This is my half of a picture trade with Bill. It's all done on Painter. I think its meaning is ambiguous, which is good. Character ©2001 Bill McEvoy image ©2001 Thomas Blue.

This was the second fingerpainting. Three rats, maybe gang members, dukes of their turf. I kept things in an orange/blue combo as I wanted to give the impression of streetlights at night (gotta love sodium vapor). Image ©2001 Thomas Blue.

A 4-print version of an earlier piece. Spraypaint and stencil. ©2003 Thomas Blue.

This is the latest 'style trade,' done with Chris Goodwin. He gave me a sketch (http://www.eselkunst.com/images/0903/sittin-fo-mike.jpg) and I finished it. Pencil, Painter Classic, Photoshop. Image ©2003 Thomas Blue/Chris Goodwin, posted with permission.

This is a reload, if anyone caught it the first time. Ch'Marr let me know that the scan was no good, so I took it down and fixed it. Sorry about that. :) Anyway, this was a study I did for a painting. I ended up liking this version better and am glad I kept it. It's done in red, yellow and blue crayon.

Fourth in a recent series using Painter Classic. This one came by accident as I was trying to figure out how to use the pallette knives. Duh. You have to apply color -first-. Just an angry ferret. Image ©2001 Thomas Blue.

Just a little nothing. I wanted to play about with washes and medium. Thankfully, the cat was patient enough for a polaroid pose. Acrylic paint and wash. ©2002 Thomas Blue.

This is my first upload to VCL and my most recently finished painting. It's acrylic and crayon on masonite done as a fingerpainting. The ferret pictured is not a nice guy, I don't think. He's either a dealer or a bit of rough trade. I'm not sure. It's called "The Appointment," for whatever reason. Thanks in advance for any commentary. Image ©2001 Thomas Blue.

Next to last Arro Swimwear poster for AC. Approximately 26x36, acrylic on paper. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Most recent, an oryx, posing for Arro. This one with a more modern feel. Illustrator. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Another in the line of fine Arro products. Fake add with a 40s/50s taste for the swimwear company. Illustrator. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

And yet another fake ad for fake Arro Swimwear, this one with a more 20s feel. All these will be made into stencils and spray painted for the AC 2005 srt show. Illustrator. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

26" square, acrylic on brown paper. Final print for AC 2005 art show. Arro swimwear ad circa 1931. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Second in the fake "Arro Swimwear" line. Pattern for a stencil poster for the AC 2005 art show. Illustrator. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Propoasal for stencil poster for the AC 2005 art show. Arro, as far as I know, is a fictitious fashion brand. Illustrator. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Arthur from Circles, done in a more comicky style. Arthur ©2003 French/Domasnski/Fabianek.

An otter playing b-ball. Brush, ink. ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Wolf body builder, acrylic on cardboard. This will likely be redone as a spraypainted stencil piece. Slightly fuzzy scan as it's too big to put in the scanner, scan made from a polaroid. ©2003 Thomas Blue.

Part one of a three parter, I cheated a bit as this is painted over a photo in Painter. This one is my favorite of the bunch, I think. ©2002 Thomas Blue.

Second in the series, same photo, same program, different cat and colors. Wish I could get colors that bright in real life. :D ©2002 Thomas Blue.

Last one. This one has a little bit the feel of a Tijuana Jesus, I think. :D Again, same photo, same program. ©2002 Thomas Blue.

This one is sort of conceptual in that it's more the idea of a box of what a furry kid might have played with. I'm really into old robot toys and the art of their boxes. This is my first attempt at a design of my own. This was done with acrylics and brushes on board. Image ©2001 Thomas Blue.

Another boxer, this one meant to be a stenciled sticker. Illustrator ©2005 Thomas Blue.

Found some older stuff, some from last year, some from before that I hadn't uploaded for some reason. This was a boxer I sold last year at AC. Acrylic on board. ©2001 Thomas Blue.

Been working on otter boxers lately. This is the one finished one from a sketchbook full of inked sketches. Brush, ink and Painter Classic. ©2005 Thomas Blue.
