Lunch Break

This was an assignment to illustrate the theme of "work." What better way to show this than a hard working waitress finally taking her lunch break, obviously tired from her shift.

Outside of Old Smith Brothers Market, PG

This was an assignment to paint a cityscape with a figure in it. I took my little sister to Main Street in Pleasant Grove where its charming old-fashioned feel was exactly what I was looking for.

Profile Head Painting

My latest head-painting for Seegmiller's class! I love profiles!

One of my latest head paintings from Don Seegmiller's head painting class. (approx. 2 hrs)

This is one of the head paintings I did in class last fall. My teacher, Don Seegmiller, said it was one of my best ones so far. I will be taking another class from him this fall, so hopefully I can improve even more!

For all you Twilight, Eclipse, New Moon and Breaking Dawn fanatics, this is a painting I did for my Special Problems: Illustration class. It is a narrative of a scene in Eclipse when the vampires and werewolves are at war! I was going for a 'Howard Pyle' look with a limited color pallet and select locations of brighter color to create a stronger mood.

Extended/Exact Drawing

This is an attempt to duplicate a training method by William Whitaker, where one has a picture of a drawing, and you have to carefully copy it to its exactness! Depending on your patience it can take months! I'm obviously still working on it.. posting my progress as I go.
