November 2012

Stuff I did this month.
Lots of works in progress, got to have them finished by next week.

Did this for my the inside of my father's pocket watch. Its his mother or my grandmother.

Study in oil.

And some pretty ladies.

Timeless

Heres stuff I've drawn since I've been apprenticing at Timeless Tattoo.

BUT WAIT!! Theres more!!

This is an extra large charcoal drawing of my wonderful boyfriend.

 

Heres a photo for size reference. 

Another very early self portrait

This was done entirely in stippling.

And this was an assignment to see which students could take to most suffering.

Hahaha.

Oh my, a mass upload

Here is a ton of my work, some is older.

I'll start with a pair of from life figure drawings.

Here are a couple sketches

Some more illustrative work. Spray Paint Hero used to be my handle online, thats why you may see SPH on some of these. These are older, before I started taking life drawing and painting classes.

The first of these is one of my very few attempts at photoshop and the tablet I have.

The second is done in marker.

Hawk girl. In case you couldn't tell, haha.

This is a Eugene Hutz of the band Gogol Bordello

This is the design I drew for the first tattoo I ever got.

She's on my shoulder.

And lastly, something I drew in high school, so you can see how much I've improved.

Thanks all!

Its been far to long since I last posed so here are a few.

This a another life size sculpture, it was never fully refined or complete, but it was the first life size that I attempted and I'm rather fond of the back view.

I worked on it for half of a semester, from a live model.

This was done in charcoal and graphite.

It also happens to be a self portrait.

I don't consider it finished, at some point I'd like to have another pass at it, and bring in a lot more contrast.

I consider badgers to be my spirit animal, because I like to sleep in warm claustrophobic places, and generally unpleasant if disturbed.

This painting was done in oil on stretched canvas.

The concept was to depict time.

Instead of depicting how time affects things slowly, I chose to show everything that can happen in an instant.

This was my personal favorite of everything I created this year.

I don't particularly think that it is my best technically painted piece, but it was the first time that I was able it invasion the completed piece before I painted it, and actually get something close to that vision.

Thats all for now.

Thanks so much for looking.

As I find it harder and harder to pay rent, I'm offering ''9 x ''12 oil portraits for $75, or ''9 x ''12 Drawings for $50.

Here are a couple photos from the last session with the model for the life size sculpture.
They were taken by either Marianne O'barr or Raymond Persinger, the couple that run the sculpture department at LCAD.

First I have a sketch I did of my dog who passed this year.

And I have a photo of a place I plan to paint later.
Its a house or something that burned down years ago, located on the long drive to a place I used to live.
I like the shadows the walls cast, and the little windows to sky and hillside.

Alright, so today I have the finished work from my final classes.

First I have the finished full version of the old man in the very first post.

Next I have the finished full version of the woman I'm also sculpting.

The colors in this image are still a little strange, I've ha a lot of trouble getting a good shot.

And lastly I've got something that I haven't posted yet, and thats my final self portrait.

Thanks for looking.

Today I've got the watercolor of the still from The Island of Lost Souls that I talked about.

And then I have something I did while I should have been paying attention during a meeting at work.

Tonight I have a watercolor painting I finished in the wee hours of this morning.
Its painted from a still from 2001 a Space Odyssey. :)
I'm doing another from The Island of Lost Souls tonight/ tomorrow.

This is a relief of a friend of mine.
Steves white clay, 18'' x 24''

It is a busy week.
Here are two things I worked on of the same model.
Neither is finished, I have one six hour session left for the painting, and two six hour sessions left for the sculpture.

I've been working on this sculpture for the whole semester, its life size and has an internal supporting armature. Its made of clay (specifically long beach), and its the first time I've done a full life size figure.





I worked on this painting for 2 sessions so far, and have one left.
The colors are a little saturated in the photo, and I hope I can get a clearer one when its finished.
