Share your artwork v. BL's got talent

A couple of small things I finished this past week - got SO many WIP's it's not even funny - it's my mission to get them finished before starting anything big anew.

Something caught my eye - I like cats...and eyes.

A sketch I did yesterday, that should've taken maximum 20 minutes, which ended up taking 40 minutes - I need to get sketching everyday, get back up to scratch, then I can learn to do things quicker...otherwie tattooing will not get started.

Tattoo design for a friend's daughter - she gonna get it soon - for her family name, and her grandfather.

my good friend on request drew me one of the tats im getting done soon - filling up my sleeve :). I just love his style esp for inks.
 
Awesome stuff JSPete, I love the coloured pieces in particular. What medium do you use for those?
 
The first two are paintings (really fuck off huge ones at that...first is acrylic on canvas, and second is oil on the back of a wooden board) and the last one I actually made on photoshop :)
 
Art is something of an ambiguous concept, I studied fine art & design back in art college, as drawing & painting was pretty much the cornerstone of my life.
As technology advanced (quite fucking rapidly actually) i found my niche in photography, taking my steps into taking what would be considered a 'good' photograph, then marrying the ideas of a simple still image & artistic license. Anyway, enough of the waffle, i thought i'd share a photo that i took in 35mm B&W film format, using 1 of my old cameras from the 1960's & scanned in.

The guy is my Mentor, who taught me how to properly take a photograph, so this is an homage as well.
