Many Responsibilties




Ink and Watercolor assignment subject was flying machine like the Redbull Flug tag contests w/ our natural style of drawing. Mine is a organically powered flying machine...cough.
Next up is a tight pencil for my CF payne technique currently working on. The subject is actor or musician I am using Toby Maguire as my muse... awesome technique.
Post finished piece later!!

Slog N My Blog




Man oh man I have not blogged in a while(3 weeks to be exact)but Im back w/ some new projects in progress and sketches from figure drawing. This quarter I am taking an Animal Anatomy for Creature design under the Sequential art Professor Sean Crystal. I must say I am learning a lot in this class filled w/ Graduate and Undergraduate talent. I learn something new almost everyday from these talented guys. We have been going to the zoo for three weeks now(post zoo sketches later) and studying animal construction from observation and referencing The Weatherly Guide to Drawing Animals an AWEsoME BOOK!! These are my shapes that I went through to get to my creature (I will post design and final rendering later).

Figure Drawin Fridays






The Beautiful thing about attending SCAD is that we have live models come and pose... for FREE. I feel I haven't taken advantage of this blessing like I should have this quarter but I will squeeze in as much time as I can in between my busy schedule and get my groove back like Stella...

Mo' money Mo' Money!!



3rd Illustration project for my materials and techniques class. The objective was to
communicate one of four words that my professor listed:network, colloboration, investment and the last word escapes me. The target audience are banks, annual reports, or stock exchanges.
I wont tell which word I used out of the three I listed, I rather you be able to visually see it in my piece and tell me. The chosen medium for the assignment was watercolors( a medium I'm becoming very fond of) and pastels. b e z

Finished



Actually finished this 2 weeks ago but took while to scan very busy at SCAD! Decided to play more with the compliments to pop the foreground w/ the bears versus the background w/ the sunset and mountain range. Done using watercolors and colored pencil. Think I like the combination of the two mediums.
