Self Portrait?!

Hive Gallery is going to have a special exhibition with their feature artists of 2009 and 2010. We are supposed to make a painting of our own Avatar in the fantasy world of Hive. I believe the avatar should have some kind of super power ... so anyhow, here is my take of my own Hive Avatar. HE! HE!! Err ... I am the one with the bird mask ... I guess my power would be some kind of traveling ability ...

This version is slightly touched up for the Hive Art Book.

Gems decorated on the original painting ... this one is for the wall.

This is the original, before framing. And below are sketches of the paintings.
