This was created by a very good friend of mine and really captures the feel of what I'm trying to create. The old school blues, The Delta Blues, The Acoustic Blues, The raw emotion of it all.

I sure love my Witch. It's a simple one compared to the more graphic recent ones, but that's just what i wanted. It sounds great and looks awesome. I know Uncle loves his. Pick's an amazing artist and a go getter, for sure. I love the new metal factory Pick's "Familiar". I want one of those (when i get some extra $). Maybe i'll do good at holiday sales?.... :^)
I'm looking forward to the finished result myself. From the other Witches I've seen Pick doesn't seem to disappoint and always gives it's owner something unique and special.
Wow Pick, it's great to hear how you do your art. Way cool. Being an old graphic designer, illustrator, i know how into the technology you have to be. Mine was a much earlier day with different tools. Your method brings great results. It will be fun to see what you do for Blue. Have fun with it....
for your information - jim , it's a combination of about 5 different royalty free clip art images (thats what they are for ) and original drawing / aspects . all mashed together in windows paint .. with me drawing and subtracting other elements . the black silouette with the hat was a small boy with no hat facing the other direction . i flipped and re-sized him and added the hat , and drew the smoke in , on top of another piece of clipart as a background that had the devil shadow on the wall . i erased the original figure casting the shadow , with the flipped man in the hat , whose face i also changed to look older . then i matched the shadow leg with the mans leg better , i drew in the cigarette and added the smoke , i also drew in the devils flame breath , and reshaped his mouth . i resized random bricks and pasted them in more random spots , i drew in and colored in the table and drink and bottle . then i edited it in a photo editor adding the background and adjusting color , then i placed it in paint again and added the text .
