Opacity: 20%

Hey everyone! So this spring semester, I'm taking a lot of cool classes, but one of my favorite classes I'm excited about is a digital painting class I'm not even enrolled in. lol. I plan on sitting in for the semester and I want to try to follow along with the assignments as much as I can. Our first assignment was to create and light a still life with at least three objects and then paint it. 

I had a lot of fun painting this, I already learned so much just from this first assignment and I can't wait to see what the rest of the semester holds. :) 

Merry Christmas!

Here is a gift I made for my dear cousin Katiì. It was inspired by Brittney Lee. This was my first attempt at creating something out of paper cut-outs, but I think I did okay considering all I had was foam paper and bulky scissors to work with. lol. 

I put it in a shadow box before I gave it to her, but I didn't take of picture of that. lol.  

Ty Carter!

Hey guys! So there's this awesome artist Ty Carter who I think you should check out. I had the honor of meeting him at this years CTN and his stuff is definitely worth checking out :)  He's having a holiday art giveaway! Here's the link :)  http://www.tycarter.com/

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

My scans are horrible and washed out, so I might rescan them or something later. But anyways, here are a few pages from my sketchbook I kept this past summer. The good. The bad. The ugly. 

                                   

So, last Saturday I got to participate in a pretty awesome event. I was a guest artist for TOMS "Style Your Sole" event in Berkley. It was such an honor to be chosen and a great experience. What would happen is, people would walk in the store, buy a pair of TOMS and if they chose to, bring them out to one of us set up outside of the store and have us paint a design of their choosing on their new shoes for free! I have to say, I dunno if I would be that trusting to have a stranger paint on my brand, spankin' new TOMS, but I'm glad others were. lol. It was so much fun and I look forward to working more of these events. :)
