SPOTLIGHT - OdditiesByErnie

Hello my friends,

I have no words to thank you the amazing response to the request to make TheFavouriteShowcase a Super Group again.
Our donation box is almost full and, without a doubt, in the next year we will continue to have our activities which depend to have a subscription, like our Monthly Theme, where we need to use the Poll Widget.

To those who have contributed here thefoundersfavourite.deviantar… goes my deepest appreciation.
As promised you'll get your recognition before Xmas, as a thank you for making this group a better place.

"I've been an artist since I was old enough to pick up a pencil... I create art on a daily basis, from drawing in various mediums, to painting, photography, digital, sculpture, makeup, assemblage and just about any kind of art I can get my hands on. 

I never went to college, didn't graduate high-school and left home at the age of 16... I have understudied some interesting artists, from a medical illustrator, to an art restorer, but I pretty much taught myself most of what I know... 

Typically my art is created with the intent to provoke a response in the observer... My style is heavily influenced by surrealists like Dali, comic book artists like Frank Miller, adult artists like Patric Nagel, and propaganda artists from all over the world.... I could go on and on about my influences.... 

My art often deals with social or political messages... 

I have shown/ sold my art in galleries and have been published several times... 

Professionally I work multiple jobs, one for a major financial institution and the other is in construction where I get to work my art into building things of lasting beauty, and my art... 

I am 40, married with 3 children. 

I sleep about 5 hours a day or less. I think I will get enough sleep when I am dead... 

I like all kinds of music and it influences my art... My favorite song is Aenima by Tool 

I love books, especially classic fiction... and have read hundreds of them... They inspire me too... My favorite book is 1984 by Orwell, or Machiavelli's the Prince, or maybe Twain's Huck Fin... hell, I have a lot of favorites... 

I grew up poor on a farm in nowhere Georgia, but have been in the Atlanta area for the better part of the last 2 decades. 

I box, I skateboard, I hike, I canoe, I fish, and I'm a pretty good archer...

I like role playing games, video games, Sci-fi movies, and cartoons... 

I love comic books... 

I am pretty much a Atheist and an Anarchist... not exactly, but for those of you who need labels... I'm ok with those... 

I am outspoken, and I dont tolerate any kind of discrimination... 

I am a highly self motivated, active person with an active imagination... 

Inspiration is never a problem for me... I have more ideas for art in a day than I could ever get down on paper in a "finished" version..,

I love to collaborate with other artists, and though I will take commissions, they have to be just right... and I still probably wont like them unless there is very little input from the person who wants the commission. 

My repeat offending subjects will always be, skulls, eyes, flowers, clouds and the human form... "
