a disney sculpture...

this is a character from "The Aristocats", you know, the old guy that's like 100 years old. we get a chance to have a simple class to do tis sort of thing. kinda awesome. this is about 4 hours of work, so lots left to do. in case you didn't know, the scene we're studying from is one of Milt Kaul's. the drawing is totally appealing...so i have to try and grab that. kinda difficult, but it's on its way there. cheers friends.

honk if you want to kiss me!!!

hi friends. i did my first oil painting yesterday. i guess it's called plein air painting. took bout 1hr 30mn, something like that. twas freakin fun, the most fun i've had, art wise, in a long time. it's nothing AMAZING but i rather like it...has a good mood...





















this is something i did super fast. the photo i took on a road trip back from Missouri with my bro and sis. again, nothin CRAZY, just some fun...






















hands. i love hands. the first one is my grandpa's hand. it looks evil don't it. but it really aint. he's a farmer with one arm. the one he has left looks like this. the next one is my sister. she was feeding a cow, pulled it out of the mouth and had gross goo attached to it. i think i captured it pretty good. had to use my slick manual focus agility to get it in time...she didn't like the way the slime felt.

























anyways, cheers friends...xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxxx honk if you want to kiss me!!!

it's a devil...

for some reason i enjoy the idea of evil rising to power...in a drawing that is! the concept of something, a situation, a character so dark that it makes me feel a bit of discomfort. maybe i'm crazy, i don't know. but, this was something for an assignment we had to do involving textures. the evil thing's scales was roof shingles, the sky involved crazy waves from the ocean, and the rocks were cave textures mixed together. it was fun...so onto doing another one. hurray...cheers...

oh, if you want, come up with a story for this one too and let me know. i've got some ok ones brewing...

p.s. i know this picture doesn't show it exactly, but i love my family and friends. life is good for me at the moment and i really can't complain. i hope those of you who have that evil thing rising from the dark depths within, well i hope you can look to the bright side of life and get rid of that nasty thing. thank you God.
