Two works made by myself & my pal Em aka Suphannee; the first one of the #flower is the one she did, it was done with oil paint on canvas. The second one, the #XMen #artwork featuring #Psylocke was done by myself on wooden board with acrylics , graphite, and ink

a painting of orchids, they are white petaled with pin and magenta in the middle, dark green leaves and stems

a painting of psylocke, she is standing, seen from her thighs up, looking down at the viewer, purple and pink energy behind her, she has a flaming sword in her hand at her side, her other hand up, psychic energy swirling around it

Contrary to popular belief, people like me (nerds) usually do have a real life... and a job! I even go out on a regular basis, sometimes even in the daytime! But not tonight. Tonight I just spent 45 minutes watching an old VHS demo tape on MS-DOS 4.01. Time well spent!
