The Lady - a new Cyberpunk Art Nouveau Piece

Since the ArtSHINE show, I've been wanting to do another of these pieces, so I've been working on another one the same way I did the Gentleman piece. I found a cool picture of a Victorian lady, and took it from there.

These are the first few stages, but she's coming along nicely.

James Mathurin Art is on Etsy now!

I've opened up a store on Etsy to sell some products I've made with my designs on. Have a look below in the handy widget-thing they let me use.

Here's a better look at the items on sale; they're all based on either the Street Art Superheroes or the Cyberpunk Art Nouveau sets, but I'll add more as I'm able to source products:

Melee in Melbourne

So, here's another Street Art Superhero piece. The art for this one is from Melbourne, and as for the characters... I'm not entirely sure. Still, I'm pretty happy with it.

Free Comic Book Day!

My haul from Free Comic Book Day. In the end I stopped by Kings , Kinokunya and Superhero Comics in Sydney and Newtown.

 I picked up Earth2 from Kings because they also had a sale on, but the rest were free.

I haven't read through them all yet, but the Marvel Avengers story is a good one. It takes a really interesting new lineup (new Thor, new Captain America (The Falcon), Iron Man, Vision and young heroes Nova, Ms Marvel and Ultimate Spider-Man (Miles Morales) and introduces them in a way that shows how they'll work as a team,and gives you an idea of what the book will be about

Also, Captain Fluffy tried to get in on my free comics.

Sorry mate, you should have queued up like everybody else!

Assault on Alton Lane (Newtown, Sydney)

Here's the first of the pieces I've been working on while the ArtSHINE show was on. This is another one of those pieces where I've used a street art photo I took for my Tumblr, and used it as the background for the superhero image I did.

So, what we have here is a giant lizard creature trying to catch a speedster on Alton Street in Sydney's Newtown.

Some new superhero sketches

While I was getting ready for the ArtSHINE show, I started doing some sketches, which turned into images that I'm going to use for some more pieces like my Battle of Brick Lane one. Been enjoying The Flash, so I wanted to do a speedster, and I've drawn plenty of insects lately, so that explains where the other one comes from.
