Pretty nice stuff Nick, Wonder what your inspiration for the colored pencil one was?

Basically, it's about pretentious people with too much money and time.

Re: Members Art

I suppose there's a certain 'motif' that could seem confusing but one needs to keep in mind that over here, I'd be considered a bit of a radical politically. I sometimes use that symbol to represent attitudes and systems of a less extreme nature than those intended by certain other mid-20th century users. That symbol is for me, a far broader expression than just 'nazism'. Indeed, I have two glow-in-the-dark swastika coasters on my work bench. People who see them look at me funny until I explain that they're Buddhist symbols for male and female energy.

Re: Members Art

I decided to add some of my art. I do Pastel portraits as a summer job for money.

These are the first two I did as a project in sophomore year of high school (~4 years ago):


Self Portrait

Re: Members Art

As far as I can see the pictures isn't viewable for the public as they're on his G-Mail account.
