I'm on the wall!

Ok, so at school if the teacher is impressed by your work they pin it up on the wall on the third floor of the art building for all the world to see, well maybe not the whole world but at least all the art majors will see it. Anyways I haven't had anything up on the wall for about a year or so and I'm pretty stoked that my 1-point perspective drawing made the cut! It might not seem like a big deal to have your artwork tacked to a ugly scratchy wall but this is pretty darn awesome if you ask me.

It's been awhile...

So I'm not very good at updating my blog but I'm pulling an illustration from the archives of my sketch books since I don't feel like posting anything recent. Enjoy.

Oil Lift out: non-digital

So I did a previous project where I had to recreate this technique in Photoshop but now I have used it with REAL oils! I love the result and it was really nice to paint something again.

Whoops! Sorry about the glare

Some Sketches

So here are some random doodles from my sketchbook. They aren't that great but it shows that yes I have been doing something art related this summer. I've had a thing for floating heads lately I guess.

Final illustrations for class

So here are the final 4 illustrations I did for my Digital Illustration class.

We had to come up with 4 imaginary bugs. Mine all live in an office environment. 

I stayed up until 5 AM finishing these so they better look darn good! I got an A so that made me happy.

Intricate: Illustration Friday

The gypsy with an intricate skirt

The shadow isn't that good but the rest I really like. I made TONS of pattern brushes in Photoshop for this and it was lots of fun.

      

Instinct

Lemmings have a natural instinct to migrate when their population gets too large. Sometimes this results in an untimely death off a cliff.
