The Escape Artist by Kenneth Rougeau This is a concept that's been floating around my head the last two or three weeks & I'm happy to have finally done something with it. The Escape Artist (flying away on the kite) is none other than Harry "Handcuff" Houdini. The really fun part? I had no idea at the time, but the image was created on Houdini's birthday (March 24, 1874). The synchronicity never stops!
An Invitation
by Kenneth Rougeau
"Curiouser and curiouser!' -- If you think that's weird, you're going to love this... Back when I was working on the Alice In Wonderland series of images, I created a pic called "An Invitation" in which a frog footman receives an invitation from a fish footman. The letter I'd used, it turns out, was penned by Jack The Ripper & is referred to as the "Dear Boss" letter. Even stranger, upon discovering this & delving a little further, I became aware that Lewis Carroll himself is considered a suspect in the Ripper murders! How bizarre is that?!

I wasn't entirely happy with the version of Hep Cats that I posted the other day & so I've spent a little more time poking and prodding at the pixels and am now content enough with how it looks. The first version wasn't seemless enough for my tastes. It lacked cohesion and was too obviously "put together" where I find that the new one looks more natural & is a bit more convincing... I hope you agree.

Here's a little something I put together today, just playing around with a concept. It isn't quite what I had in mind when I started, lol, but I do like the way it came together. I'll likely toy with the idea a bit more in the future... We'll see :)

I'm still working diligently on the new Looking Glass images too & hope to have something new up tomorrow. I'm also putting the finishing touches on the cover for a really cool horror novella... More on that soon!
Have a wonderful weekend!

I've just completed work on a new image & wanted to share it with you all. I've been wanting to do something with Julia Cameron's gorgeous photos for some time now and finally forced myself to sit down and work on it. I'm pretty happy with the results and hope that you enjoy it too! Prints and signed limited edition art trading cards are available at Thanks for having a look! |
Here's something I created this afternoon to get a bit more into the Halloween spirit. It's an homage to Edgar Allen Poe & his tale, The Raven.

I'm working on a new series of images at the moment and thought I'd show you the first one I've made... Let me know what you think, how it looks, whether or not you think I should colorize it, and whatever else comes to mind :)
Thanks for checking it out!
