Coalition Comix – Help Create a Comic Book

Coalition Comix – Help Create a Comic Book

MySpace has launched a new project called Coalition Comix, where users determine the storyline. 
It seems pretty basic but it’s a novel idea on getting people involved in the project.  More than a choose your own adventure book, users will apparently impact even the deepest parts of the storyline. 
Let’s just hope users don’t kill off the main character eh?
Anyway, the writer/artist is Mike Carey
MIKE CAREY is the critically acclaimed and fan-favorite writer of comics, novels, movies, and TV. After working for several UK and American indie publishers, Mike got his big break in comics with celebrated runs on …read more

Philip Craig: Time Lapse Large Oil Painting

Philip Craig: Time Lapse Large Oil Painting

This video was quite impressive.  It would be fun to work on this scale.  Imagine the detail you could incorporate into something like this.

How to (try to) understand Abstract Art.

How to (try to) understand Abstract Art.

This is a revisited comic based off of one I did last week on my personal (what is becoming my cartoon) site, www.decloned.com
Now I am not down on abstract art in any way.  Most of mine is abstract too.  I just think that as any kind of artist, we must come to the realization that not everyone is going to understand our work, in fact… count on it.

Free: Awesome (Crayon) Drawing Game

Free: Awesome (Crayon) Drawing Game

I found this via FreewareGenius.  Now, if you are looking for a simple interactive drawing game, this is it. 
Granted, you aren’t drawing anything more than simple shapes, but it’s still pretty fun. 
Check out the screenshots and download it here on the author’s site.
I’ve been playing this yesterday and really, really enjoyed the break it gave me. 
I hope you enjoy playing it too.

Who’s your favorite Artist and Why?

Optical Illusions: A Video Tutorial

Optical Illusions: A Video Tutorial

I wish I could say I put this together, but I didn’t…
This is probably the best video on optical illusions I’ve found in quite a while.

I found it here.  Enjoy.

Sick.

Sick.

There’s that strange feeling you get when you’ve been sick for a few days, and the rest of the world can just …um, go away.
Well, that’s been me lately.  Some kind of sinus infection has hijacked my nose and trampled it in some dark alley.

So, I am writing this snot-infused post to let you know, that even though I am still alive somewhere mourning the belligerent virus that has so taken over me that I feel like a member of the living dead, I hope normal posting can resume again soon.
Until then, I must admit that there is a …read more

September Showcase – Arts and Design

September Showcase – Arts and Design

Many Artists usually battle any kind of organizing types of responsibilities.  I know I am like this.  Piles of papers can at times line the edges of my desk and a more than elaborate network of chores and todos can be posted in non-linear fashion within my mind at any one time.  However, I have found that there is usually a simpler way of living in putting together lists of things that intrigue or pique my interest. 
Below are Eight lists posts from some of our bloggers around the Arts and Design channel here at b5media of things they found …read more

I am a company man.

I’ve always been one of those people who take great pride in the company or place where I work.  b5 happens to be a great company to work for, and a great way for any blogger to grow.  Anyway, Awhile back Shai Coggins asked around b5 if anyone had any ideas for shirts, etc…
I didn’t think too much of it then, but a few months later now, I am now thinking about it a little more. 
So here is my unofficial shirt, sticker idea for b5media…
