Sick Spiral and Imp
Continuing the picture dump:
This was my attempt at creating an image that was ugly, but at the same time pleasurable to look at. I cut the grungy border off of an ancient public domain photograph and twisted it around over and over. I like how the spiraling creates the illusion of a tunnel and the texture makes it a bit hard to take in the whole form of the design. This one is pretty high res and is best enjoyed fullscreen.
Working off the same sort of shapes that I use in Bug Girl, I created this little Imp. The spiky lines were a product of a custom brush in photoshop. I crushed a large circle down to a very thin oval and set it the angle to the direction of the pen. The line is thin and smooth when painted in a straight line, but becomes wide and spiky on a curve.
