Pilots

Here are some character designs for a new project I'm working on.

Life Drawing

I took life drawing again this semester. These two are my favorite. To view previous life drawings go here!

These colors are an Ode to Thomas Kinkade.

Quickies

Roommate Life Drawing

There's very little privacy in our apartment

Kwakiutl spirits

watercolor on paper

Based on Kwakiutl native americans, originating along the North Pacific. Their mythologies and ability to convey them through clothing and dance really fascinated me. I mean look at that octopus on his head.

Baltimore Zombie Map

For concepts we were assigned to make a map. Naturally I chose a zombie apocalypse in Baltimore. I focused on key safe houses throughout the city to hide at rather than drawing each building.

Where's Waldo?



Graphite and watercolor on paper

Watercolors are tough.

This was a warm up to re-familliarize myself with watercolor for a project I'm working on. A six panel series to illustrate a famous japanese myth, Momotaro (Peach Boy). As much as I enjoy the watercolor process, I'm very hesitant with it and have very little idea on how to do backgrounds without spending an insane amount of time on them. I hope throughout this I'll gain more confidence and knowledge in using it.

Crumbs: The Story of a Homeless Guy

For Visual Journalism we were assigned to make a short sequential piece about Baltimore, namely Fells Point. This was pretty fun since I just kind of went with it and planned very little. The negative effect though is I lose track of how well it conveys, which this falls victim to. If you can't tell its a baguette.
