thesis preview


The senior thesis show for illustration is happening Arpil 30th! By then I'll have all of these done. I'm doing a series of updated, less conventional versions of villainesses from fairy tales/children's stories. Right now the main two I'm working on are Milificent (Sleeping Beauty) and the Queen of Hearts (Alice in Wonderland). So I'm super stoked to get them all done.IF any of you folks are in Sarasota come to the show!

Here's what I'm working on...

latest




These are just some of the projects I've been doing in media class. One is from the first pen and ink assignment we did, then added a little photoshop magic to add in some color and details. the two watercolors are for the same class, one with colored line, and one with out. I'm currently working on the same subject but in gouache which has been pretty fun.

poison: final






I finished the piece I was working on for society. It's all ink, pastel, and pencil. When I finished it traditionally, I went in and tweaked it digitally to make certain things pop or recede. So here's two versions, one with some 'photoshop magic," and the traditional media version.

new stuff




I'm working on a new piece to hopefully submit to society of illustrators next week. So far I have sample of how it's going to be executed, and a finished sketch that I'm going to transfer in a couple minutes. I'm pretty stoked to get this one done in the next day or two :]

"strange" series turn out


So I finished up my last portrait, and put some little details in it. It's dark and moody, and I'm definitely going to do more of it. So that's it for the week, no more work until after Thanksgiving! I'll be eating tons of food and trying to get my sleep schedule back to normal.... or something like it.

strange


I'm working on a series of odd but kind of sophisticated portraits for illustration. They're done in ink and gouache, then finished off digitally. A third is on the way, and there's a couple graphic elements left to incorporate.

flyer


My buddy asked me to do a flyer for the photo departments upcoming fashion show. It's kinda neat, they have designers who's garments they're photographing and putting on a legit show. I'm actually going to be doing some make-up for the show so I'm pretty stoked. If you're on campus, come check it out!
