Christmas Card

This is a nice little piece of propaganda- I mean *gift* that I may be sending to all my friends and relatives. Showing them that I care about them, and encouraging them to hire me, or tell their friends to hire me, for design/illustration/freelance work.

Yay! Shameless self-promotion!

Enjoy the beginning of the holiday season :)

I made it look better.

Digital stuff

Digital illustration portraits: original, iconic, abstract, and literal.

I don't like it, but I have time to fix it.

Animal and bird painting practice

I'm trying to improve in painting birds and animals, and I'm trying also to get better with using guaches and watercolor. SO.

Turkey Vulture. Watercolor and watercolor pencil.

Elk. Watercolor, gouaches, ink.

Of course, the lighting in my kitchen is bad, and my point and shoot camera is worse, so these look nicer inn real life.
We just got a tree for the apartment. I'm pretty tired from hauling that and the groceries up with one of my apartment mates..... gah.

Works in Progress

Working on projects for my watercolor and gouaches class. I have to make at least 3 panels about the street that the art building is on.
So. Here is the work in progress:
They are sideways because my camera is a piece of poop and I'm lazy right now.

Second panel

I found this and wanted to share it.

Watercolor and Guaches Practice

I've been doing some more practice with watercolor and guaches for my class. Also because I really need to get better with these media. I think that I'm making progress. And I'm staying home this weekend, so I can do some more hardcore painting practice.

Self portrait for class. Guaches

My camera is poop, so they're kind of blurry. I've done some figure drawing also, so when I get around to it I might post it. I think that I might play with these in Illustrator or Photoshop also.
