This collaboration ended up looking more like my own stuff, I think. Perhaps a T-shirt design?

Venus & Equus

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011 | Posted in Abstract, Drawings, Felix by Felix | No Comments

This one took us quite a while, but I think we both had a lot of fun drawing it. I encourage you to click to get a look at the detail — a lot of the fun was in creating very intricate textures. I’m not accustomed to working with such a fine-tipped pen, but it does allow some liberties that a wider line doesn’t offer.

Pipe Dream

A collaboration. This one didn’t turn out quite how either of us was hoping. The dream got away from us and out of control.

Seated Monk

Monday, July 11th, 2011 | Posted in Drawings, Felix, Life-Drawing by Felix | No Comments

I started drawing this monk who was drinking tea at the teahouse, but he was so sociable that I had to leave before he sat back down and stopped talking to people.

Tree Breath

Thursday, June 2nd, 2011 | Posted in Abstract, Drawings, Felix by Felix | No Comments

This is another piece with my frequent collaborator, with many of the usual ideas and a few new ones to liven things up. The piece is joined by some short verse written to accompany. Click the image to enlarge.

And there existed
Bouncing between
The tree breath
Crushing waves
Chimes singing
Surfing the gusts of wind

She fell in love with
The hot air
That kept my home
My hot air balloon
Afloat

And from above
Between lightning bolts
Athena and comfy chair clouds
I watched the elephants bathe

And kept my fingers
Crossed for Romeo
And for Juliet

I watched dragons shed scales
Against pointed rocks from
Before time

I watched white-sailed ships
Weather ocean waters
Almost as fast as I
Watched the world
Floating on
Tree breath
