I started using a Wacom tablet and Adobe Illustrator a few months ago, and wanted to practice drawing some portraits, so I illustrated some quotations from people I like. You can view the rest of them here: http://theoatmeal.com/blog/quotations
If I get 100,000 notes on this post, I will get The Oatmeal’s “Dreaded CatterWockey” tattooed on my arm. If you guys can get a girl a fluffy chicken, you can get me my tattoo! I have The Oatmeal’s permission for this. I asked him special. COME ON. I’M COUNTING ON YOU GUYS.
Reblog this post and this lovely lady will get the above picture tattooed on her arm.
Artist Laura Bifano, based in Victoria, British Columbia, created an awesome series of paintings, entitled Menagerie, depicting a variety of polygonal animals inhabiting otherwise natural settings. Laura says of her series, “It reconciles my fascination with the natural world and computer game aesthetics.”
Here you see Chase the foxhunt, monkey Bathers, Creep the octopus, The Lady and the Unicorn, Snub Nosed Monkeys, and the Tiger. We love them all.
Laura has an Etsy shop where you can purchase prints of these wonderful pieces and more, and sometimes original paintings too.
