his own freewill.

Clay experiments

These are some clay experiments that I did. I normally don't use clay because I rather stay with the 2Da art, but is good practice. The first picture is a human torso in a almost moving position. Picture number 2 is a little piece that I decorated randomly, and the last one is just a feet normal size. And sorry to take too long to update this.

Phobias

This week's pieces were inspired by some phobias.

Ophidiophobia

The fear of snakes, it's also the fear of their venom or the danger that this could involve. This character was developed in a lab. When an experiment that involved the subject and a snake, went wrong, this mutated guy lost his hands that were replace with 2 gigantic heads of snakes, and his feet that where substitute by a snakes tail. After the accident he escaped and start living in a swamp, where he became a predator, the only human characteristic that he possesses now is part of his face.

Spectrophobia

The fear of mirrors or of a broken mirror. People with this phobia can also be afraid of the idea of something coming out of the mirror or seeing something in the mirror besides their own reflection. This is also the fear of being watched from the mirror. The background of this character is: This women came out of a creepy and abandoned mirror house where she was murdered. No one ever found her body, but years later people reopened the house since then she started to attack innocent people because she wanted revenge for what people did to her. Her upper body is made out of broken mirrors, and some of the mirrors have hands sticking out of them. She also has a mask made out of mirrors as well with just one eye showing.

Pupaphobia

The fear of puppets and their unnatural movements. The signs on his chest and stomach symbolize the word puppet. Before being a puppet this man was a comedian at children's parties, but he got obsessed with the art of puppetry, so he decided to be his own puppet. Everybody was afraid of him. He was so frustrated that in an act of revenge, he started to transform everyone that was afraid of him into puppets. Ever since then he hides in any place where people perform their art. He also attacks any artist who doesn't perform a puppetry act.

Fake nature

This is my second still life drawing. It's called "fake nature," because everything in this drawing is fake; the plants are made out of wood and fiber, the pinecone is plastic, and the lizard is actually metal.  I accidentally used another kind of paper with a different texture than the one that I've been using, but at the end I made it work.

Check it out

Check the blog every week, I will try to make a different piece and post it on Friday and if it doesn't appear, wait for the weekend.

Sunset

This piece is a sunset. I did 50% in chalk and 50% in normal pencil colors. On the background you can see that there are lots of trees, but most of the plants are just grass (the lighter green). Most of the piece is orange to make it look like an actual sunset, I tried to make the sky, the water and the sun look similar so you could note the water is a reflection of almost everything. There is a little creek on the grass, and the other part that is brown is meant to be sand or some kind of earth, because it is the closest to the water. On the lower left corner, there is a boy and a dog enjoying the view.

Land art 0.5

This was my very first land art project before the sticks one. I did it in a creek starting under water and finishing above that level. It is totally empty on the inside. I used all kinds of stones from really tiny ones to gigantic ones on the bottom, but only the rocks make the piece stand by itself. I had about 2 hours to do this project and most of the time was gathering rocks and making it stand, because every minute at least one rock fell from the piece. There are probably about a hundred stones right there. Don't let the perspective fool you. Its a little more deep than you think it is.

Humanoid Beasts

My series was about humanoid beasts. It also shows the transition from black and white to color pieces.

This was my first piece. It's a spinosaurus with human legs/arms, and his right hand is human. I also wanted to make the body look a little bit deteriorated which is why there are some bones that are visible. I used pencil to draw and shade the whole body, and I used marker to make some parts a little bit more noticeable. But I used charcoal for the background. I did this piece in black and white  because the dinosaur is the most ancient animal of my series.

This was my second piece. It's a manta ray with human mouth, eyes and legs, and at the edge of the fin there are 3 small claws. On every colored part I used chalk pastel colors but instead of applying it directly, I made dust out of it and then applied it all around. There are some parts where instead of chalk I used normal color pencil, but the rest of it is black color or charcoal. On this piece I used color and blacks and whites. Remember what I said about the black and white to color transition? Well this is the middle piece - that's why some parts are with color and others with black and whites.

My third and last piece is a bird with a women's upper body and a face without nose and mouth. The green part below is green paint with some parts with lighter green. The mountains and the sky in the background are also chalk pastel. All the feathers that I drew were colored with color pencils. I chose these colors for a certain reason: the wings contain blue, yellow and green meanwhile the tail is red, yellow and orange. If you haven't figured it out, I am doing the representation of a color wheel that why the last combination is red hair blue feathers and a purple suit. I chose this piece to be the colorful one because of the feathers and the possibilities of combinations.
