Just a note to anyone who stumbles across this journal. I am no longer posting here with any sort of regularity. It is in no way up to date with any of my recent stuff. If you are looking for my artwork, please visit:

Artisticentropy.com

my personal website which is the most up to date and comprehensive - though it's kind of perpetually undergoing redesign,

or

My Insanejournal Account

which is my new blogging home.

Thanks very much! Sorry for the inconvenience.

Okay, I feel kind of shitty for doing this, being I haven't even checked LJ in like a year or so...but it's for my sister - it's my job as big sister to help her out! Besides, it will only take a second, and I promise to try and get back in the swing of things here! :) My crappy job which threw me out of LJ land in the first place may be calming down a bit now for a little while, so we'll see what happens. ^^;;

Anyway, Min recently got engaged and she's entered a contest for "best engagement story". If she wins, she'll get a free room for her wedding reception at the Honeywell Center in Wabash (where they live) which is a pretty swanky place, and she has no money, SO she needs it. If you'd all send an email to engagements@honeywellcenter.org with the subject "Vote - Jeff and Mindy" I would be dearly in your debt! They're allowing people to vote once from every email address they have, so if you can vote more than once, please do!

( The short version of the story, if you're interested )

Help out my little sister and me love you long time! Thank you!!! XD

Title: After Silence
Artist(s): artisticentropy
Rating: PG-13 for licking?
Warnings: Slash - neck licking
Characters/Pairings Lupin/Black
Media: Photoshop over a pencil sketch
Notes/Comments: for elfflame's birthday, an illustration of her daily_deviant story of the same name. :)



( Fake cut to my insanejournal )

Look guys! I'm remembering to cross-post something! *is proud of self* Still directing you all off the evil website though and onto the good one. ;) The less time you spend here, the better off you are! It's for your own good!

Title: King of Swords
Artist: artisticentropy
Type: Art
Main character or Pairing: Dark!Harry/Snape/Lucius/Draco
Card: King of Swords
Card Interpretation: From the prompt/claim table: "He is the power of life and death, [by] virtue of his office." and "Perceptive, strong-willed, firm in either friendship or enmity. He may also be suspicious, over-cautious, cruel, and overbearing." (RW)
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: All your wizards are belong to JK Rowling
Warnings: implied multiple partner slash, and er, cruelty to animagi?
Summary: When Dark!Harry is your friend, he is a very good friend. When Dark!Harry is your enemy...
Author Notes: I was going to put the Dursley's in there, but they messed up the composition, so Wormtail got caged instead. This was done as a companion piece (at least in style/clothing) to my King of Wands submission from the last time around on hp_tarot.



( Real cut to picture )

For those of you seeing this because you have me on your friend's list, er, I haven't been very good about cross-posting things over here from Insanejournal where I've settled permanently. If you've missed my artwork, I'm keeping my website updated, or you can go check http://artisticentropy.insanejournal.com :) Off the top of my head, I know you've missed a Snupin, a Snucius, and maybe a snarry? :\ Don't remember. Also, a picture of my cat.

Click the pic for Snape/Harry/Draco - Rated R for suggested nakkie XD



The poll results for this month's daily deviant pic were:

Bill/Neville: 3.5 votes
Bill/Tonks/Charlie (as Pirates!): 2 vote
Remus/Severus: 1 vote
Sirius/Snape: 1 vote
Harry/Draco: 1 vote
Harry/Draco/Luna: 1 vote

I may do them as pirates anyway, though Neville makes me think of plant!bondage! XD Those who voted Bill/Neville-and those who didn't- do you need your Neville on the bottom? >:) That could be a deciding factor! I'll wait a while to start drawing it, to give you guys time to give me feedback. ;) Honestly, I'm glad Draco/Snape/Harry didn't even come up *L* as much as that's one of my OT3s, I think I've done 3 or so of them for D_D so far! XD

Hmm...why is there no Draco/Harry/Snape comm? I'd join that in a second. I don't know any good places to post threesome art. ^^;;

Also, if you have an insanejournal, (or other clone, but preferably IJ) please friend me there! :D I'm going about collecting fandom people atm, but I'm sure I'm missing some of you! everyone is welcome!

Hello happy people. I just finished an awesome threesome picture for the lovely alisanne's b-day which you will all get to see tomorrow, which means:

It's that time again! I need to come up with a pic for this month's daily_deviant piece with the theme of "AU"!

As always, I have pretty much no preference on a pairing (except I'm not so big on SS/HR or H/HR) so give me ideas please! I'll draw whatever gets the most votes in comments. No poll this time because I don't want to limit it and LJ can "bite my bright shiny ass." as Bender would say. :P Also, I don't have the ability to poll on GJ, IJ, or JF. ^.^ Don't vote for an orgy either please! *L* threesomes are about my limit.

so far I have:

Bill/Neville: 3.5 votes
Bill/Tonks/Charlie (as Pirates!): 2 vote
Remus/Severus: 1 vote
Sirius/Snape: 1 vote
Harry/Draco: 1 vote
Harry/Draco/Luna: 1 vote

Good morning my peoples! I just remembered that I never posted any ofthe doodles I made during my first read through of DH! BAD Jes! BAD!

