I doubt anyone would use the
word "artist" when describing my somewhat questionable talent
with Paint Shop Pro, but I enjoy
dabbling, and as such feel the need to force my hobby on the polyamorous
community :::grin::: I hope you enjoy my poly symbols as much
as I enjoyed making them.
All of my art
is free for non-profit use, but please do not use my designs for
commercial gain.
I would appreciate a link back to this page, if you use it on your
website.
Below
is my latest piece. Doesn't look like much, huh? Well, have you ever
seen those 3-D stereograms, that when you stare at them out of focus,
you see a 3-D image pop out? This is one of those, and the 3-D image is
an infinity heart. It looks something like this:

This
is the stereogram, can you see it?

here for another version, with a much wilder pattern covered in little
colored hearts.
I think it is harder to see on this pattern, but still neat. |
| This
was inspired by the pattern on the poly shirt
available for purchase at Villain
Tees (get one, they are VERY cool!) Their design consists of 2
dragons facing one another in a heart shape, with an infinity symbol
twined around their tails. Their design is done in a very nice tribal
pattern. I substituted the ever popular poly icon - the parrot - and a
non-tribal format. |

originally started this piece in hopes of turning it into a tattoo. I
didn't quite have the artistic skill to be happy with it, so I am not willing to have it
permanently tattooed on my skin. It is still pretty nice though. |

Several
years ago I designed some 3D infinity heart symbols. They were inspired
by the symbol created by Brian Crabtree.

Later
someone asked me if I could make it with a full heart, instead of just
an outline of one. This was a bit more of a challenge... I had to make
the heart translucent so you could see the infinity symbol.

When
I created the first design, I never quite thought the infinity symbol
looked right. I mean, it got the idea across and people knew what it was
supposed to represent, but you could not actually see the point where
the lines cross over. So I have finally gotten off my butt and
redesigned it!

This
full heart was even more of a challenge for me than the first time. In
order to display the infinity symbol correctly, I had to actually have
it punch holes into the heart. Pretty gruesome, huh? Oh well... it was
worth a try :-)

This
version is a very simple line drawing, it is easy to remove the color
and re-fill in the lines. Just for fun I made this infinity symbol
purple instead of blue.

Below are an assortment of
"poly parrots". The colors I used are a bit
fantastical and are inspired by the colors used by Jim Evans in his
"Poly Pride Flag".
Red to represent love and
passion; Purple to represent the spiritual and visionary nature of the
poly people; Blue to represent the openness and honesty in poly relationships. The
black "mask" and breast marking represents the
"solidarity with those who, though they are open and honest with
all participants of their relationships, must hide those relationships
from the outside world due to societal pressures". |
