Pine-cone Tutus and Eczema

Everything has it's problems. Fortunately the problems with these two pieces can be pawned off on artistic expression. The androgynous pregnant owl pine-cone tutu thing is a school project. Just some graphite and charcoal and chalk.




















This portrait, on the other hand, is not a school project. It's of a friend of mine and I've kind of given her skin problems in the painting. It was getting a little boring as just a portrait so I gave her eczema and rosacea. Hope she doesn't mind. It's acrylics on a medium sized canvas.

This is a self-portrait (kind of). I just wanted to experiment with this sponge brush I've had since I first started painting. I think it gave the painting a nice structured look without sacrificing the brush-like texture. Gladly, this painting only took about half an hour.

Acrylics on Board.

Here is the first layer to a few paintings. They will eventually be just little ghost images behind three or four layers of new paintings.

The Party Planner

My dad pointed out that it just looks like a bunch of arrows pointing towards her boob. That works for me.

This is from my final art project in ART CLASS. We had to make an accordion book about us using a phrase or word as a basis for all the drawings. I chose the word Minimalist and my panels were simple illustrations of a few things that make up my life (People excluded).

A few of these were hastily done and the photo quality made these a bit warmer and blurrier than they really are.

Panels: Food, Painting, Bathroom, Plaid, Sleep, Hygiene.







Bears in progress.
