Presentations



Job Well Done by everyone in class.. I enjoyed viewing everyone else's work and ideas and how we all differ from one another. Now what comes ahead is the Fine Arts Seminar Exhibition which I look forward too except I just found out I have 3D that Thursday in Lincoln which I thought night classes where done with this week as well =(... Not sure how Ill be able to but ill try to make it to the show though my class is from 6-10pm... I'm really bummed about that, but I will definitely stop by early to drop off the sandwiches artwork and what ever else I need to bring. Well  heres a couple of slides that i wanted to post up on here...

New Updates of old work



Heres a couple of images that I wanted to post. The 1st is a drawing I did for Graphic Design with Sarah Ladds back in 07' the original was just a sketch but then I scanned it and worked on it with photoshop; doesn't have a title but I like to call it "Pencil Beating Up Paper" and the other, is another one of my handkerchiefs I did in 06' titled "High On Love"

Stamps...


Well I found these old stamps and for some reason I decided to take a picture of them. I'm not sure if they're worth anything, I did a little bit of research but no luck. Well here's the picture if anyone is interested or collects stamps? 

Photoshop Trick


Just wanted to come on here and post the handkerchief image the professor took a picture of yesteday.. At first it was really blue but thanks to Lynn, who showed me how to change the black and white settings on it in photoshop I was able to come up with this..

Animation

I've been a fan of animation for as long as I can remember. It's actually one of the subjects I would like to get into with my art. Yesterday I went to watch Coraline and it was great. The storyline could of been a little better I guess, but the slow stop animation was really cool. I'm a huge fan of dark art ex: Tim Burton stuff. I am currently working on my own stop motion animation can't wait to post it up and see what everyone thinks. For now here are a couple of videos I find interesting! One of them is called the Muto Wall by an artist name BLU and the other is called Minilogue/hitchhikers choice by Kristofer Strom

Old school..


Some old school pen and ink fine line art on a handkerchief I did back in the 11th grade.. It's titled "Crazy Dream" it's actually larger than what it appears; some of it was cut off I didn't take a great picture.  Handkerchief or "Pano Arte" is a Chicano/ Latino art form that originated in the Southwest prisons in the 1940's or 50's. I have a large collection myself =)
Here's a few links about it..

Pix




Just another couple random pics I took over the summer, these where taken in Point Judith RI. Enjoy =)

SAIC Guest Speaker

Well I got my portfolio reviewed by Greyson Hong from SAIC. Over all he said it was
"Strong and the talent was definitely there," but I should focus more on where I'm trying to go with my art; what the emphasis of it is? Hmm, I guess to me I know what it means personaly but i'm not stressing it enough in my work for others to understand.. So looks like I have a busy schedule ahead of me; need to develop my voice on it even more for others to apprehend the man behind the art.. El Artista..

Painting is fun!!


Today I had a fun time in my Painting I class. I was never much of a painter until I started doing so in Color theory with Professor Leonard. I mainly focus on dry media like graphite, charcoal, pen and ink etc, but I'm really getting into painting, it's really fun!!! Here's one example of an achromatic study from Color Theory, something from my imagination, I love illustration.. Haven't gotten a chance to finish it though. = {
