Figure Drawing!

FALL 2011: NOT OIL!!

The first is a figure drawing distortion piece, the second is my final for figure drawing, the third is the thumbnail for it which I like a lot more than the finished piece because I like the energy in it, the fourth is a figure drawing assignment of two figures in one piece, the fifth, sixth, and seventh are figure drawings done at the pod.

Fall 2011: OIL!

Another semester of TAD down, two more to go. This past semester was definitely really hard, and very focused on oil painting. I really need to update my blog on a regular basis to avoid large art dumps. For this post, they are all oil paintings!

The first one is a plein air, the second is a pear study painted with the help of Josh George, the third is my final for still life painting, and it's my biggest painting yet although I cannot remember the size at the moment, the fourth is an hour long quick painting of sardines under a light (so the smell will make you paint faster), the fifth is a figure painting using the Zorn palette, the sixth is a painting of a sculpture that Jon Foster made, and the seventh is a figure painting of my good friend Kaitlin Demayo in her Hans Solo costume.

Today I took a break away from projects to hang out with Chris and Chris. We’ve been best friends since around 2005. Watching Chris (bottom sketch) slaughter townsfolk in Skyrim, eating Richmond’s famous Bottoms Up, drinking beer and laughing ‘til we cried at Boondocks Season 3 were the activities of the night. They look so full of life.

Robot parts and light bulbs. Studies for an upcoming piece.

TAD Project Update

This project I've been working on has been taking most of my time. It's a comic I'm planning to have completed very soon. The only thing I'll reveal about this for now is: Mongolia. It's been exciting for me to be working on this, so keep an eye out for more information!
