Another earlier project - a giant replica cardboard polaroid camera. I believe the scale was 1:3 (click for bigger images)

figure drawings

These are some figure studies from earlier in the term; unfinished, but focusing on light/dark and shadow.

Exciting things... in other countries

Good news! My painting, Outlander, is featured in the newest and 10th edition of Her Royal Majesty, a quarterly literary/art magazine run by my friend Harriet Lye, who is based out of Paris. The launch was accompanied by a 4 day exhibition at Galerie Iconoclastes in Paris, with an opening champagne reception on March 24th.


I wish I could've been there for the gallery opening... but maybe I'll join Harriet in Paris so I can be there for the next one. Oh, wanderlust! The magazine will be available to download online in mid-april. If you purchase a physical copy, it includes an original piece of art. Check it out!

Pugs R Us

Just for fun.

Here's a recent mini-doc that I made as a homework assignment. My grandmother recently passed away and I've been thinking not just about loss, but also about the constant tension we all experience in our lives between our past and present, and how we deal with that space left behind by someone. Surreal stuff!

Also, how horrible am I at updating this blog? Sigh... life without a scanner. In any case, this is the beginning of a new era (of regular updates). Just you wait.

Screenprinting

Two outtakes from my first screenprinting class (both are 12x14", click to enlarge). Funnest activity ever! I'm having some serious angst about whether I should be majoring in painting/drawing or printmaking, and I have to pick in the next couple days. Serious thinking time this weekend.
