Lady Gaga

so I like Lady Gaga's new CD, she's so weird! Here is what I thought of when I listened to the Paper Gangsta song.

Some more arts, this first one is a conquistador girl (conquistadora?) that I drew for my friend jay...the original version is much more well endowed, and the second more modest. Which is better? haha if you have opinions comment, this is a social experiment ]:<

And here is a picture of me I did recently...I do look kind of old, but I like it anyway.

Something old, something new

I've been so busy lately! I started an internship last month so having to rush move to boston and work a 9-5 job has impacted my art making time! But here are a few things : ) enjoy

Here's a drawing I did back at the end of senior year for our senior show. Its of the sleepiest members of our graduating class, from the left, Emily, Lindsey O, Jiyoung, Jin, Mike R, Juan, Gigi and Lindsey L.

And here is my latest piece I did for drawergeeks, this on was a Frankenstein theme. sadly I didn't have time to color it, but I think it's cute none the less

And here is an illustration of the famous 20s star Josephine Baker. She was very sassy and you should look her up. This is/was for a calendar of badass women that I've been working on with my friends Dawn and Ben.

Drawer Geeks

I am now a member of DrawerGeeks www.drawergeeks.com and here are my last two entries : ) the themes were the incredibles and the punisher... as for an explanation as to why he's wearing a sailor scout outfit...whenever i hear anything about punishing I think of sailor moon's famous line she would always say when attacking baddies "In the name of the moon I will punish you" and that's how that happened.

some new arts

Some recent drawings, the first is lady godiva, if you aren't familiar with the legend here is a link to the wikipedia article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Godiva somehow I imagine she probably wouldn't be quite so carefree but I had fun drawing her like this haha. The second is a drawing of one of my ollldd fantasy type characters from back in the day when I wrote lots of silly fantasy stories.

I need a new coffe shop

A rough comic of today's experiences...sadly i cannot capture just how extreme the flirt was in mere pictures...

Giraffes

I'm going to submit these designs to the website http://www.patchtogether.com/ the community votes and if your design is chosen they do a limited run of vinyl figurines of it. Please vote for my designs : ) happy giraffe and magical unicorn pegasus giraffe love you and want to live on your desk.

Some silly drawings from my entry to FJORG at siggraph 2009, we won best ending, here's a link to the movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y37LlPSjsIc

Low Tide

Just finished this, been working on and off on it for awhile, i think i'm finally happy with how it's looking : ) thanks everyone who gave me critiques!

A drawing I did today while sitting in the coffee shop at books a million, and another sick monster for character design biweekly, a sick sea serpent sulkily soaking in an ice bath haha (5 s's rock on!)

: ) a few doodles, my possible entry to the character design biweekly blog some kiddos from ringling started (monster with a malady) http://chadesbiweek.blogspot.com/ and a sketch of an elf girl that I was pleased with

Fishing

: ) a piece I've been working on this week, hope you enjoy!

And the moment you've been waiting for?

My thesis, toaster purse : )

Poster for my thesis, I think it effectively captures the feelings of drama and chaos that Toaster Purse leaves the viewer with.

Original poster does not belong to me, my character does. fear my awful photoshop skills haha

Page 3 from my comic i've been doing from my independent study, it's one of my favorites so far. I think my writing is kinda poor, but i really like how the background came out.

Mermaids

Been busy with lighting/texturing/compositing my thesis, I did this while waiting for my renders to finish. I used to draw a lot of mermaids when I was little, I lovvveeeddd sea creatures and wanted to be a marine biologist (a marine biologist that just drew fish all day). I also love turtles. hahaha

: ) xmas/channukuh present for my friend, it's his four fav superheroes as a rock band. That's Booster Gold on vocals, Aquaman on guitar, Martian Manhunter on bass, and blue beetle on drums. The guitars are based off of Fender guitars, and the drums are basically ludwig drums. Drawing instruments is really hard!!

: ) some more sketchbook stuff, the first one i doodled on a page corner and then threw some color on in painter, it reminds me of my best friend from elementry/middle school and me. Not that either of us looked like that, i just get that feeling. the other one i planned out for a bit, my friends say I should submit it to threadless, i might make it purday and try that! hahaha it's entitled "chemistry"

Some more sketchbook Pages

Some more recent drawings from my sketchbook : ) I plan to color the ice queen one at some point, I think i might try actual watercolors but i fear the pencil linework wont be able to stand up to that, we shall see! I had a lot of fun working in black and white ink for the other two.

Some Sketchbook Pages

Haven't posted art in awhile : ) heres a few decent things from my sketchbook
