Where YOU goin'? (With that gun in your hand)

I may be a voodoo chile. I have been listening to lots of Jimi the last couple of days, in the car and at home. Anyway listening made me feel like painting. I've dropped the aliens at the moment and am experimenting with painting on paper. So here's a piece - acrylics on papyrus (Yes "Hey Joe" was playing):

Meanwhile I am drawing a series of iPad paintings about my Purple cat. Now don't you go telling people I don't have a purple cat, because I do, see?

Alien Winter

With frozen vines, the need to wear two pairs of socks, icy winds and the UFOs flying all over the place, I guess this painting needs no explanation. But I could be wrong on this.

Aliens Invading

Alien invasion in 2013. You heard it here first. Well that's my world currently. It started on iPad some time ago - alien creatures appearing in my Brushes drawings, and now they have spread to my canvas. It all makes sense - this is what the Mayans were predicting - the end of the world, no - but look at their drawings, their markings on mountains and plains. Or rather, the Nazca marks. Were they the Mayans? "No you idiot they were the Nazca". Isn't that some sort of American car racing thing? "No that's Nascar, you fool". Ah well, there's some sort of alien life form invading my art world, and I like it.

Here's some iPad aliens:





And here's some new alien paintings - the first one larger on wood and the second one smaller, on canvas:
Alien Revenge. Mixed media on plywood, 80x60cm
Alien Pair. Mixed media on canvas, 27x46cm
More, as usual, on the website, at www.davidabse.com, when I've uploaded everything.
