Red Baron

So the new assignment was to do an illustration based on the red baron.  I decided I didn't want mine to be historical so I thought I would go with a child playing with a red plane.  Thats close enough right?

Open Studio Friday

So a couple members of the art faculty hold an open open studio time each Friday between 1 and 4. It works out great becuase there is usually only the one model for the entire time so you can do quite a few drawings or knock out a sweet painting if your up to it. This has been going on as long as I have been going to school here but I have failed to take advantage of it. However, I know my drawing needs major improvement so I decided to stop by today. I decided to experiment with prismacolor and a ball point pen and this is what I ended up with.

Toast

We were given the assignment to paint toast.  Definitely a different subject matter.

Caricature self portrait

Here is a quick caricature I did today in digital illustration.  I'll add color later.  Enjoy!

Master Copy

Ok I realize that Dice Tsutsumi hasn't quite reached the title of master but his work is amazing.  The assignment was to do a copy from a piece of work from an illustrator that you like.  The idea was to maintain the painterly quality from traditional work in a digital painting.  

Arghh!!!

Here is a quick pirate painting for my digital illustration class.  The assignment was to paint a pirate head using texture and actions.  Pretty simple really. 

Warm and Cool Study

Sorry it's been a while.  I know it's not much either but I liked the way that they turned out.  This was for my design and color final.  The assignment was to do a still life using warm and cool lighting.  They are not very big only 5 x 7 but it definitely was good practice for me.  The are both gouache/charcoal on board.
