mass update 2

Here's my final for my hand letters class with Whitney Sherman. The assignment was to make a calendar (almost) entirely out of hand-lettering. It took far too long to make but I guess I'm pretty proud of it.



















here's one of my wonderfully framed prints that I sold a few of at the MICA Art Market last week. w00 for Michael's craft frames.


also, buttons!


and since i haven't posted anything from my figure drawing class this semester, I'm posting these two piczzzz. one's drawn with charcoal on bright white johannot and the other is drawn on rives bfk with india ink and a plastic fork. guess which is which. held up by my roomie/dawwwwg mitchell james.

ill1 finalz

Here's the triptych final that was for my illustration 1 class. I created a series of illustration for environmentally-oriented articles. First is from Utne and is about African Eco-rangers, the second is for an article also from Utne about making dead people into pencils, and the last one is about eco-friendly logging companies from Mother Jones.

Mass update 1

Still doing tons of school work. I'll upload sketchbooks and whatnot eventually but here's 2 assignments. The first is an alphabet made of my shoelaces for my hand letters class:



and the second is a diptych for my illustration 1 class that's supposed to illustrate one of the 7 deadly sins and its counter virtue. I did patience and wrath.



expect some large sketchbooks updates in the near future.

well classes have started up again so i'll be updating less and being much more swamped with work. life drawing is going be the death of me but if i somehow survive I think i'll be a figure drawing beast. fingers crossed! here's a bit of what i've been working on for hand-letters with whitney sherman and visual journalism with warren linn

































expect some snazzy new stuff within the upcoming semester!
