1920 Tequila

Here is a new illustration. We had to pick a product and advertise it. I chose 1920 Tequilla. Enjoy.



Yee Haww!

Livejournal

Ugh, I went back to having a livejournal again for personal rants so if you have a livejournal and want to know more about my personal life aside from the art posts add my journal:

Thanks and stay tuned for another art update soon!

Thesis #5

Here it is. My fifth thesis piece. It is about sexual addiction. This one was so hard to come up with but everyone said I did an awesome job. This one may be one of my favorites!



The next one is going to be about food. I have NO idea what the hell I am doing for it.

Pencil

I am really bored and frustrated right now. I have promo stuff to do and I have been neglecting it for some reason. I can't decide what to do with the business cards, stationary, letterhead, postcards etc. I want to make buttons too eventually.

Bandit won't get off my lap for anything. He is like a hot water bottle.

My whole night has been pretty sad. Geographies of Hope & Despair homework or shall I say bitchwork...A Shot at Love with Tila Taquilla...3 hours of the History channel. I think I may go crazy now. My whole life these days consists of bright flat screens.

1 more week until turkey day. I am counting...

I might go to bed. I am just too cranky to deal with anything more tonight.

Thesis #4

4th thesis piece. About gambling addictions. Did a casion/hot rod/tattoo inspired theme. The coloring was hard to pick for this.

Ebay and its wonders...

So I was scrounging around ebay tonight looking for refrence photographs of women from the 1920s. I found this AMAZING 95 year old scrap book up for bid there which had old clippings from articles and magazines of silent film actresses. Of course I had to bid on it! So don't be surprised if you see me walking around with a 95 yr old scrap book for inspiration.

Anyhow, I emailed my teacher about this Baseman issue. I am not sure if I am going to be able to take it very far considering the man's status. I just think the important lesson learned here is this:

1. Myspace is dangerous. Be aware that posting artwork means people can steal and idea.
2. Apparently well experienced illustrators aren't creative enough to come up with their own concepts or ideas and have to stoop so low to rip of an art students project.
3. Stealing concepts is a strange form of flattery.
4. I should email him and thank him for taking an interest in my work and doing a series based off of it...

Anyhow take a peek at a new link I put up in the links section. It is me pretty much summed up in a blog of artwork.
