For Funsies

I got a Wacom tablet for my birthday and I was having some fun with it yesterday:

 

I'm pretty much in love with this new tablet; it's unbelievably easy to use.  And I'm super excited to have it in time for senior year - which starts in a week.  Just one more year at MICA and then I'm off into the world.

MiniThesis

For my Concepts II final, we spent five weeks working on a MiniThesis of our choosing.  I chose to draw a four-part series illustrating different scenes for this one bearded girl.  I think she's adorable.

Little Lion Man

Another quick update - I was having fun coloring old sketches in photoshop again.  This sketch was for an etching that I did last semester.  The etching didn't turn out so well, but I still like the image.

(note: blogspot killed the color on this)

Murals!

Here's another piece for Concepts that I just finished.  Our assignment was to design a mural for a building of our choice.  I chose the H. Furlong Baldwin Library which is part of the Maryland Historical Society and located in Mt. Vernon.

The proposed mural:

 What it might look like on the building:

 

Side note: I have begun t-shirt production on my faux-losophy shirts!!  But!... I overestimated my skills at screen printing and ended up ruining four shirts because I tried to screen print in my apartment in a makeshift kind of way.  So, from now on I'm going to not be lazy and actually make my way down to the Dolphin Bulilding so I can use the screen printing classroom in there.  Hopefully, I'll have better luck that way and not waste so many t-shirts.

Anyway, Thanksgiving is almost upon us and I can't wait to go home!!  I'm very ready to spend a little time away from Baltimore and the stress of college life.  Florida and delicious holiday food, here I come...!
