Scraps




The one at the top is an abstraction of Donatello the Ninja Turtle the brilliant scientist, inventor, and technology geek. He is also a true smart ass. I dont really know what the rest of scraps are. You name them for me.

Letters taste good



This was my second set. Well its not a set, but it is stationary. I plan on screenprinting now instead of using cut paper.






































This was my first stationary idea. It was for my character development class. We were supposed to make a toy but my teacher gave me permission to make stationary instead, so this is what I came up with.

Warped






So above are some selfporaits I did last year for an assignment where we had to look at a warped surface and draw a selfportrait. I decided to do series because mine were so small and did not take me that long to do. The pictures are of horrible quality, but that's ok. Im probably going to do a series of paintings of self portraits like this.

something like that..

Above is a portrait I did of a very close friend of mine. Maggie.
Above is a figure drawing I did of my friend Gabriella sleeping. I did it from a picture I took of her one night when I found her sleeping in her room with her lights on and work all around her. It was fun to take the picture but then when I did the drawing it felt completely different.
Once again these pictures are not the best of quality. Sorry.

Stiff Illustrations
















I had to choose a book, read it, and illustrate parts of it. I chose Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers. These are only four of the six I did. The other two were not as good as I wanted them to be, but I still had fun doing them.

This was for an assignment where we had to illustrate something on a menu that was given to us, it was meant to be the cover the menu. I want to do another one for this assignment cause I dont feel it enough umph to be on the cover. Still brainstorming. Any thoughts?

Playing Cards



These were for a playing card assignment. You could use any theme, just imagine them being the size of playing cards. I'm thinking about doing a series, but I dont know. I might take it in another direction.

Bloody blood blood


This was my second attempt at this composition. It was for an assignment that was about illustrating violence, so I chose blood bath. I had a lot of fun cutting out the chandelier.

I am still working on my cut paper skills. Hopefully in the next few weeks I'll post all of what I have done in the past year.
His goal in life was to be an echo.
