Drawing, Drawing. Drawing.

Just some drawings from my drawing 2 and figure drawing classes:)

Figure drawing. Hardest class ever!
One of my better drawings in the class. I think I need to take it again!
Still life... I drawed it cuz I am a drawer. That is a word! Drawer!
We got to draw our shoes! I love shoes!


So I had this idea... Snowflake in your eyes. I didn't execute as well as I would have liked because it was finals week and I had to do it in like a night...but yeah this is scratch board.
Learning about light and shadow and how to turn form:)
what a hottie
I am drawing a monkey!

Media Experimentation...its a learning process

abstract chicken... just for fun
Oil lift out.
Painting on tape!
Just a green pepper? Well I happened to spend like 30 hours on this pepper. We had to pick a very simple object like a fruit or vegetable. This is called photo realism. We had to make our object look EXACTLY like the photo. Normally as artists we don't try to copy the photo but make it our own but this was to teach us to match and mix paint to get the perfect color, to look for intricate details, and to make our hands precise.
Painting on wood.
I grew up by this little, broken down Tilden store. I was very sad when a neighbor tore it down:( It might be broken down and never used but its one of those historic parts of where you live that you never want to go away. Now it is just an empty spot.
Exaggerating colors
Surreal lookin flowers. Experimenting with line and color.
