things you've made
Kou_Indigo said:I created this drawing using a simple black pen and some plain white printer paper. I made this, and a great many more like it, back during the late 90's and early 2000's before moving unto paintings and then digital artwork. Digital artwork being the type that I do now. I put this and all the rest of my artwork up on DeviantArt over the years. This type of artwork takes a LONG time to complete, and with the amount of detail that I like to add a single drawing can take, for me, days or weeks to complete depending on how much time I sink unto it. This drawing depicts the Biblical "War in Heaven" and features the archangels (from left to right) Gabriel, Michael, and Raphael. I chose to depict them more humanlike and without wings of any kind in this image. The fiery beings that are fighting the demons with them are Seraphim angels who are in some ancient texts referred to by the term "Fiery Serpents". The skeletal ghost-like beings are evil spirits, who are retreating from the angels... and the demons are the skeletal, reptilian horrors at the bottom of the scene. I tackled quite a few Biblical, spiritual, and religious subjects back then because at the time I was studying pretty much every religion and tended to discover in my studies a lot of interesting inspirations for artwork, and for some of my poetry during that time in my life. This is still one of my best black and white ink drawings of them all!
That drawing you did Kara look amazing! It remind of a little bit of the medieval woodcut style of artwork, especially the works of the artist Albrecht Dürer. This a very good style, and I like what you did with it there. I thought your explanation about it was very good thought out, the way you explained some of the details you put into it. But I always liked your artwork no matter what style you make it in! Show more sometime, I find them interesting works that show a very nice eye for the details.

Thank you Robert. The main time is deciding what pattern I want to do and then setting up the warp appropriately. I'm guessing it takes about 8-10 hours to make one.
Got a pic of one of your tote bags made from leftovers?

LunaGreyhawk said:Those are just beautiful, Josh! I love the meditative practice of weaving and kumihimo. Reminds me, I’ve been meaning to get my marudai out and do some braiding.
Thank you Luna. I remember seeing a picture of your marudai with work-in-progress some time back. For me also weaving is a great meditative practice. We run a little weaving/knitting studio at our house once a week which is a good time of real conversation too. All the best for 2023, Josh.

Not actually a physical thing but I just updated my profile picture for all of my social media sites that contain my poetry. It's this profile picture I'm using here. Did it in photoshop elements 5 days ago. Also a most recent drawing I did.
Well, she won't post this but I certainly will! I am in awe of this stunning, handcrafted, beaded leather bookmark I received from LunaGrayHawk! I knew it was beautiful from the photos; however, had no idea of the remarkable craftsmanship until I saw it in person!
I would place it in my favorite book; however, I'd rather display it! 🙏❤

I'm in awe and wonder of people who can draw; nicely done. Best regards, Josh.
