Initial pencil sketch. To make the angles less harsh for the perspective I nailed a string to my wall and have been using that as a crude straightedge. It seems to be working alright so far, except that everytime I need to put something else into perspective I need to renail the picture to the…

My new larger project idea came to me in that hazy area of waking where the state of the mind isn’t asleep, nor awake, and the description of lucid dreaming still doesn’t feel like the right word. The initial idea is for a person to be on the street level at night while up above…

Took a sick day and spent it at my desk painting. I think that this is well enough to turn in for painting tomorrow, although I still feel that it is missing the finishing touches. Like perhaps some feathers and a background, but then again, I never know when to stop. I think it is…

Continuation. I saw the usage of a thin white line recently and I thought I would give it a try. It seems to have added a much more illustrative look to the piece, so I am not too sure how I like it or not.

A painting of Jessye drinking wine from the bottle in our Parisian hotel. Hopefully I will be finished by this Thursday for class. I am wanting to do something with the background but I am not too sure what. Perhaps some patterning and playing with painting and then wiping to build up layers of detail.

These past few mornings have been gorgeous as I watch the sun rise from my window. Of course everytime I see the beautiful colors that are made, like the deep red on the horizon that gently transitions into a firey orange and then a fleeting green, that can almost be easily ignored, before reaching the…

Paris on my 24th birthday. We got a gateaux des rois for my birthday cake and I got to wear the crown. My surprise on the inside of the cake was a little green porcelaine cat with brown spots. We followed this up with some apple cidre. Nothing too extravagant, but a lot of fun.…
