Wonder what its like to be a Super Hero

Every since I was young I have been fascinated with the mythology of superhero comics. The ability to be extra ordinary and the feeling what is it like to have a superpower. How does it feel to leap over buildings in one jump or run faster than a locomotive? How does it feel to be unstoppable? Those feelings are something no one could ever comprehend. If I had to choose as a child what would be my superpower it would be to manipulate water. Water has been my favorite element for a very long time its looseness the feel of being in water. How much power water as a element is.
I plan to execute this piece in ink and watercolor. Because of time and a effectiveness water color brings. My image I am trying to depict is a child in a public environment experimenting with his abilities in front of every one in amazement of a child controlling water.


My own Wonderland

I have always wanted to be in my own version of wonderland. I have always liked the fantasy of being in a world that has no set rules nothing has to make sense at all. Pretty much being in a dream like world. Logic is the only thing that doesn’t make sense in that world. Wizard of oz and Alice in Wonderland were made some of my favorite stories as a child and still today because those stories opened another universe that’s parallel to ours existing in only in some ones dream and how it was way more than a dream. Those stories always left me wondering what if they had stayed in that world how big was this world how far does it go.
I want to choose watercolor and inks to execute the image. I want to depict my own dream like world with a child like me trapped in my own wonderland. With made up creatures and made up architecture.


What if my drawings came to life?

Since I was young I always had done character design they had their own personalities etc. I always wondered how it was if I was surrounded by them like the movie Cool World. It’s like the feeling of being surrounded by your own children. Even characters I just doodled from my head what would it be like surrounded by your own imagination what if they had all came to life. That would be the ultimate ability you’d never be alone in a way just keep on creating and be surrounded by creation probably never half do my work id be more inspired to finish work.
I m going to use ink and water color image im going to portray is a young boy version of me drawing and images are flying out of the page. And him being surround by crazy creatures of me.
