Hello all!

So, 100% of you don't know who I am, but I like to make music and paint pictures. To keep this short and sweet I have been working on a new art form in the last year that I have been perfecting. Starting off with my very first one..."My Mind", do enjoy!



Art by Me, Music by Me!

I have a couple of these completed, so I will post a few here and then entice you with one per week or something until this thread is caught up...This next one is called "Graven Image"



Music by me, Art by me...do enjoy!

This is the 3rd one I have done...It's called "Solar Suicide".



Music by me, art also by me.

Wow. not bad.

The process is pretty interesting, too, integral part of your art form. Kinda like Bob Ross meets Jackson Pollock... on PCP... Which is meant as a compliment.

This is my 4th try at my new art form..."Self Awareness"

Thanks QuulDrah! - I will take that as a compliment! Lately I have stepped up my frame rate to .125 per slide and it takes a bit longer to produce a video...my latest one I am working on just topped the 700 slides range but I have about 1,300 to go!

I am trying to at least create 30 slides per day but playing MechWarrior has influenced that mark a little bit.

BTW: same problem as with Ross/Pollock paintings: the process gets lost if all you have left is the finished canvas. (plus, I couldn't afford either of the three)... You are selling the last scene of a movie without the movie - the post-coital cigarette without the sex - the already-solved crossword puzzle.

Do you compose the music especially for the videos?

that is a lot of energy... Should you ever put that much effort into MWO, I'll be sure not to stand in front of your weapons

I started as a way to promote my music, but it kind of started to combine into music/art. And lately I have been taking frames from the video and adding that to Zazzle for sale. Not something I want to do here, it's basically a way to say I am a human...and do other stuff besides play MW all day.

I have made many many music tracks for publishing, (it's not going over to well but I am still learning) bought a really decent wacom tablet (something I always wanted) and well...just going from there.

What started out as a way to show how I get from A. to B. turned out be animation and each time I try a new video I step it up...my last one was like 460+ slides and the one I am working on I want to be 2,000+. But it takes time, which is why I want to do at least 30 slides a day. 10 days = 300 slides.

Thanks for watching! I really enjoy that!

I totally understand. My art is kind of...how would I say...Off the beaten trail. Thank you so much for checking it out Lily!
