I’m home! Wasn’t feeling motivated to work on anything normal so I switched things up and did a lasso painting—no brushwork here.

I sure hope you saw this coming. Set 3/3. I abstracted the violence too much, or so I’m told (or I should have made the shift obvious by inverting my colour scheme or something). Not sure how to feel ‘bout that.

I like these two. They work better together than any of the others do, I think (especially the next set). It helps that that lower one is quite probably the strongest in the entire series.

Three of three—after Blinding, one of my favourite songs on the album. This one was rushed, but it’s still my favourite of the set.

Homework! A product illustration/essence-of-product-for-advertisement pair—not bad for two days, though it could use some more reflective light. Gettin’ real tired of taking three weeks to plan an image and one to actually make it. Not that process isn’t important; it’s just hurting me to rush the final product into being.

All done, I think! Did you know that having both Opacity and Flow set to Pen Pressure in your brush settings is a good idea? I certainly do now. Ooh, and on the off chance anyone is interested in that sexy sexy pattern which appears perspective-warped onto the floor, I prettied it up (admittedly into something super high contrast) and you can see a tiling version at the bottom of this post. _{Let’s call this image an ~artistic interpretation~ of what space looks like—it will make me feel better.}

Some drawings I did this winter prior to painting the striped fellow—I did a bunch of other designs, but these were the nicest, so I prettied them up some. In case it wasn’t obvious before, I really like drawing jovial animals with masks.

Second-semester post! The Beauty and the (very Howl’s Moving Castle-inspired) Beast, the Boy Who Cried Wolf, and the myth of changelings, in this case false infants made of twigs left in place of their human counterparts by fey kidnappers. My favourite three images from my foundation photography final centered around common narratives/myths/fairytales—these are gelatin silver prints from 35mm film;  two of them have ink and one of them is print-process witchcraft. Pardon my scanner’s dust.

A poster for a design class, in an experimental style. Random blank space in the composition is for the logos/text/etc which I wasn’t to add myself. The colours… oh dear, the colours.

This was drawing homework, a (very) open assignment. I don’t think I did it right, somehow, but I got a nice exchange of notes with Painted-Bees out of it as well as this painting. Now it’s time for two and a half hours of sleep and then class. But hey! I’m getting better at this!
