Illustration Friday - Wise

Did someone take the keys? Why in the middle of the night? Who has what it takes?

My tribute to Edward Gorey.

I tried my best to make this visually interesting, since I felt the concept was kind of abstract/weak. Besides, everyone else was drawing owls and I wanted mine to be a little bit different.

Take care.

Illustration Friay - Vacant

Well, when my friend announced to our class that this week's topic was "vacant," she failed to enunciate the "t," and our teacher thought she said "bacon." I didn't want to lose the idea of bacon, since I thought it was so funny. So, I did my best to convey "vacant bacon."

SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME BONUS ILLUSTRATION:


When I think of "vacant" sans bacon, I think of Johnny Rotten's strange gaze, so I did a picture of that as well. Don't get used to it.

Take care.

GO AMERICA!

Thanks for the economic crisis, America! I didn't want to make money or anything. That'd make me a sell out.

Watercolor and pencils on illustration board.

Take care.

EDIT: My teacher hated this and told me to do it over.

Robits 101

I maded some robits! :D Our teacher asked us to design 2 robots and we had to show a cultural influence. I'll let you figure out wear these robits come from.

Hopefully, I can get some more hand drawn stuff up here. My children's book illustrations are looking pretty good (in my opinion), so maybe I'll get that up here next.

Take care.

Loteria designs

Our next communication studio project is to redesign the famous loteria cards. This is a game similar to bingo; there are no numbers or letters, though. It's these iconic images.

Loteria Cards

We (the class) picked numbers at random and I picked 3, 7, and 42. The Lady, the Ladder, and The Skull.



I think this was the most difficult: making a ladder interesting. I tried to think out of the box a bit by making a diagram, a pool ladder, and a depiction of the wrestling maneuver.




The Lady was a lot of fun. The first 2 have to do with the female body. The last one is a cross dresser/drag queen.





The skulls were fun too. The top ones kind of play with the idea of skulls making faces or having expressions and personalities. The second one is a skull influenced by a lot of music, mainly psychobilly and punk.

Take care.
