weekly art challenge
limited palettes are always cool. color is an elusive beast I know not how to tame.



I could really go for some Jurassic Park, but that's probably because my sister's been visiting. And if you know nothing else of her likes, know that is her favorite movie ever. Did you know it came out 20 years ago next year? 1993! 1993! I saw that damn movie in the theater as a kid.

I'm dating myself. haha.

warmup

warmup for today.







for years we haven't had thanksgiving on the day of. it's just another day, the only celebration is the parade. my mom used to always have to work, so we'd have it the day after.
but anymore it's just a tradition to invite everyone unrelated to us and have a shindig.

therefore tomorrow is our thanksgiving. my main concern is that I don't want to cut my feet off by the end of the day. and that a particular person attends because I know me. and if they aren't there, then I'll have a cloud over my head all day.

anyhow. I hope your Thanksgiving was great and that you ate way too much and were genuinely grateful that you had that opportunity. even if you didn't get to eat a bunch of warm homemade food, remember this: pizza is always there.

pre/post finals

I'm back home for winter break. I've detoxed over the last 2 days and now I'll be back into being productive. as hard as it'll be with turkey looming in the distance and my sister coming in from LA tomorrow.

So, here's some of the projects from the last few weeks of the quarter.


yeah, washington arch is much bigger. wanna fight about it? 
added colors with photoshop.



3 point perspective. not inspired by Wreck it Ralph. I haven't even seen it yet! 
added colors with photoshop.





A comic based on the Norse poem "Loki's Quarrel"
It goes basically like this:
The Norse gods throw this shindig, and someone brings this awesome mead.
Loki, of course, isn't invited.
He gate crashes the party, demands ale and a seat.
He then proceeds to insult everyone at the table.

Poor Loki. Just invite him to the party next time, you jerks!
watercolor, coffee, collage, thread, and tracing paper.




We had to pick a cult film/show and make an illustration. Clearly, I had no choice.
Oh captain, my captain. YOU CAN'T TAKE THE SKY FROM ME.
 watercolor.


me thinks a portrait is in order...

Some sketches from my sketchbook.


I will probably elaborate on a few of them. Ryan Gosling's jacket....mmmm.
 I'm going to participate in this 30 day character design thing my roommate told me about.  Just...3 days late.

so here's a warmup!



I bow down to women who wear heels consistently. I don't even think I own a pair. I have some cowboy boots that I got recently. I can see the merit in the way they make you walk...

fell a little behind on daily posts, midterms snuck up on me and I've been struggling with my script writing class. I'm not a writer! it is in an uphill climb.

I've been making my friend a playlist every month and sending it to him via snail mail. I'm a little behind for October, but I'll be sending it tomorrow. here's the cover. and excuse to play with my copics.


I've been sketching a lot, I swear. I just haven't been able to post it because I have to scan everything and my scanner is an abomination. 

So here's something I did for Halloween that I posted on my tumblr. It started out as a pencil sketch.


I won't post much fanart here, but I rather liked giving the Doctor and Rose costumes of 2 other characters I adore. Plus it's Doctor Who. 

I like to draw Ten when I don't know what else to draw.
