Still has a ways to go.

Miles to go...

Art is mileage


And many more miles to go.

"Ethereal" painting



My first painting done in gouache in several years now. Still working with it, but happy for how this turned out.

Another Progress Drawing


When this is done, I'll go back and post the thumbnails it took to get to this. I've got about a week to paint this plus my other illustration, so busy week ahead - I'll post that when it is done too.

Color comps


These are color comps that I did for an illustration that I'm currently working on. They were done in gouache, which I'm trying to relearn.

Cars


A Birthday card I did for my cousin who is turning 8 and loves Cars. The logo didn't come out great, but I'm mostly satisfied with everything else.

More Watercolor Studies




More studies I've done - this time of things from Africa that my Dad brought me versus technology from today. I still remember George repeatedly rubbing the fabric in the final color painting - that was better to me than anything said. :)

Watercolor Setting





Some watercolor paintings I did a few months back but never got around to posting because they were far too difficult to piece together after scanning. (Thank you Erik & CS5!)

Anyway, these were locations studies I did on campus in front of the McIntosh building at different times of the day - starting with a black and white study, then morning, afternoon, and evening. I'm most pleased with the morning and especially evening study.

Spreads






Some spreads I did for my sequential project, about a goose who gets too fat and cannot fly any more. Most of it was done on the computer save for the textures, which I painted and scanned into the computer.

Trees


We just recently had our big senior BFA show which is where I showed this piece for the first time. Another piece for my story for children, this shows Grubby and Mant looking down the tree where they live, ready to make their long trek....to live in another tree.

The BFA show, by the way, was a huge success and a ton of fun. I am very proud to have showcased my work with almost 50 other artists, each one bringing something different to the table. We had people with films, shadowboxes, lamps, even ouija boards. What an experience.

Movin' along....


I had a lot of fun with Grubby's size versus the dog. :)

Flower studies

Flower studies done recently, one on Yupo paper (very plastic-y, doesn't absorb water at all).

Background


This is the world that Grubby and Mant live in - very happy and cheerful.

Grubby & Mant



Some character designs I did over this last semester. This is a story about two friends who decide to move from one tree to another because the frogs croak too loud at night. It's a fun adventure story aimed at children. More on this concept to come. :)
