Summer 2012

Hello! Summer flew by wicked fast and has been very eventful. I had the wonderful opportunity to be a creative intern at David and Goliath, inc. I miss everybody there already. Especially a great friend and talented artist, Erica, here are a few sketches I did of her while I was in Clearwater.

 Above is my friend Julianna back from my hometown Naples, FL, she too is an art student. She visited during my last week there, I miss my little beach apartment, it really grew on me.

End of the year Lithography Prints

Time has been flying by wicked fast, I haven't had the chance to post any end of the school work. Below are three lithography prints. I have grown attach to my limestone and will sincerely miss it.

This one is a combination of two printmaking techniques, the pink bunny was applied first as a monotype. Afterwards, an image of grass and flowers was printed from the limestone.

These two prints explore my two separate interest in art. I throughly enjoy drawing people and studying  form, but I also have a passion for bright, colorful cute things.

Toothfairies

The sweet toothfairy vs the evil toothfairy.

Mini Plushies

Sew these little guys for a current project I'm working on in my artists books class. The assignment is to have three object/compartments and a book in a clamshell book case. My previous project I ventured patterns, so for this assignment I will do a children's book. The possibilities are endless and can be overwhelming, but I'm very excited about the project. The vegetables and bunny are made out of felt created from 100% recycled plastic water bottles. 

Arabshad

A portrait I did for the memory project, her name is Arabshad. I think she has a very pretty face. I hope she smiles when she receives it over the summer. It will be showcased with other students at Ringling who participated in this wonderful project. I will definitely do it again next year.

Moleskin Sketchbook

Yay, finished my sketchbook, it was one of those 200 plus pages Moleskin plain notebooks. The pages were relatively thin, but I don't mind much. One of my favorite things to do is draw from life and portraits
