bird world

a surrealism assignment for painting 1. done in acrylics.

first logos

The first actual course towards my degree that isn't just a painting or drawing or printmaking class - but a graphic design class. And here are my first logos for real companies here in austin made for this first class. They were required to be done by hand...so you'll have to excuse the imperfections.

Prints!

I am so excited about printmaking this semester. I just love the entire process...deciding on your composition, carving the linoleum, inking it, printing it. And its like a surprise everytime - a consistent surprise. Anyways, here is a proof on newsprint of the first project. I'll put up an official print in a week or so.

life drawings

I took life drawing for the first time this summer for school. We worked in charcoal, watercolor, conte, ink, and graphite. Here are a few of my favorites.

dollies

a collage i made last night...for some reason it reminds me of my mom and me.

photoshop fun

just playing around with filters...my original intent was to simplify a pic of shelby and to paint it out...i didn't make it that far.

old work...filling space

I figured I'd post two projects completed last semester in a color theory class. because, well, i like them - they are one of my first attempts at working with acrylic. someday, i'll master those oils... they're each about 15 by 20 inches. and yes, thats me.
