gouache paintthe assignment was to transform something from geometric to organic
inkthe assignment was....idk. to create something or other. i just like the one on the right.
gouache paintwe had to show an action about to take place. the mouse is about to get it's head torn off in the trap
i just did it so i could make cool wall paper.
magazine clippingsi forget what the point was. besides we had to reverse gradients on top of each other. the background is one, the stuff is another going the opposite way.
that junk is from before. you and i have talked about drawing class though, and how i hate it. there's not much to show...it seems like we never finish anything really. we did a bunch of line drawings that look like unfinished junk. anyway these are the only three that feel complete really.
charcoalthe ONE day we got to draw outside. it was hard.
inkone of the 742821 billion boring still life drawings. it turned out alright though.
charcoala less boring still life. this is probably the only one i've liked so far. it's the most recent. i think i'm getting there.

I didn't know you were in the art game, man. Cool stuff.
I liked the magazine clippings one especially, for some reason.

I know it's for Michelle and Toya, but can I comment on it?
- The Bamboo one is really nice. The patterns on it is so simple and amazing. I like how the transition to simple blocks into the bamboo sticks look so flawless and smooth.
- The second one, the ink blots of whatever was pretty interesting. The shapes and the creativity you had on it really fascinated me.
- The mouse image was pretty cute, and simple. The pink background looks like real actual wallpaper, so I thought that was pretty cool.
- The last one, the skeleton charcoal was absolutely gorgeous. It was my favorite one. Never knew what an artist you were JC. Are you an Arts major?

Woah, woah, I've been stalkin' these here forums for quite some time. I didn't know you arteded!
The second and fourth ones are pretty trippy.
I'd really like to see the fifth one completed because it looks like it has so many intricate details. And kudos, I can never use charcoal without smudging it terribly.

I love the first one. The the rat that is about to get its head torn off. And the last one, I think I like it the most.
The circles in some of the pieces stick out to me a lot, do you like using circles?

^not really =/ i mean i've done stuff, but really not that much that i've been satisfied with. i'm going to do stuff this summer on my own. these are the only two that i really cared for at all.
this one is rough and isn't really finished or anything, but i liked where it was going.

my sketchbook is filled with flower junk and things that contain a lot of circles. stuff like this:
