The Gift

Okay, so the title is like a middle school writing prompt, if you come up with a better one let me know.

Cupid's Curse

At least this one has a plot?

I think it starts strong and starts to fall apart about a third of the way through.

Whale's Tale

I just got a box of my stuff from Japan today (really exciting stuff). Anyways, inside I found one of my school notebooks (Japanese Pop Culture if you want to know the class) where i'd sketched a design. i think it turned out pretty well, just needs color now!

Ok here's something i made last weekend in a glass fusing class using a kiln.

not too bad for a first attempt though i turned out to be horrendious at cutting the glass

Printer paper and colored pencil portraits

I've decided to play around with printer paper, because it makes the pencil much smoother.
Self portrait (because I find it easiest to get myself sit still and model)

And Patrick (from a photo):

Drawing like this reminds me of high school.

One, By Spilled Blood

This sucks. It really does, it's all over the place and so, yeah.
One of these days I pray that I have the talent to do it over. Do it right.

Ravens Concept Art

Starting my stop motion final now, and I'm basing it off of The Seven Ravens fairytale with flat paper upright in 3 dimensional space. So, this is a very crude concept page representation of a scene I had to make for class.

Hey guys! sry i know it's been a while... kinda hard when your computer and camera both need therapy and i don't do computer graphics/drawing... but that's all about to change once i get my new toy up and running!

ok so i've gotten back into the glass blowing community and it feels great... if only my work would start reflecting it. So here's the first peice i've blown for a while. The shape and stuff arent' great but i wanted to test out the color (beautiful!) so now i'm either gonna keep it around as a fun candy dish, use it for design/sand blasting pratice or smash it to cut designs out of for other projects... haven't decided which yet. Dang peice jsut cut me so maybe i'm gunning for smashing it, but the drawing practice would be more beneficial. especially since i plan on learning how to acid etch pictures onto peices... anyone know how to do that btw? Jennica?

oh, yah, I've been coloring stuff too.

I just realized I don't think I've posted one single colored thing, which is funny cause I probably end up spending more time on my coloring for comic books hw than anything else.

So, here's some lineart I was assigned, and here's how I used the 'smudge' technique for rendering the girl color. First lineart I've liked too. The color pallet was assigned too. Supposedly we will get more freedom at some point :/

Feverific

So, I've been having a fun little time with a mystery disease for the last week. Missed, school behind on hw. Generally miserable. So, here's some sketches I did two days ago, while watching Bakeneko/Mononoke looking for my senior project ideas.

Windows onto Mirrors

This took me a couple of days to hash out, hence my lack of updating. I don't know why the titular phrase stuck with me, but I liked the image, so there. It's a longer piece again, actually counts as a short story.
Are you shocked? I was shocked.
Anyway...
