2009-03-05T03:19:00.000-08:00

i piece i did for advance computer illustration. had fun, and learned a lot.

2009-02-26T01:13:00.000-08:00

i haven't done anything for myself in a long time. actually feels good to do something that's not an assignment.

2009-02-25T03:29:00.000-08:00

i spent a total of 8 hrs on this piece. the assignment was to sell something with showing what the product was. can you guess what it is? it's a gun. comparing all of the other digital paintings i've done, i would have to say this is my favorite.

2009-02-10T22:37:00.000-08:00

Our illustration class has to do a sci-fi/fantasy illustration for some kind of museum thing so i decided to do dinosaurs. idk.

2009-02-04T12:38:00.000-08:00

my first assignment from advance computer illustration was a self portrait. i decided to be a panda.

2009-02-04T12:34:00.000-08:00

this is my first traditional illustration for my class.

2007-11-18T19:10:00.001-08:00

this was done with the oil rub technique... i think that i could have done better, but we'll see what happens.

2007-11-08T10:52:00.001-08:00

This was done for media class. We had to use acrylics and add in as much detail as we can. I a couple of previous paintings before, but was not too successful. I finally painted one that I thought was good enough.

2007-10-06T12:47:00.001-07:00

Here's is a little fun thing i did for myself. It's been a while since I worked with conte' pastels, so I thought I would do one for fun.

2007-10-06T12:45:00.001-07:00

Here's another water color practice or study. I haven't worked the real and final piece yet, but I'll post that up as soon as I'm done.

2007-10-06T12:43:00.001-07:00

We're working on a water color project for media and i thought, maybe i'll give it some practice.

2007-10-06T12:41:00.001-07:00

This is our second project, and it was done on scratch board. I say, i like this better than the fish.

fish project

2007-10-06T12:33:00.000-07:00

This is the pen and ink fish project that we for our media class. It's no the greatest, but it gave me experience with some pen and ink work.
