But when you’re an artist, I think there’s a struggle.
The picture above was actually edited in Adobe Photoshop. One of my favorite music albums of all time is Something Corporates "North" and the cover was created in the same light with the actual picture being masked by a few like colors as if it were painted that way. The picture, for those wondering, is actually me receiving a trophy for winning a pillow fight tournament. It's a roadside traffic cone.
I love going on urban exploration trips, and this picture is the graffiti over the entrance to a satanic temple in New Jersey. I used sumopaint for this one, and I used the negative of a half-tone scheme with a squared pattern. I may change it though, because it doesn't capture the writing on the wall, which says, "You're Never Coming Back."
This is from another urban exploration trip I recently went on. It's the road sign on Shades of Death Road. I can't seem to remember the scheme I used in sumopaint, but it wasn't the negative. I'll keep looking.
This the outside of the satanic temple, which is actually located in a viaduct, which is a hollowed bridge with catacombs and rooms inside. I'm still playing with this, so I'll post a new version before class on Tuesday.
