Princess Searching

I've been making an effort to document my artistic process. My last post was the composition and line drawing of this painting.








Finished Painting!

Chairs and Balloons

was a fun piece from my Lithography class last semester. The print was black and white, then I painted it with my inks.

Free Radio

is a piece on freedom of expression. It is the second assignment of the Fall07 semester for my illustration class.

Summer Class

For the last three weeks I've been in a summer class. It's an upper level drawing studio, with the same instructor that I had last fall. I'm loving it. Here are just a few images from my first two weeks.


The first week we drew from life in the studio. First a still life, and then we had an awesome model for three days. This image was my HW that weekend. It's supposed to be a self-portrait as your hero or worst nightmare. I attempted to draw myself as my dnd character *geek* a golden elf socerer, but it looks like neither me, nor her, so i'm not particularly thrilled with it, but i like the form and style, and my teacher enjoyed it as an image.


The second week we concentrated on landscape. This is in Yarka Sauce, from sitting out by the lagoon.


For HW we had to complete a night landscape. So this is a glimpse of the farm where I play Airsoft with my friends. Black charcoal on white paper. I'm very happy with how this one turned out and intend on giving it to the family who owns the barn.


Then we spent a day playing around with Sumi-e. It was hard! It's really something you gotta work at for a long time and master. None of mine were that exceptional, but I enjoyed making them. It's relaxing.
