Holy crap i'm updating. This is probably a sign of the apocalypse. Some draw offs that have been loafing around in my sketchbook. I might be unlazy and update on a semi-regular basis. Then again probably not.
I never want to hear the word thesis after I am done all of these paintings. Here are the first 2 of 4 and they are taking forever because I want them to look awesome. They were a little bit wet so there is a bit of glare on the scans but I tried to reduce it to as little as possible. Hopefully the other two turn out well. Right now I am on the library picture and it is like running a decathlon with a brush because I never paint this big. Incidentally I've never run a decathlon either.
so thesis work is bogging me down and nothing is finished yet so here is a filler piece from an elective class i am taking this year called Alternative Illustration Techniques. I took the class because we get to sculpt but our first project was collage'. I don't do collage' because cut paper is evil so i did a digital version and all it had to be was of a portrait of someone recognizable. You may have seen this guy before from a little known franchise. My first collage since freshman year and the ones i did then were atrocious so this could be assumed as more of my first semi-serious attempt. Made entirely out of pieces from the movies. (the only thing to make a lightsaber out of...is more lightsabers. Plus i snuck a wookie into his neck.)
so classes are swamping with upcoming paintings, i have a long overdue mentorship painting to complete, and i gotta worry about getting all that junk framed and ready for the senior show. At least shutter island was amazing. here are some sketches for my thesis paintings.
