What a wattle brings is a secret scent that sings across the warm and winter breeze so crisp that it could clutch the seas by it's very sensitivities. What a wattle sings is tales of the sunlight caught in no small form and those that brought a smaller joy then sung songs lost on storm weather and a bright golden life led by header: to whom it may concern I have a fresh aspect and life that's value is deserved. What are wattle things but happiness lived and resembling a thought to which a hermit brings when confronted by his sweet loneliness that empty first kiss from his loft a perch of subtle sits the naive man who gives a bit of resistant thought to his own best friend within himself... I love you @jazz.spirinium. Happy birthday. (at Mullumbimby)

Some goofy pixel art is always a good thing to take the edge off your Monday. ((Almost a little self portrait too)) learning pixel art in photoshop is a real treat if not a little challenging just because it is so much less limited then software I am used too... which is a weird right? #pixelart #gaming #gameart #pixel #art #selfportrait #portrait #digital #moustache #messy #quickdraw #artist #adobe #photoshop #wip #practice (at Mullumbimby)

Some work I was putting into personal text transitions for a mock up a while ago. The amount of life I could get out of the particle effects gives it such a magical feeling for such a simple effect! Excited to be branching out on instagram and showing off more of what I do! #film #motiongraphics #aftereffects #mockup #video #graphics #typography #wip #adobeaftereffects #adobe #filmmaker #test (at Byron Bay, New South Wales)

I really like this preliminary sketch I was working on that led to a digital piece I did a while back. It came out a bit different then how I imagined but I love these pen and ink portraits might even do some more tonight depending on how it all goes. #illustration #pen #ink #blackandwhite #woman #drawing #draw #sketch #sketching #shading #lineart #face #portrait #artist #art #design #freelance #sketchbook #ballpointpen #freehand #artwork (at Mullumbimby)

It rained on the day as people say upon our whole parade, while scrying high on mothers eye a pupil meets the mirror, the sea can meet the seer, a pulse across the page to match the burning sage, then wouldn’t give your bird a cage if your heart didn’t have one to match, so get woke snatch toke try not to let your heart get broke while you scream bloody silence, it’s straight up and down simple science the brain sits comfy in compliance bow down to your highness and read about a tedtalk based on a book hidden in a library nook that taught the depressed to cook, as if that could give their life another look maybe get a heart off the hook.........................(from the man who likes your moxie on a trade for word of mouths brutal shade, so don’t start with me about our parade...) #blackandwhite #robot #broken #character #concept #art #artist #illustration #writing #poem #sketch #sketchbook #drawing #draw #figure #comic #writer #ink #pen #blackink #ballpointpen #lineart #shading (at Mullumbimby)

"With a look that could shake the demons off your back. Stern, steely and made with love or care how could it be she knew not of all these little things that made her so strong? When carried with a prowess a kin to the lion or eagle she would speak of insecurity like it was her family and success like her burden. Perhaps her true power was to see through the fabric of these things and know that knowing her insecurity rather than rejecting it was a power and to not be defined by her success was too avoid the trap..." Loving the higher quality of this @byron_bound notebook it has been a game changer moving on from the stock standard notebooks I'm used too!!

"Unyielding, Margo stood a clear foot above everyone in a room. Hers was the motherly way in all things but her child was the colonies. She would stop at nothing to protect the unity of the citizens and the islands, in the face of everything the ideal world was still buried somewhere in the rust. Serving a broken machine was never an option and fostering the wayward children that crossed her way to fix it as she put it, grew her influence beyond her corner of the galaxy. Margo could open the heavens when her intent met her care, what would the screams of humanity be in the face of her love..." Another quick sketch on the new tablet and some more words, words and words. Ummm (insert more words here) getting stuck into after effects right now which is super exciting!! Love me some tasty free flowing after effects time hooweeee have a great day and do the best you can! #illustration #portrait #character #art #painting #digitalart #artist #illustrator #comic #concept #conceptart #drawing #sketch #microsoftsurface #writing #drafts #wip #practice #photoshop (at Mullumbimby)

"In those moments her home was the wind, moving and fluttering as a petal might stopping along the road but never for long. There had been another by her side, coaxing and coddling her through every challenge along the way, she had conquered them all but was she as she thought. Her most prominent problem ahead of her now was her doubts, leading a rebellion was a nice dream but starting one with a new set of eyes and nothing to build from was a treacherous and wicked path. Perhaps a mutant and a ghost could pull her from this long since forgotten path, a free thinking atonement with justice and humanity. Her family, the Colonies and every low down bottom feeder in the verse would see her and fear her in time. Until then she could only plot for her moment to strike at the head of the snake and hold her cards close..." I have been addicted to my new graphics tablet and PC today. This screen is so clear and responsive and I really feel like I can dig into my digital art more then I ever have been able to before. Painting in Photoshop has never been so easy and fun! I could really get used to this it's good to be a professional I spose is the lesson here... heaps of stuff to work on and I still need sleep!!

