Steampunk'd

Yup, I have officially been steampunk'd...

I'll admit that it wasn't until about a year and a half ago, that I had actually first heard of the term "steampunk", but the more I learned about it, the more I realized that it was a perfect genre to incorporate into my art. I had started a few steampunk pieces a few months ago, before my creative hiatus, and this is the first completed one. I will be listing it on eBay this weekend.

Finally... back in the studio

Well I am finally back! Not that I really went anywhere, I just really didn't have the time to post or create anything new. I am still trying to clean up the studio a bit so I can "find" where I left off. I have a few projects that got abandoned a few months ago and I am just itching to get them finished. As soon as I get my bearings, I'll post some pictures...
