a couple of sketchbook pages. Ive been busy with schoolwork so I haven't had much time for the ol' moleskine.

getting in the halloween spirit

long day

after spending the majority of my day in the lab, this is the only thing that I somewhat like.  Oil on board then tweaked in photoshop. 

What do you think...Ladies?

Fun experiment, that's about all I have to say about this.

Hello, everybody. Got some exciting news. My sketchbook got into Illest of Ill, and for those who don't know what that is, it is a student run gallery showcasing some of the top Illustration student work. This year it was judged by visiting artist Andrew Hem. Tonight is the opening and Im pretty stoked to see what else was chosen.

As for this post, these are some watercolors from Brandes' media class, which I then amped up in photoshop (to make it look better so don't judge ;) ). I've been having a lot of fun with these, I hope you enjoy.

rough thumbnails for Casmer. Illustrating a short story about a brain surgeon. Everyone in class is doing the same story so im interested in where others will take the illustration.

What are some thoughts with the ink for the thumbnails? Does it work visually? Let me know.

Finally!

This is my first illustration for my illustration class taught by the department head, Tom Casmer. The assignment was to pick a phobia and I chose Athazagoraphobia, which is the fear of being forgotten. I tried to get the mood, I hope it worked.
