Non-fanart commencing! Some of these pictures are pretty wide/long, so I'll just post a couple. Anyway, this is some of the other art stuff I do.

Digital stuff
A series of digital paintings related to music synaesthesia

If you like them, I can always share some more. I've got all kinds of stuff.
 
Nice work, miss. You should post more of your stuff.

Offtopic question: Why women players do like Barney so much?
 
I thought Kaptain H was a guy?

Anyways... wow, great stuff... Those walruses look so snuggly!
 
I dig your stuff. The white cat is especially good.

I have to say though, I can't look at the second panel of your first picture without cracking up, because that brachiosaur looks so phallic. And what's next to him? A shirtless cowboy. Was that intentional, the implications of that picture?

Hah, yeah. Well, when I first thought of it, I didn't have gigantic penosaur in mind, but every attempt I made to make it less phallic only made it more so. So I just went with it.
 
I think it's hilarious. The image can stand on its own without the other two panels (really, it dilutes the picture because one is so funny and the other two are just pretty scenes).

It's not supposed to be a penii??
 
Shh... :cheese:
 
nice work, the dinosaur one makes me think of a creepy smiling erect penis. :p
 
All right, here's a few more pictures. Regretfully, no phallosaur this time.

This one's long, so sorry about the scroll. It's a 180 degree stitched panorama of some of the Route 222 farmland near my university.

Another Chinese theme, which was a reference for a series of drawings I did for a studio class, but I actually really liked the photo by itself.

And thanks for the earlier comments, I appreciate it!
 
awesome stuff, specially like the cat.

edit: this is using no reference images, right?
 
Great stuff! I like the close-up black and white cat, really cool.

The catgirl was just from my imagination, although sometimes I will work from my photos as references. And then there's life drawing, which is from observation.

Thanks! I got that cat recently, and he's always striking awesome poses for me.

Yup.
 
i have to say though the chicken thing is the cowboy pic looks like a penis
 
Phallasaur is awesome.

And so is everything else. Great A++ will buy from again.
 
Your work is awesome. This thread is awesome. Great artwork, plus many lols.
 
To be completely frank, if you made something poster worthy, I'd pay money for a large print.
 
sexy shit cap'n! you have synesthesia too? that's awesome.
 
Pfft, everybody and their mother's dog claims to have synesthesia.
 
Good point. People think it makes them the mans.

*on topic edit - Kaptain-H is most excellent. The BlackandWhite cat close up especially was choice.

Truth.

Just because you associate colors with some things doesn't mean you have it. You'd be very lucky to have it.

Isn't there a test somewhere?

Honestly, I wouldn't say that someone is necessarily lucky to have it. I get very specific colors in my head with musical tones, and have perfect pitch. I don't know if the color association is the reason for that, but it never did me any good. When I was a kid, I seriously listened to no music whatsoever. Just the classical music I learned on the piano. I would analyze every single note and chord in my head when I heard the song on the radio, and it annoyed the crap out of me.

Also, transposed music makes my head explode. But as for a synaesthesia test, I have no idea. I just know that perfect pitch can be tested.
 
trust me i have it. i taste sounds and colors, words/letters/numbers have colors, etc etc, it's a world of combinations. there is a way to test it veggies. sensory input in one center gives of input in another. that's the definition of it. if the letter k has a color to you, if the sound of a saw wave has a taste.. those are examples. they're not consistent between individuals, you cant say someone has wrong synesthesia. i think everyone has it

No... that's not synesthesia. As I stated in the other thread, that's just association by memory.

Synesthesia is a rare condition where two portions of the brain intersect. When color -> numerological synethesetes see a number, they also see see a specific color, like this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synethesia#Objective_verification
 
Which is exactly what I said. "is a neurologically based phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. "

You've misinterpreted the test.. Synesthetes don't hallucinate. The color is percieved as inherently linked with the symbol and affects the perception of it. For me, the number 3 doesn't -actually- appear as red (hallucination), but mentally it does and the two sensory inputs influence eachother. It's automatic for me and I can't imagine different symbols and sounds NOT having these characteristics, it's as natural as their original characteristics.

It's real enough for me, I have trouble with math because symbols such as 4 and 8 share exactly the same color which makes it hard to keep track of them; complex mathematical problems are a cacophony of sensory characteristics. It's also similar with music, I once nearly vomited because of the copper taste a microtonal track induced.

The case of brain portions intersecting is common within really creative people, there's been examples of the logical and creative pathways in their brains intersecting so they automatically exchange between both.

Lastly, when people tell you something about themselves, your first reaction shouldn't be to try and prove them wrong.
 
It's like that brilliant mathematician dude who Russell Crowe played as in A Beautiful Mind
 
wtf? you said you were on the pills. you'll have to take the alimony from my cold dead hands
