Sketchbook Project Tour 2012

I submitted my sketchbook to Art House Co op, I kinda miss it already, but very excited for the people in different cities across the states to see it. I developed a lot as an artist during the duration of this project. In the beginning I would draw people tiny with a pen. A mechanical pencil was used one evening when I forgot to bring a pen and the outcomes were very satisfying. Here is the website. project http://www.arthousecoop.com/users/torianne00. 

Self Portrait

Self portrait done in Illustrator from last year.

Corel Painter

Something I did for computer illustration last year, my first corel painting. This is not me, its my roommate, we all happen to be asian. I had a lot of fun exploring this program and look forward to using it more.

A little something

I had the pleasure of draw a good friend of mine during Portrait Night this week. Thank you Raquel!

I love vectors

I absolutely miss my computer Illustration class so much. The last assignment was to do a promotional piece. My concept behind this piece is to make vegetable look awesome and fun to eat. I feel this describes me rather accurately. Bright colors and lots of love and cuteness. Enjoy!

FEWS and Figure painting

A quick update from FEWS and figure painting class. I've been very lucky this week, the figure models are awesome. Below are shorter poses from fews...

and a preliminary drawing for the next figure painting. 

Portrait Night!!!

First portrait night of the semester! 

 Something a little extra, I had a lovely day catching up with a good friend, Danielle, awesome photographer, here is her blog http://danielleashphotography.blogspot.com/

Open Mic Night

Every wednesday night is open mic night at the local cafe downtown, Pastry Art. 

My two roommates

The lady who sat in front of my was kind enough to let me draw her in such close proximity. She had a very happy atmosphere about her.

Late Night Starbucks

One of my favorite things to do is going to cafes and sketch, even better yet, with awesome company.

Update: So i scanned it and just noticed i lost a lot of line quality, hence why I'm keeping the other photo i took from my phone up

Winter Break

Winter break is sadly over, but it has been quiet enjoyable and very relaxing. I had a lovely trip visiting my boyfriend in Maryland for the holidays. Here are some doodles from my trip. I'm rediscovering my love for graphite.

Baltimore!!

I also went to New York City with my boyfriend and visited the metropolitan museum. Cold weather is absolutely foreign to me. 

This was on my flight back to the sunshine state

and this was during my two hour wait for connecting flights. Very nice girl and her family too. I love meeting and talking to people while out and about. 

First sketch of the semester, a preliminary sketch for figure painting.
