WoW fix.

People in charge said the poem was too hard to read 'cause of the branch,
so I fixed it. Something about that clearly segregated composition makes my
skin crawl, but it's for the children, so...

And somehow the highlight on the bluejay's beak disappeared, so now that shade of light orange is only on the girl's hairties. I spent four hours discussing, adjusting, and
repackaging it so oh well. It bothers me, but it's not important.

I wish Valentine's giftwrap was actually sexy.

(This mock-up further proves my Photoshop abilities are absolutely mindblowing.)


Making interlocking patterns is still sort of hard,
or maybe I'm just dumb.

Words on Wheels

Mine got picked, which is pretty cool. I ride the bus home
from work so maybe I'll see it sometime...

this movie will probably be horrible.

Full-page for my Lifestyle/Fashion Illustration class. All of the shirts and coats are designer items but it's not super apparent. The point was to create a piece that illustrated the mood of the film without portraying actors or specific characters. I got Jonah Hex, so I basically just tried to focus on Confederate zombies and cowboy stuff. And I threw a sassy redhead in there.


This is kind of like the way I used to draw in highschool, lots of linear detail, especially with hair. Pretty much the way I draw naturally. Probably should've gone the cartoony route.

Wanton Witches Wrestle Werewolves.
It's Animalia for occultists, whee!

Stop Staring dresses, small paintings.

Acrylic, tiny. The original colors ranged from lime, teal, to aqua. My scanner decided that meant blue. Tried to fix it in Photoshop but the colors aren't too off, and the blue's sort of neat against the green flames. I was inspired by a painting of two women staring each other down, by Glenn Barr. Too bad I couldn't find it online or else I'd post it here. I got one of his art books recently, trying to decide how to use paint nowadays. His work is pretty amazing and inspiring.
