Yeah so I think this one is pretty much done. Tell me what you think. I think I might try and upload it to In Print.

Work in Progress


Well finally this terrible year is almost over. I guess I should be thankful for what good has come to me. Case in point my new Wacom Tablet. I gift that me and Santa split the difference on.

So above is what I am working on now. A kind of mix between photo and computer illustration, there will probably be some design elements in there. I am kind of just playing around to see what I can do.

Third act of business is this new artist I stumbled upon. I'm going to add his blog on here, but his website is:

All Talk

So it appears that in my busy last two months I have not updated my blog much. If you noticed the banner (which I swore to myself I'd keep up with) still says October.

But don't think I've been slacking in art. I've been building my portfolio, and working on a ton of stuff. My figure Drawing final for instance was a 10 piece series inspired by Ashley Wood. I really need to retake the photos of that.

So I am going to try really hard to get some stuff posted on my down time, and also keep myself doing art. Doing Doing Doing I cannot stop...I will not!

IF anyone has some kind of hunger to see my work, maybe this will sate your appetite.

Pomegranate

"Pomegranate & Rib Cage"
11x14
Acrylic and Colored Pencil on Bristol.

Let me know what you think of this one. Im still deciding whether or not I accomplished what I wanted. I had to do this in a Triadic color scheme for Color theory. The blue outlines were a pain because I had one of those crayon like things that come with prisma colored pencils to do it with.

Spare Paint

"Over Ripe"
Unknown Size
Acrylic and image transfer on Bristol

I gave this to my manager. Just something I whipped up after completing my color wheel. Paint is too expensive to waste.
