Culver City

Here's another gouache sketch. The colors didn't scan in very well and it's not the best painting I've done, but I like pushing the colors a little and I want to experiment with it some more.

Lauren M

Here's a painting of my hilarious friend Lauren. She's rad.
She found that white jacket at a thrift store, she said. I believe it, she's one of my favorite flea market companions ever (please refer to me buying crazy denim jackets).

I had to start over and over again to try to get that Lauren essence, and in my opinion I still haven't succeeded, but it's better than my first few sketches. One day, I shall make a better one!

Breakfast & Breakfast Only, Three Times A Day

I haven't had the time to post anything in a long time, because of crazy projects piling up. Some exciting things are happening, and sooner or later I shall post them as well.

Speaking of exciting, I should state that breakfast food always gets me excited. There are so many things you can call "breakfast", and I'm so into it.
This little sketch isn't new, but I had to post something. I think I painted this because I really wanted bacon and eggs, but didn't have bacon. Can't quite recall. Part of me wants to make a pattern out of this, and print it as wrapping paper, postcard, a t-shirt or something.
Enjoy!

Tunamunaluna

I felt like playing with style and ended up drawing myself because I still need to figure out which friends of mine don't mind being caricatured.

El Matador

More from my landscape class, & more to come...

Back To Basics

I decided to sit in on the amazing Andrew Hem's landscape painting class. It's giving me a good reason to bust out the good old gouache kits, which is very exciting.
This one is the limited yellow/blue/black/white palette.

Dood...

...le. 1-2mins.

Bear Number Two

I hope everyone is having a grand 2011 so far!
Here's something I did upon the request of a friend. Remember the bear with the tricycle from last year? Well, she did. "A bear with a gun", she said.
I must advertise though, that I think bikes are much cooler than guns. Just saying.

Oldies

Going through some old folders to organize my hard drives, I came across this self portrait/sketch I did in school (sometime during 2006/7). I remember this was from a photo assignment from a different class, and I also remember color picking, haha. Can't believe it's been 4 years now! Time flies. Le sigh.

"Ho Ho Ho.. and such"

Happy Holidays from California!
