Winter Break is almost over!!!

Survey went very well. All my work was submitted to SOI again. I won something last year, so I don't think I will again. My friend took this, a little blurry and you can't see my oil paintings which were lined up on the floor because I ran out of space.


Here some job I did for Metical Records, a record label. SO MANY REVISIONS! Like over 10, but here is just a few plus the logo (I didn't do the logo). We were trying to "goth" her up without losing her in the background (black). Now back to work on my client's garden book...

Blue? Green?

I've painted so much today I can't tell what color is what anymore. I had to paint my painting final this morning but thats not posted. I have to take pictures of some of the work I've been doing in Life Study class. Couple things from my book, I'm using more contrast and cooler colors and am liking the change.

Some Finished Paintings for Rudy

So finished paintings for one of my senior project classes. I have a ton of other things finished too, but this is all ready for printing and reproducing so I have nice files. I think I need more ram. Any artists reading this, how much ram do you have? The triptych piece is I think 19x62 and I'm sure the lagging size tacked about an hour or two onto computer time. Frustrating.

Triptych. "Hate, Lust, Love"
It lines up and you really have to see it in person because the computer screen limits your viewing ability.





This other thing is the tee shirt colored with a dropped in background.

Oh My!

I do so much work I forget what I posted last. I'll just wait until the end of the semester to post whatever, but I took a picture of this to show my friend and figured I'd post it here too. Its for a tee-shirt. (Or maybe tee-shirts if I find myself with nothing to do over winter break). I still have to texture all the fur, fill in the stripes, then play around with the new inky things I've been doing (I haven't posted any of that stuff here yet).

New York Observer

I'm not feeling well at all, but then I woke up to the e-mail telling me my illustration is going to be in the New York Observer. My first editorial piece published. Now I have galleries, children's books, and this.

Here is the illustration. I don't like it that much, just because I didn't find much interest with the book review. It is a memoir of a wife who is dealing with her once brilliant husband's decreasing physical and mental capability. Its printing 4x6 which explains the not much detail.



Also here is new sketches for my children's book.



Here is another finished spread of my client's book. I really like this page. It needs some revisions. I have a bunch of these done. I really want to show them, but meh... don't want to spoil it.
