Did you see the Jaundice going around?

So I have taken a bit of a Christmas break. But to appease the blog gods here is a little sketch I did on my NEW wacom tablet! Which means I did it completely on the computer, and drew it and colored it in photoshop. It's pretty much the best thing ever.

She is escaping jaundice.

Inspiration Comes When Your Not Even Looking

So my near and dear friend Danielle informed me that she reads my blog! And not only that, but she has a suggestion for a featured artist.

David Shrigley. He mixes high brow and low brow (heavy on the low) art.
And after looking at his stuff, I felt inspired myself.

So this first one is basically full on Shringley style.


The second one I took some creative liberties and made it more my own. I really like it.




So thanks Danielle for the suggestion!!
Also, I started this blog for my drawing 2 class, but it is definitely something I am going to keep because I really enjoy it. So don't fret! The posting won't stop!

Zac Efron=Home run.

So because of neodroid I was informed that everyone was hanging out with Zac Efron. Why Zac Efron? I have no idea, but I didn't want to be uncool, so here's what I did with him.

To see more adventures of Zac, just follow the link to more links.

As promised.... art.

Slowly but surely here comes the art I promised. Lately I have been drawing fashion ads. Here are a few that I have sketched.



This one is my favorite.


And I did some experimenting. Sharpie on layered post-it notes.

Cool Purchases

So I support other artist by buying really cool stuff they make.... occasionally.

Today I got this charm at the art walk....(I am a sucker for a pink gazelle)
(Look how happy I am to own this!)
And the cool part is I have seen this girl's etsy account before and thought it was really cool before I saw her tonight. So here it is if you want to look into her stuff.

And I may or may not have purchased one of Kate Beaton's shirts online that look a little something like this.....

Cool Things On The Internet...

Look forward to my art post(s) coming this week..... sometime.
In the mean time explore some minim, opposite of maxims. It's classic sayings, only twisted by a small change to make them meaningless. Cleaver.

"Time Heals All Nonfatal Wounds"

Artist you should know....

Post Card

So I thought I'd post a postcard I made and plan to send to my brother when I get a second. It reminds me of Napoleon (but I'm sure others would say Elvis). I really hate how I did the text, the font is all wrong for the subject! That'll teach me to just draw what I want instead of thinking about it!


What I wish it would look more like....

T-shirt design

A little something I made the the community service sorority here at Flagler. It seems so simple but took me a couple hours, makes me just realize that I am not very good at making things from scratch... or on illustrator. There was a lot of fighting, but I really like the result. Hopefully so will the other girls and they will make this a shirt!

Another Comic!

The first part is an actual conversation I overheard in art history class, it was so funny, I immediately knew I needed to make a comic.

COMICS

Horray! I have been trying to expirement with comic panels and different emotions. I got inspired after reading Andrew Lorenzi. Sometimes I feel like I don't show people the real me, and then they think I have no personality. NOT the case. Anyways, I am sure these images would look nicer if I took the time to erase the pencil lines.... but that will probably be my downfall because I can never be bothered to do that! Oh well. Sorry about my scan quality, and remember to click to make 'em bigger! Enjoy.

MORE Cool Things On The Internet...

So I quick update, I am in Orlando for the weekend, but I found some awesome links. My endless hours of wasting time on the internet has finally paid off!
