College art: nudes/weird

Friday, January 9th, 2009

Unfortunately, this is the only size I have of this for now. It’s an odd painting for an assigment in college. I think I took the advice of Nick Jacques classmate then, painter/professor now and that is why it’s so weird. Hi Nick.

PS. I need to find the photographer and give them credit.

High School art: tara

Friday, January 9th, 2009

High School art: worker

Friday, January 9th, 2009

A pastel piece I created in high school. I did a lot of copy from photo art, it helped me then. Now I understand that it isn’t as helpful for the long run, in terms of learning to draw what I see.
