The Chris Brown Beat down Board game TV spot.

Ike Turner and Charlie Sheen present a nut bush of a winning idea to celebrate domestic abuse survivor Rhianna getting back with the guy who kicked her ass so hard she screamed for help to the cops. The purpose of the game is to start the timer, and try to roll a six as Rhianna has to keep one step ahead of Mr Browns fists and excuses. Whats that?. You rolled a five?.
Looks like someone is walking in to a door tonight.
The 2012 Grammy performing ass kicking singer has twelve hilarious excuses recorded that provide hours of entertainment for the whole family.
Your son will love knowing its cool to smack his girlfriend about, because his idol does it too. Your daughter just might learn the handy survival skills from this game when her low self esteem and mixed messages from celebrities lead her in to her own real life Chris Brown lifetime adventure.
Charlie Sheen head comes free, with the option of going through those fashion and celeb magazines to find his Rhiannas. Old Charlie has beaten up a fair few women in his day, so you can bond with your kids while finding his old victims.

The manufacturers reccomend recording some screams from popular horror movies like Silence of the lambs and playing those as a separate track when Chris catches up to Rhianna. This adds a new depth to the game , were all about interactivity.

Have hours of fun, living the life of these celebrated women beating celebrities

Chris Brown Beatdown Boardgame.

Ike Turner enterprises presents:A Charlie Sheen designed product for all young men to enjoy.
The Chris Brown beatdown boardgame.  Start the clock and watch as the grammy performing woman beater shouts out twelve of his most pathetic excuses why he hits women.
The trick is to keep the tiny Rhianna model one step ahead of the clock by rolling a six. If you get round the board ahead of the clock you win and Rhiannas self esteem goes up, and no mixed messages are sent to teenage fans.
The game also comes with a separate Charlie Sheen head ,and you can have hours of fun cutting out all the images of  the five or so women hes whalloped and making them in to models for Charlie to chase, fists clenched around the board.
Great fun for the family, it also doubles as an alarm clock, but no one listens because the voice is famous.

What does ten seconds before your death feel like?.

Not many people capture the seconds before they die, but Phillapino politician Reynaldo Dagsa did. This photograph shows his murderer Michael Gonzales taking aim, seconds before he shot Dagsa  three times in front of his family  on New Years day 2011. The family man stopped to take a celebratory photo of his family when Gonzales crept up behind them to take aim.
 Gonzales, a car thief blamed Dagsa for a lengthy sentence.
What does ten seconds before your death feel like?, judging from the smiles of his family, it is happiness.

From happiness to tragedy in a second caught forever on a digital camera.

Jesus on a hot cake

Pencil layout for Good Friday piece.
In the centre we have Jesus Christ emerging from a hot cross bun, to his right is the Eater Bunny, and at the left is a shocked customer.
This piece is about a lot of themes, but the idea of people scoffing chocolate eggs and hot crossed buns while a man being tortured and murdered gives us a day off work seems worth investigating. What are you doing on the Easter break?.
I will either ink this, or layer it with pencil and correct the major errors.
Apologies for the camera flare.

All your illusions. Illustrated poem.

Made this illustration based on the poems of
http://shermeanuhh.tumblr.com/
I drew forget me nots, with the ying yang symbol, since she writes a lot about her past and present. In that vein i also included symbols of fate from other cultures including Baron Samedhis veve (he is the Haitian God of death, but also change and renewal), the celtic rings, the four pillars of Islam among others. I drew the poet thinking of love, with a lover she described in the forgeround. The woman laying baack surrounded by plastic cups and tiaras was lifted direct from her poem, i contrasted her view that this was a childish view of love with the image of a curvy woman. I am always interested in why the human heart is spoken as a  source of emotio, when in reality all emotion is expereinced in the brain. But if im going to draw the heart, i draw it as it is, not as a cartoonish love symbol, but as a strong muscle, full of life.Like we are.
I tried to make the illustration hopeful, and positive .
I am thinking of painting it.

======================
Does anyone think i put too much detail in?. How is the imagery?.
Thank you for leaving comments.

Getting ripped off.

I am fairly sure anyone who has worked in freelance will be familiar with being taken for a ride. This has happened to me a lot of times. The kindly retiree who i spent hours on the phone with (at my own expense), who wanted me to illusttrate a childrens book about bears. After spending weeks on the drawings, in crayon and watercolour, at my own expense and scanning and emailing them to him. I waited for a response as to when he would send me the  script..and waited and waited. Phonecalls and emails were ignored and i assumed he was either dead or had taken what i had done for, initially, free and sent it to another artist.
Never do anything for free.
Unfortunatly i have this horrible habit of being a nice person,and do still do things for free.
I did a series of drawings for my boss and he promised to pay me. Money has yet to surface, despite the quality of my work.
I did a series of large crayon drawings for a community centre, working with loads of difficult kids with behavioural problems. Which believe me, is draining, when their fighting for the fifth time, or have drawn penises or breasts on the work. I never got paid for that, i didn't even get publicity photos.

People like drawings, they see it as a luxury, as a hobby. They do not see it as something they should pay for.

This rant came about because someone copied a drawing i did and posted it to their site, without asking me, or linking me or identifying me as the artist. This is really frustrating, because i am not rich , i am poor. And any sales i get are hampered by this lack of awareness of artists rights.

On a more positive note, i got an extension on my dissertation which means i might get a higher grade after all. My tutors still hate me, and it looks like when i finish ill be back sleeping in my freinds spare room in the ghetto, but if you hate your life....change your life.
And on that note, im going ot watch one more episode of Eastenders and bed.
