So I started this painting at the end of last week, did a bunch of sketchs and thought that this composition was the best.

I've entered it into a gallery show, and will see if its accepted.
overall i'm moderatly happy with this.

That being said, yes there is a lot that I could do to make this better. I could change the composition and do all sorts of other stuff. But I am my own worst critic because I often get the sense that my digital work just isn't as strong as my traditional. It's just something that i'm going to have to work on.

I do ask though that you take the time to comment and critique this piece because i can't improve my skills without knowing what needs to be improved.  Thanks-Michelle

Ahh 3 weeks in a row. Although this week was a close call because of other duties I needed to do. I started sketching for this on wednesday, but didn't start anything until today, thursday. This was done all in photoshop CS3 and it is for the theme of Duet:

my favorite part of this piece was drawing the hippo. enjoy and please comment or critique this, trust me i can take it.

Illustration Friday 3/31/11

So this week's theme is 'Toys' this popped into my head and would not let go. I decided to just leave it as the pen work because I liked it. I may go back and color this later but the pens scratchy-ness and the simple black and white design works a lot better.

done on regular paper, with a left handed pen my mother bought me. You have the toy playing with his toys.

Cultivate

So i started this piece with an entirely different composition. Then decided one night right before I went to sleep that I need to change the composition because it just wasn't working. Working around I took that Pot that it was working on brought into a different file and came up with this. The flowers and bee spell out the word cultivate.


Photoshop cs3.

And trust me this is a big deal. :)

Disney Villians

This was done last year for another art collaboration entitles 'Disney Villians' I had a lot of fun with this piece trying to find the right look for the character. I mean how can one not like a villian that is both evil, still cries out for his mommy and sucks his thumb?here is Prince John 

I love doing these type of things because i get a chance to work with fellow artists and i get a chance to do fun stuff in between work stuff. Disney Villian Collab.


Keep an eye out in the following weeks because by my 25th birthday I should have a whole new set of portolio pieces if not a portfolio to display. I will also have my website up dammit even if it kills me. Ohh and is anyone interested in seeing my daily sketchs? is so let me know and i'll start posting them. Thanks  and have a great day.

Ohh p.s. I have a twitter account now....twitter account
