Poser resource for figure sketches
Thursday, May 29th, 2008
This is a great resource for folks who don’t have Poser and need reference poses of the human figure. Grid views and all.
Makes me want to grab a fresh copy of Poser and start playing again. I used the first few versions of Poser in the late ’90′s, it seems to have improved a lot since those days.

The highest price paid at auction for a work of art by a living artist, and he’s one of my favorites!
Can’t really find a larger version of the painting, will add it once it surfaces. I love seeing his brushwork.
Here’s a video from the sale:

Sunflowers and Self-Portraits
Tuesday, January 29th, 2008
I found this play on Van Gogh’s style below at Pizdaus, which is a fun site for interesting pictures of all sorts.
I have no idea where it comes from, what context it was made in or for. It’s just such a great image, I had to share…
