Senior
year has been pretty crazy so far-but fun!! Three art classes is the most
awesome thing I could have asked for this year. And in one of the art classes,
Digital Mixed Media, I had to make ANOTHER blog! I seem to be starting a
collection of collections of art, if that makes sense. The new blog is over on
the right side with the other links, but here’s a link up front in case you get
lost:
In
AP Art this week, me and my friends er.... dismantled
(that’s the most pleasant way of putting it) some traditional mannequins that
artists use for figure drawing and hot-glued them into a murder scene, I mean, still life that we will draw parts of in
charcoal. It’s going to be pretty interesting when it comes out. I’ll post the pictures
once it gets done.
Just
so that this post is not completely pointless, I think I’ll post some recent
doodads from my sketchbook.
I’ve
been trying to write a fantasy book for a month now, and I’ve found I
understand my characters better if I draw them (plus, awesome illustration
practice). This is my protagonist Lynna the Artful Dragon who creates pictures
with her special multi-colored fire:

This
is her friend she meets along the way, Finley the would-be princess that’s getting
chased by her cousin Farold who wants to take over the world:
Finley’s
got a friend too: Yara, the last fairy in Chromania who rules over all the
butterflies:

Another
“friend” of Finley’s, this is Vian, Farold’s BFF who used to go out with Finley
but now is chasing her down for his bro. (I only started this one yesterday)

In
addition to illustrations for a potential new book, I also have been working on
some celebrity portraits. Though it’s only about ½ done, here’s a drawing of
one of my all time favorite people, Barbra Streisand:
This
portrait of Arwen from Lord of the Rings, unlike the one of Babs, is actually
done:
And
then these are just some random things that don’t belong in any real category:
