Sick Spiral and Imp

Continuing the picture dump:

Thumbnail of Sick Spiral

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.

Thumbnail of Imp

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.
