In 2007, while staying in the hospital (I wasn’t the one sick) I would stay up late late at night and draw and color out in an empty lobby. I was under a lot of stress, but I would crank out so many images due to needing an outlet. The picture on the right was one of those. It’s always done quite well at art shows and conventions, so I decided to revisit it and make it a new set of limited edition watercolor prints. There’s a few subtle changes, and certainly a stylistic change as well. I still like the one on the right, just not enough to sell it anymore. So, hope this new version will take its place!
The picture on the left will be a set of 13x19 watercolor prints sold only at Sakuracon this year. I haven’t yet decided on if it’ll be available as any other print size.
Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition.
The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it’s my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.
