More of the circus story...

Some delving into storyboards, as per the teacher's command. Um...these are fun to do, in that I have to think very quickly and efficiently. How can I communicate my story in so few frames? Hopefully, you get the gist of what's going on. There is a sequence of events, but there isn't really a story.

Take care.

If I may be so self-centered...


This is a bookmark my friend made. It's a picture of her (Adriana, left), me (center), and her boy Jon (right) doing the doubled-handed-death-metal-claw. I love it so much! I feel really special when she draws me; like she's thinking of me some times. I love her and Jon; they're good people. It makes me feel loved. Besides, she makes my big 80s hair metal hair seem really cool!

Take care.

The Forest Girl: Before and After




So, here's the painting. One up top is the first incarnation, which received some criticism (obviously...I mean, I go to art school...it's kind of what we do: learn to be passive aggressive).

I like the second one better; my teacher really knows his stuff, even if I think he acts jerky.

Take care.

The new girl...


I re-did my girl, as per the instructor's command.


Done digitally, of course.


And she's on her way!

Take care.

There's one with this idea...


Here they come
Here come the bastards
I heard it from a confident -
Who heard it form a confidant
They're definitely on their way
There's one with this idea
Something about a hammer head shark
Nosehairs and flatus
Best keep your distance because
Here they come here come the bastards
Bury your head deep in the sand
Anonymityis a virtue in this day and age
Amazing hand dexterity
Flagrant misuse of security
Better run, run, run, run, run
Run Run Run Run, here they come


Mixed media: acrylic and colored pencil.

Take care.

Care to humppa?



Troll forest. That girl will probably get eaten.

WIP, obviously.

Take care.

Blinded by the bright lights...

I'd run away and join it if I could...

Take care.

More tablet nonsense...


Self explanatory, really.


Our assignment was to get familiar with the tablet's basic functions. We were told to copy a portion of a marble statue. This one is Laocoon (he and his sons were killed by sea serpents, I believe).



It turned out ok, I suppose. It was my first try...

Take care.