So for your enjoyment here are the first two. :D i.e. the only one's I've scanned and quickly cleaned up in PS:

WARNING: SPOILERS (DUH) :P

You can find them on Journal Fen: http://www.journalfen.net/users/artisticentropy/880.html#cutid1
Insane Journal: http://artisticentropy.insanejournal.com/26045.html
Greatest Journal: http://www.greatestjournal.com/users/artisticentropy/26360.html?#cutid1

Second one: http://www.artisticentropy.com/index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=71&page=view&catid=3&key=27&hit=1

There's nothing naughty in either image, I'm just too pissed off at LJ at the moment to ever want to post anything directly here ever again.

A Meme! What better way to celebrate a new journal? XD



best idea for a comm - Ever.

Anyone have a Journalfen account? I just got one, but I'm friendless! XD Add me if you'd like! same user name there as here.

http://www.journalfen.net/users/artisticentropy/

Happy Birthday magic_helmet! I hope it's a great one. :)

Rated PG-13 for slash and bare chest?


For those of you seeing this on LJ, it IS Snarry, so you may want to see/rate/comment on it on my webpage - Here - instead (no registration required) even though I don't think Harry looks particularly underaged and I certainly didn't intend to draw him that way or ( Just see it bigger under the cut )

Trying out the posting to multiple journals at once trick....

but just to give it substance, I've got all of my HP icons online on my website now, if you're bored and like that sort of thing. :P http://www.artisticentropy.com/index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=71&catid=7

back to being waiting for the cable guy. :P

I'm not going to directly post here anymore, but I'll make post announcements on LJ for a while.

there's a new pic posted here :D Sorry LJ tribunal, no chan, incest, non-con, or even overt slash, but I'm still not sharing.

Come join me on IJ, everyone! :D New friends are very welcome.

What with the disappearing fanartists lately, I thought it would be prudent to make an InsaneJournal. If you have an account there, feel free to add me. :) I don't know how long I'll keep posting fandom stuff over here...

http://artisticentropy.insanejournal.com/

I've got a greatest journal too - same user name, but I think I like IJ better. I may post some stuff that's never made it online - like some DH sketches, as incentive to those of you fellow IJ users. ;)

Happy Birthday igtow! You are an amazing writer and a wonderful lady! Hope it's a good one!

Here's a quick Snarry doodle, just for you!



( Happy B-day IGTOW! )

Sorry my posts have been scarce lately people! I've been super busy IRL - we're redoing the apartment, our last summer camp just ended at work-eek! Lots of stuff to do in wrap up and they want me to make fliers for this year's programs at the same time!- dealing with cable people, purging out all the old crap we don't use anymore, incredibly thorough cleaning which the place needs desperately, on top of being out of town for a few days there. Things should settle down now though, and next week is my vacation! Yay, even though I'm not going anywhere! So lots of art-y goodness should be forth coming around then! ;) Now to go wait on our new furniture being delivered! Whee!

Hey guys,

I'm in the midst of updating my website and I could use some feedback from some users who are over 18.

In order to test out the registration function and the site's built in user access restriction, I've only made the NC-17 gallery currently accessible. Due to the content, you have to be over 18 and register with the site in oder to view it. In the past several months I've tried out every gallery script known to man, and quite frankly, at the moment I hate them all. ^^;; Anyone willing to go take a look at it and let me know if it's easy to view the pics, loads well, displays the images nicely, etc - any suggestions you have for something that might work better - I'll love you forever!

As an added incentive, some of the images in that gallery haven't ever been posted to any of my LJs, 1 of them I did for an exchange, but never posted the reveal here, some of them haven't been posted to the net _ever_ and some of them haven't been posted to the net in nearly 5 years. ;) There's bound to be something new for each of you! ^.^

If I end up going with this script, I'll break the galleries down further into slash/fanart/original/character oriented/etc - something like that, so don't let the fact that all the images are currently a bit disorganized in there bug you. This is mainly to see if I should go ahead and put more effort into this particular way to display my art, or find something else entirely. :P

*cookies and chocolate and snogs for everyone who helps out* ;)

There's also a shoutbox there that can be used for art requests as well as getting in touch with me fast, or just messing around. ^^;; People seem oddly reluctant to post in it for some reason :P Never had that problem on the old incarnation of the site. I don't bite, I promise.

This is my last day off for 14 days straight. Why does the prospect of working millions of hours without a day off, make me go into artistic frenzy? 0.o

I'm out of mad-cg-mode though. Now I'm drawing like crazy. I've got magic_helmet's b-day pic nearly done (Snape's robes need some work), and my hp_tarot thing well on it's way (need to decide on costuming and who I'm putting in it besides Dark!Harry, Snape, Draco, Lucius, and a girl that could be Pansy or Bellatrix - I haven't decided that either.) :P On this tarot pic, I've almost slipped back into my older drawing style o.0 it's kind of strange, but it's working so far. It's good for roughing in lots of characters relatively quickly.

If any of you have August b-days and haven't made your requests yet, now's a good time to throw them out there! :D

*heads off to update the "art to do" post*

I finally finished that animated Moody icon! XD



Feel free to grab it, if you want. Just comment and credit.

For libby_drew: A scene from her wonderful fic, "A Mile in his shoes" Hopefully I managed to capture the feel of the scene - it's got a absolutely /wonderful/ setting. :D I may have went a bit overboard on the background - eh heh. This scene also happens to work wonderfully well with my hp_art100 prompt number 8: Forgive. ^.^

Look! A conveniently icon-sized thumbnail! :P



( Oooo, H/D goodness! )

Hope it was a good one! XD
