Tentacles

This is a piece I just finished up for my Illustration Techniques course. There are some tweeks I need to do but I'm happy with this piece right now. I'll repost it later on with the alterations.

I really think I've found my perfect medium combinations, this is definitely the style I've been pushing for for a while. Granted there are some things that need to be fixed but I'm really happy for once.

The next step of this project is to redo it in a different medium.

Bitter Self Portrait.

So I'm not quite sure what I'm doing with this piece and if it's done or not. I was feeling really crappy this winter and came up with this concept. Angry about who knows what. Anyway, I'm taking an acrylic painting class and had a reason to go with it. I wanted to try a bit of an experimentation with my painting skills also. There are still some things I need to tweek but this is a semi-finished point of aggravation for me right now.

On a side note I've been doing some building exploration lately with a photographer friend and a fellow illustrator. I've got some good photographs from it and am thinking about turning them into some unconventional pieces of artwork... just for fun. (aka my acrylic class)

Old and New

So today I officially launched (oh that sounds so good) my new portfolio website.

Took so long to do because I hand typed the HTML. I really should learn some kind of application.

Anyway, you can view it at:

Also, here's an older piece that I previously did not scan or upload, from the beginning of this school year.


The assignment was to show a fear in a silhouette. Mine is the fear of infestation and bugs!

Just some doodles...

I haven't really got any finished work yet for this quarter (which started about four weeks ago now!) but I thought these were pretty funny:





Both are doodles from my art history class...

I don't know... felt like I had to post something it's been so long!
