dear

Definitely been a year. Shhhh.

I'm going to skip the apologies to the three people that would actually like me to post more, and move straight to...

I've been doing some experimenting on a Cintiq tablet, and I like where this deer is going. I'd really like to put some textures on it in Photoshop or something, but you git the gist.

AP testing is officially OVER! Let the smiles fall on me! Here are the last concentrations of my steampunk series.

I'm Colonel Rhinoceros Hypothesis

My 6th concentration. I really need to crank these out by the end of this week, hence the sad excuse you see before you.

Anudder Concentration

I'm also using this piece in my "Breadth" section because of the varying media use: watercolor, ink pen, prismacolor, and chalk pastel.

Figure Drawing

These are a few figure studies that I've come up with in the last two weeks. Two came from my new figure drawing book "The Figure" by Walt Reed. I hear through the grapevine its a pretty well-known book. Two others are freehanded studies of proportion and the muscles and the last is my buddy Tyler rappelling last year.

Also, on an unrelated note: I am not a fan of the new Blogger. It's throwing me off big time.

Two Dudes, a Chair, and a House

Olan Rogers - My film directing hero


My art teacher, T-Pack


Value study


323 East Gillman Lane, Pleasant Grove, Utah (which took me FOREVER)
2-Point Perspective study

Concentrating...

Here are more concentrations (pieces of the same series) for the AP board that I did in class.

Basically the series theme is "Steampunk-Style Animals" which I thought would be cool at the beginning of the year but now, if it weren't too late in the game, I would change it. I still have a lot of fun doing it, I've just come up with better (and less weird) ideas.
