Ghost in the Hall

In this piece I chose to use a skewed background to further emphasize the discord brought about by the appearance of the ghastly spirit. Though the ghost actually seems fairly calm, doesn't she? Anyways the twisted world behind the ghost shows a strange vision

Not Dreary

I said not dreary!
In this picture I actually took advantage of the artifacting that saving as a GIF causes in MS Paint to create a unique effect.
On a related note Blogger apparently now knows how to work GIFs. I thought I would have to do it manually.

Dreary

Usually when I don't post for a while it's because I've started wasting my time on something elaborate that (a) like 2 of you guys would like, (b) isn't related to this site, or (c) I don't actually finish. This time though... I wasn't. I have just not been being creative. You know, reading books and things.
The dreary lack of Chicken Maker making Chickens is now concluded!

Penmanship

I have a laptop with a touch screen. I think I've mentioned this before. it's coming up today because I used one of those touch pens and abandoned each and every trick I generally use in the process of making these. I didn't use dump, I didn't even use outlines. I used the pen and I used the medium paintbrush in Paint. There were none of my usual flourishes and I think it went pretty well despite that.

Falling

As the great Sheriff Woody once said "That wasn't flying, it was falling with style." That doesn't make it any less impressive thought as far as I'm concerned.

Yet Another Rainbow

I have yet again gone to a set of chickens with each shown under a different hue along the color spectrum. It's fairly simple and it has a nice effect.
This is Yet Another Rainbow.

shwish

Shwish is a sound effect similar to but distinct from swish. Swish is like a basketball going right through, nothing but net. Shwish is a bit more swooshy that swish, but not all the way up to the swoosh or the even higher shwoosh. That all makes sense to you guys, right?
