Paintings, Comics and Illustration

I'm currently finishing a painting for composition. I now remember why I stopped buying cheap illustration board in the first place. The good thing is that the board is miraculously holding up and warping only a little bit. Nothing a good matting will fix :]

I also finally got around and updated my comic series with my good friend Martin. It's over at ZombieAlpacas (we need a new name) so please check it out! This week's comic touches on the topic of how to draw, giving it a rather blunt answer. I can't help it really, I'm actually quite tired of people, especially fellow art majors, sulking that they can't draw/paint anything and proceed to beat themselves up. All it needs is some practice, patience and time.


Speaking of time, I have managed to pick my works to submit for CSUN's Illustration Exhibition this year. I was kinda afraid to submit something last year so I'm hoping to get a spot this year c:

First one up is La Leyenda de La Llorona, an acrylic piece for composition class.

She Stole My Heart Container, an oil piece from my first illustration class last semester

....and I'm deciding whether to enter this or not. It's a triptych done in acrylic also from last semester's illustration class.I'll do my best!

Fun with Art 200

So this semester I'm taking my final rudimentary art course because I was a lazy butt and never signed up for the course during my first two years of college. So for two hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays I park my butt in a dark, air conditioned room fiddling around with Photoshop and Illustrator. My favorite assignment so far? Surrealism

(σ^▽^)σ I tried not to laugh while doing this. Needs some fixing though

Oh dear...

.....It's been almost a year since my last blog post. I've been extremely busy with stuff to the point where I didn't update. But now I'm re-vamping this blog so I can house concept art and the references I used for them. Also, I'm using this place as kind of a thinking space for my string of webcomics.

For now, have a nice picture of my uncle's chickens.
