I’ve seen this barn for ages and finally stopped to take a photo.
You can’t get a better patchworked old building than this!
Just look at the textures.

Who Watches the Watchmen?

March 7th, 2008

The OwlI do. or at least I will when it comes out this time next year. One of the most important comics of our time and one of my all time favorites, The Watchmen by Alan moore and Dave Gibbons changed the way we look at superheroes. so far the promo pics of the characters look pretty true to the story.

Here’s a fan SITE that tracks all the cool stuff. Enjoy.

oil painting on board - Based on a photo i took in Boston’s Copps Hill Cemetary with night vision. This is a blackgreen painted board with the rest done in white. I was Reading “Pickman’s Model” by H.P. Lovecraft in which he mentions pickman painting this place. i remembered i had visited there last year on a haunted tour and take some photo’s that were quite eerie.

i might add more to it. - i might not - haven’t decided