Preview part of the Fraqtur3s collection I have been working on in my spare time. I find photo manipulation to be the most rewarding and frustrating thing I do. I love it so much the results are so fun to find in the assets, but cutting stuff out pixel by pixel can drive me a bit mad... either way there is no way to stop now Fr4qtur3s launches... when it does haha projects for fun are fun! You are fun!

~"Determination"~ A willing obsession to dedicate oneself unequivocally to something, the key to a mind unrelenting. This power to lock horns with the bull inside for a victory against your self this impossible flame that make us beautiful, unique and unstoppable. To see through these eyes I know that my goal is simple, a wilful defiance of the mundane and obtuse only to kill the dragon that lives inside and stand by to survey the trophy you have fell. This is my determination sometimes joyous and exciting and often gruelling or defiant at best. So we fill in the lines and try to assemble words the best we can. Always pushing forward and beyond the troubles of our monster... the master would find you as a hammer and the client as a compass, but as it is in my mind at least, I am a galaxy collapsing in on itself as to build enough pressure too shoot these stars across the sky. I'm painting with a brush of myself and my hairs getting messy... Their calling out the matadors, stoking these flames, rallying up their best knights, mounting these filled in lines above their mantels, watching it all collapse and catching these shooting stars!! Yet as my everything comes and goes I know I remain static and determined to prove nothing wrong. Its my only home. My heaven and my hell. ...Welcome to the Creatures Inn... •+•+•+•+•+•+• Finished up this newest piece today (well I finished the drawing yesterday) like a good boy anddddd here it is. This is a pretty simple trial of this new style based on the art in MGS:Peace Walker's art I want to work on more. Probably going to look for real people to practice with before taking it further into the professional side of things but I love these results. I hope you love them too!! And if ya do maybe check the link in my bio so you can see the final prints of the things I make! Umm that's sorta all for now my battery is about dead so no time for editing or anything and I'll see ya soon! •+•+•+•+•+•+• #ink #pen #design #art #designer #artist #portrait #face #practice #blackandwhite #inktober #determination #illustration #pattern #tribal #MGS #metalgearsolid #bigboss #nakedsnake #shading #shapes #ballpointpen #lineart #sketch (at Byron Bay)

So I've been practicing new stuff trying to pull together some portraits in this like blocky style thing so here is a little in progress of what I'm working on for my next #inktober post! I am pulling together stuff for the end of the month and hopefully I might even catch up (spoiler alert probably not). I'm writing so much right now that I have been feeling spent creatively but switching it all up has reinvented me across the board in a big way so that's exciting. Hope you are having a great day and all your dreams are growing and mutating into galaxies of wonder... love you, Avi xo. #illustration #shading #blackandwhite #wip #inprogress #practice #sketch #sketchbook #ballpointpen #ink #drawing #art #portrait #character #face #draw #artist #illustrator #lineart (at Mullumbimby)

"Dank chill" Danriel was many many things, as all souls his complexity and eccentricities made him in a word unique. To find his way to an assistant arch angel position was remarkable with only two millennia under his belt he was one of the youngest angels ever to achieve the position only beaten out by: Sirius the brave, Clementine the faithful and of course Mark. • Unfortunately the credentials of one Danriel P. Morgan could be defined in a second more interesting word, flagrant. Danriel was born on earth in 1986 to a wealthy family allowing him certain comforts and indulgences in his life. Thusly certain moral quandaries within the span of his life could raise certain accusations against the quality of his credentials. As it stands Danriel true name Daniel Smyth was in life a sexual deviant, drug addled night rat and above all his sins a cold coffee drinker. • Although now genderless Danriel was firmly against wearing the "floaty sheet dress" of his compatriots as he put it. With an amount of bargaining and preaching the inequity of a heaven without freedom, Dan found himself in possession of his old favourite shirt. Dan's favourite shirt was homemade, original and comfortable making it an objectively cool shirt by definition. However the fact of the matter was that in a haze of his standard sub par cognition Dan had thought it would be cool to scrawl "dank chill" across his chest in black sharpie while wearing his favourite white shirt. These modifications would go on to be Dan's favourite garment and icebreaker within the confines of his limited social circles in life and also in death. • With a limited understanding of his situation and surroundings Dan "Danriel" Smyth couldn't conceive of the prime deceit he was performing above the clouds. Unwittingly his favourite philosophy in life "hakuna matata" in this new context had given him an edge over those who felt strongly about the position. In contrast to his simple chill way of life all other candidates where made out to be narcissists only interested in the title, thus to the frustrations of many the bar was set so low that even a hint of passion for the work could be deemed prideful, and a sin.
