Putting your "all" into it.



I originally drew this one year ago and had planned on turning it into a screen print, but my job duties at the time got in the way. I put it on hold until about two weeks ago, and, having recently been introduced to Adobe Illustrator, I took a stab at coloring it digitally. My favorite part about using Illustrator was the fact that I could change the color of each line individually. It was a whole lot of fun and I'm pretty happy with the result. I hope that you enjoy it too! (but would love constructive criticism if you have it!). Clicking on the image will open a larger version of it (which works on all posts, by the way).

Isometric Seated Figure




I made this in Adobe Illustrator from a sketch that I drew. It is supposed to be a seated figure with folded hands and a bowed head. I was reading about isometric perspective, so that is what type of perspective I used here.

Laughing Monsters



Just a silly sketch I made yesterday. I might try to make some of these characters into woodcuts.

Value Study for Etching



This is a value study for an etching I am working on. The sky is not how it will look. Will post that soon.

Etching Mockup



This is the beginning of a 12" x 12" copper plate etching. I have etched this line drawing into the plate and the next step is to add lighting. I am working on some value studies right now.

Watercolor



This is a watercolor sketch that I recently painted. It's very loosely based off of a temple in Kashmir that I found in a Hindu art and architecture book. I'm just starting with watercolor again and this is how I'm getting used to it.

Almost finished!

I'm almost finished with the new screen print. If the fates allow, I will have ten shiny new prints for the BMA print fair by 2:00 AM! I will take a photo and post it A.S.A.P. This is the largest image I have ever printed before and it has been a learning experience.
