Getting Better!

One of the Homework assignments I did for class. I'm getting better in painting with gouache! :)
Let's hope I didn't jinx it!

Landscapes

It's been so long! Above are a few gouache studies from my Saturday class taught by Andrew Hem- he's amazing! The class is a challenge and I have a long way to go.

Avatar

So...It's been awhile. 

One of my very first projects at Otis was to create an avatar and level it up throughout the semester. The idea was based on dragon fruit and the leaves were to resemble seaweed.

Off to School

 I start Otis College of Art and Design today! Let's see how my day goes~

Ballerina

I tried painting a style I thought could go well with a children's book- just for fun.

Virtual Plein Air

I found this super fun to practice and experiment with! I found painting techniques I did that I liked. I still have trouble with color (and perspective) so it's a good thing I'm practicing with the basics too. Here's the link to the place I "visited". :)

Kids on the Train

Fontana

Sketches I did during my train ride to Fontana and my hike there. These were fun to draw and really relaxing. More to come!

Faun

Here's a preview of what I've been working on! The first day of summer will be here on Saturday, so I thought I would paint a theme for spring.

Edit: Here's the full version. Originally I was going to post a gif but I felt seeing the full painting would be best.

Sketch

A bit late, but I sketched a friend on Monday. I recently finished my red moleskine sketchbook - a dear friend of mine gave me- and drew in a new one. I'm going to finish it next month! 

Cockatiel

Nikki! She's an awesome Cockatiel I met at a friend's house. I love how these parrots have pink reddish cheeks as if they're blushing.  

Journey

I painted and crafted a small origami character from Journey, an indie game. My sister showed me The Art of Journey and the environments and characters are beautifully made.

The origami instructions are here.
