Its been a while sense my last post I've been running all over since I've graduated. I've been playing around with friends and i went to visit family its been a lot of fun but I've not been on my computer much. I've been sketching some and painting a little. here is a new poster I have been working on. its been fun its not as refined as some of my posters but it was fun to do. I have been working on a new web site a lot lately too its almost done. hopefully I'll have the new website up and running sometime before next month Ive had my super-computer-friend-Larry helping me by writing all the code for the new site based on my design, thanks Larry. Ill have a new post when i finally get my new web site up so everyone can go over and see it.
but its not ready yet so you'll just see my old site if you go look now. the old site wasn't too bad but it was thrown together very quick so i would have something to show when i went to new York last summer. so now that ive had more time i hope the new site will look more professional

Hey Check out the illustrators partnership link on my page here (its under the cool illustrators links) and send a letter to the senators about the orphan act its a messed up bill that will take the copy right protection away from artists and let anyone infringe on the copy right without any real penalty. the link to the letter is on the main page and i think it is a good idea for artist to let the government know its a bad idea.

also you can check out Marcelo Vignali's blog (its under the same illustrators links as the partnership) there is a massive debate going on over there about the orphan act and its really interesting, check it out

more BFA stuff

here are some images from my senior show. a few CD designs and a poster. Static-X was one of my favorite posters to work on. It was a lot looser than the other posters and it was a lot of fun to paint so fast and not so refined as the other posters in my show.

rocket ship

my BFA show is coming up! it opens this coming Thursday. and the exhibit reception is Friday the 28th. its exiting! even though i'm stressed and pressed for time i still had some time to sketch some and i've had a lot of inspiration since i went to LA and visited all the amazing artists there in LA and at Sony and dream works. so here is a rocket ship because the sky is the limit.

Harp player

I made it in to the Society of Illustrators Student show this year with this poster I am real exited. Its funny because its not one of my favorite posters, i it made for my bfa show and some of the other posters I liked alot better like the Hendrix poster and the weev poster i also liked the voodoo poster better but thats how it gos some people like some images and not others its cool how everyone has there own unique opinion.

work in progress, im taking dan burrs advanced Illustration class again this semester and were doing red ridding hood again, this time im trying to do it a little different

another poster for the BFA this one is made up there is no such band as the Weev. (that I know of)

this is part of my BFA project I love music so I'm making posters and CD covers of bands I like, and some I made up.

jumper

take a shot

hey look the plant is eating the gardener.. or the octopus is, whatever it is..
I had a blast making this picture.

like mike

this is a political assignment we were to make an image about the presidential election
sense I didn't like any of the candidates i went for a faceless candidate, you can probably guess who it is.

i was originaly going to put text on to this image but i havent goten around to it yet but it was going to say " when the dust setteled the wolf was dead."

i went all the way back to the original sketch and took out the figure completely i think it works better, but i think ill work on it a little more and move the wolf back away from the cape.

red

the cropped image was my original idea. but i decided to put in the full figure, i cant decide which works better.... my roommate wanted it to be cropped right next to her face on the edge, but i refused. dose it drive anyone else crazy when someone who has no visual eye or artistic background come to you and tell you that you need to do something that would look like crap? thats what he did, he had all these ideas "to really improve the picture" in his own words. the cropping wasn't the only suggestion but it was the least idiotic, and to top it all off i didn't even ask for the opinion or show him the image he just came up while i was working and started talking... drives me crazy.

Animal
this is the rough sketch for the animal assignment i was thinking grays with a dash of red... well see how it turns out.

I say tomato

rabbit??

society of illustrators student show! i was so exited!
this peace i submitted to the society of illustrators student show this may, i got a nice prize and published in the annual, needless to say i was happy.

voodoo

this semester is my first semester for BFA, and my BFA project is based off of this image. its called voodoo for my project im making concert/rock posters, with Accompanying cd cases, should be fun.

pumpkin assignment

i thought that pumpkin would be what a farmer would call his wife.... and she would call him egg head.
