Sketch

Approaching graduation, i am trying to round out my portfolio with more editorial pieces, that aren't just decorative. This is another environmental piece, this one being about smart cars versus all other toxic forms of transportation that we grace our earth with. Painting will be posted soon!

Update: Painting.

 

Here's the not quite finished final piece.

Coming Up

At Jinxed gallery on February 13th, I will have this piece in the 3rd Annual Alex Curtis Memorial Heart Show, along with a ton of other artists, including some of my fellow senior illustration majors from uarts. This is one of my favorite pieces ive ever painted, possibly because the colors worked out well, oh yeah and it has cats in it!

Here's an image of my third moop, this is the Russia inspired doll, hope you guys like it! I'm trying to get images of my 2nd doll posted but I'm having difficulty for some reason.

   

Senior Thesis

Here's a preview of the project im working on for my senior thesis. Im making hand sculpted custom toys and painting them. The final product will be a photographed ad for my custom toys.

  

Form is hand made out of Super Sculpey, then sanded and painted in acrylic paint. This is my Japanese doll. I'm doing three other dolls from Russia, Kenya, and India. More pics to come!

Updating

So I haven't had much time for new posts, but here's some projects ive done in the past month.

Above is a painting I did, it is supposed to be editorial and would be for an article about green roofs and their benefits for the environment.

Below are a few designs I did that would be printed on blank note cards. The series of images are all african mammals.

       

     

   

    

Digital Illustration

Within my style.. I believe it would be very easy to go to doing digital work because I paint in flat colors. For anyone who doesn't know me, my work is all painted with acrylic paint and I do it because I LOVE the process of mixing colors and the work that goes into doing a physical painting. For my one assignment I decided to do a full spread book cover for a field guide on birds, and it was my first digital piece. As you can see there is not much difference between the digital work and my other painted work but I think I'll stick to painting!

    

Pattern Design

I have been having difficult posting this particular image perhaps because the computers at school are very slow and special. But anyway this is a gridded pattern of an image that I put together by combining two paintings.
