Sharpies my Friends



HEY. Is it the weekend? Are you bored? Get some buddies together and draw each other. Find some kind of media restriction. Brandon Baba Bakus, Chase Taylor and I decided on Sharpies only. Let me know if you try, and send me the results!

Figures






I am still in love with observing figures. These paintings range from 2.5 - 8 hours, and are done in oil. As these pieces demonstrate, I am discovering that the subtleties of limited palettes tickle my fancy.

Let's Etch

I finally got to try out some printmaking while at the Academy. This was the most involved of all the prints--an etching using a copper plate. I had a few accidents along the way, but they ended up working quite well which makes me even more proud of the print.

This one goes out to you Sara Thompson!

Week 3



Portraits! One of my favorite things in life. Anderson Cooper and Betty White, in all of their mixed media glory.

On a more general note, The Illustration Academy was THE best thing I could have done with my summer. I would recommend it wholeheartedly for anyone who is serious about this whole make a living doing what you love business, and I am planning on returning to Kansas City at one point or another without a doubt. To those of you who were there, I miss you tremendously.
