Another Work In Progress

Art is a Monster

My friend Beth Tokar and I have a show up right now at NWC in an office-turned-gallery. We titled it, "Art Is a Monster" as we are both working on monster related art, though I think we interpreted the idea of a monster differently, the two ideas worked together nicely. Below are my paintings in the show. I interpreted the idea of a monster as something unapproachable which is fitting to studio art for me as I have always found fine art to be unapproachable in a sense. There is one thing you are missing when looking at these photos (apart that photos flatten paintings....) in that I made the gallery space smell kind of gross by a mix of the smell of the black paint and fish sauce I put on the black painting. Anyways, if you have the chance, stop by, the show is up until the end of the week.

Work In Progress

Just a preview of an animation-related thing I'm working on that is not quite finished. That's all I'll explain for now, but lets hope this project will be done by Friday, if not Tuesday.

Spring Break Drawings

Wow two posts from in a day, no way! That's what happens when I'm on spring break and actually have time to draw. Here's some drawings from Spring Break itself:

And here's a preview to a new character I'm working on that fits in with my aardvark character. You'll be seeing him a bit more soon.

The Terminal

Thanks to fog and late planes, I spent a total 12 hours in the Milwaukee airport over the past week. Fortunately, the time went by fast thanks to all the great people to draw and I actually managed to fill out a small sketchbook just with airtport drawings. Here are some of the better drawings I did:

Mixed Media Experiment

Just an extensive experiment from my sketchbook. A mix of watercolor, pen, marker and glitter glue. I didn't really think of composition when making this as I didn't think much would come of it when I started so that's kind of lacking, but I love how all the mediums worked together. More mixed media to come, that's for sure.

Maya Character Posing

Posting this because a few friends asked me to. These are from a one-day assignment for my 3D animation class. We had to do 20 different poses, so here are a few I thought were the best. They're really not terribly exciting, but enjoy.
