Title: Gallantry Is Back
About Artwork: I spent a few hours creating the crest, making and re-making it until i was happy with it. It looked so clean and crisp and i just happened to think of the James Boag ad, and well, gallantry is back! Caption: "As James Boag says my friends, gallantry is back... I was just working on a coat of arms, and it turned out like this. I like, hope you do too."

Title: You Can’t Hide Forever
About the Artwork: One of my good friends once said "You have to die of something, and i want it to be something worthwhile." And it just gave me the thought for this, death is coming, there is no avoiding it. I sketched the grim reaper for this, scanned it in, did some minor touching up then added it to a black canvas, adding a red glow and the text. Caption: "We are comming, and you can not escape.. You can run, but you WILL just die tired... Death catches up will us all eventually."

Title: Locked Up Heart
About the Artwork: I used non-stock brushes to try and explain the way i was feeling at the time, which i could not seem to put into words. I felt like i couldn’t show my true love, like it was locked up, and only one person had the key. I still can’t really say what i really mean, as much as i wish i could. Caption: "Last night, i don’t know what it was, but i just felt like i couldn’t say what i meant, i couldn’t put what i was feeling into words. So i drew this to try and explain it...
You have the key to my heart, set me free, stay with me... i love you."

Title: Listen To Your Heart
About the Artwork: I used Fireworks for this artwork, drawing a simple man and duplicating it 13 times, to make 14 of them. I added colour to two of them. I added the hearts to the two i had coloured. I spent a lot of time on the reflection, getting it as crisp and perfect as i possibly could. The title "Listen To Your Heart" is my girlfriend's and I "song", which is why i used that, and is how i first got the idea for the art piece.
Caption: "Always listen to your heart, never let it slip away, you will only regret it later...
You stole my heart, and i stole yours... I love you."

Title: I Miss You
About the Artwork: I used a picture of a gummy bear originally taken by "Fabi-FR" and duplicated it, changing the hue, saturation and contrast to fit. The idea was similar to "Listen To Your Heart" and so i used the same colours (to represent the same people). I was sitting at home while my love was out at a party, waiting to see her again, wishing i were there. I tried to portray the idea that although we are apart, we feel the same and both miss each other. Caption: "Sitting at home, doing school work, while all my "friends" are out partying. They talk behind my back, so i sit, waiting for my girlfriend. I know she is drinking, and i know i shouldn't worry, but i do... I love you, i miss you, i made this for you..."
