haven't we been through this already?



a little pen + acrylic on watercolor paper. 9 1/2" x 13"

this could be the shortest project to date. [hopefully it doesn't show.] i finished in about four days from concept to completion. which is cool. followthrough is a trait that doesn't come naturally, so this is a milestone in a way. you can see all my mistakes if you click on the picture!

i feel pretty good about this new medium + style experiment. here's to something better in the future.

my job has some perks

so working as a nude model is pretty cool sometimes. 

[edit! haha not me but the exact same pose.]



[oh, the blonde.]
this pose was form a photo shoot. photo shoots are awesome.

[both pieces are done by zack zdrale. he's got a solo show going on at the john pence gallery until the end of the month, i think. both of these pieces are in the show, along with a bunch of my co-workers.]

and that's all. i'm currently working on another [hopefully] sweet watercolor + ink piece right now. with any luck and no distractions it'll be done in a few days.

pen + ink

these are a couple of pen + ink pieces i did after hours of flipping through a book of heinrich kley sketches. he's such a badass and i will never be at his level, but it's a good bar to reach for. dammit. 





that's pretty much it for now. i've got the next few days off so between eating, sleeping, and scrabulous there shall be posts a-plenty.

sketchbook round 1

so i was flipping through my sketchbook tonight and was disappointed. i'm running out of room for more sketches while the ones in there are... horrendous. that and the camera isn't as sharp as i thought it would be when i bought it. there's a few more that i'll upload at some point within the next few days. 

eh...

a quick study form one of those fancy clothing magazines that always get sent to me. they're worth something after all.

autographed pictures of classy hos -or- self-portrait in the fourth dimension


acrylic and ink on skateboard. diy hanging (hey hey hey).

so this was my first skateboard piece (i think.... memory fails me lately). it's still one of my favorite/better pieces. not much else to say about that.

mixed media on broken skateboard. diy hanging apparatus. 

the swiss is biting.

dinner is served. 

so, apparently the walgreens near the terminal doesn't sell bread. i have just eaten the saddest sandwich and this is a good start for my blog-reer. 

more later.
