More stuff from illustration and a overly sentimental peace.





Did these over the course of the last six months. I've been thinking alot about non representation art/Modernism vs. Classical art/Old Masters stuff. It's probably because of the Art Renewal website with essays by Fred Ross that I'm reading. I'll probably have more collected thoughts about it in a future post.
P.S Sorry about the less than stellar photography.

Some Life Drawing.



Costumed models from Spring Semester.
These two were from a series of ideas we did in the same character design class. A bear with insomnia and a chicken rapper.

More Drawlings.







I had a teacher at my community college who always pronounced it with an L sound, he was a very cool teacher. Made it into Spectrum's annual magazine once.

Here are some sketches from the design class I mentioned. This is from a story idea that's been in my head for a couple of years.

Bird reading scroll.





This project was for my illustration class, but I came up with the story idea several years ago. I figure the illustration class is a perfect way to refine my idea so that I can someday use it in children's book illustration forum. For those who are curious this was done with graphite (underdrawing) and soft pastels on a cold pressed illustration board, and the theme was fall reading.

Hope you like it.

Welcome to my blog everyone.

My character design teacher encouraged me to get on the bandwagon so I did. Truth be told I always thought the term blog was kind of stupid but the concept isn't. Anyway, hopefully at some point I say or post something that interests you.

Test.
