Continuation of Nightmares and some Me.



 


     So as some of you may know I'm one of those people who have a sleeping issue. It's not that I can't sleep it's that I cannot make myself sleep. It has to come naturally and well it doesn't tend to like me trying to sleep. Thus these thoughts cross my mind. Most of which are nightmares born from my mind. Now to clarify I'm not using nightmares properly most people refer to things as nightmares if it scares them. These are thoughts that wake me not frighten me awake. But they are mutations from my mind. so it leads to sorta work for their design structure. As well my own self image has been getting many of revamps. I'll be honest I'm not sure which one truly reflects me the most. It's that perfect reflection of my inner mind that I desire. Call it vanity if you will but I'm trying to show me but not me..... any who..... That's the update.

New Profile Pics and such

So again I was photo playing and decided to take a few more shots as I was getting this really cool almost rock star effect going and decided to see where it took me.
This one has possibility, but I think the dark was too much.

This one reminds me of an album cover but just poorly done.

There is a painful questioning look here. I was about to sneeze so that's why but it looked somewhat right for the ideal.

I liked the layout and for some reason this just worked for me.

I love this this is just an awesome finish

I had this really cool effect and never even knew it

Same Picture Different Mind.

     I was playing with a photo editor program last night and realized a lot of my self shot portraits I tend to go back to the same picture to play with it over and over thus I wanted to post this collaboration of them to see if I can get a mental response and see what the thoughts were. The following all look different but are indeed the same picture.







Maybe it's me....

More of the Nightmare Series

Dream Heart:
I think the best way to explain this is I love to dream and yet I occasionally fall to insomnia. Thus leading to a nightmare of my own passion. 
Man in box:
This has got a multiple approach and was a lot of detail work just to get it to look like this. A lot of it spawns from the old head cages from the insane asylum days, that and listening to Alice in Chains. 
The Eye:
This was a mixture as well of thought and that I know so so many people who have an issue with eyes. I was playing with my fire effect that I do from basically scratch and this cute yet weird oddity emerged. I call him blinky.

Series: Nightmare

     I've had a lot of semi lucid dreams as of lately and it's rather throwing as in them I do a lot of creating of objects and thoughts and such. Thus I had a moment of inspiration and decided to do a series of photoshop pieces dedicated to those creations called "Nightmare". It's not that these creations went evil or have been causing me nightmares, but the imagery in my mind feels like that of a nightmare in a bad horror movie. Thus leading to pieces such as the following.
Enter Jebus:
This piece is more of a creation of my mind. It's somewhat able to see but not really able to express it's thoughts vocally so thus it is in it's own rendition of hell. 
Family Portrait:
Growing up I tried to dodge the camera as much as I could as I hated having my picture taken. Trust me to a point I still do unless I control the camera. (seriously it got so bad that relatives thought I disappeared or was dead). I felt this was kind of a representation of that feeling I'd get when someone would pull a camera. 
Sweet Dreams:
This has got a double to triple meaning depending on whom you talk to. Yes the clown face was based on "SweetTooth from Twisted Metal. Yet the title to many who knew me in my teenage years well kind of explains itself to a bit. I'd explain but then it would get awkward.....

     So I leave you the reader and viewer of my odd bits of insanity to let these images soak in. Please feel free to comment or share these sick and twisted pieces with friends and family.
