Some Life Paintings

That will never be finished. So sad.

Top is oils, bottom acrylic.

Really wish I could scan these, but literally ever time I try, there's someone hogging the scan computer... one day, one day...

A Glimpse



A glimpse at probably one of the DUMBEST paintings I've ever done.
I do really like this loose color business I accidently did though.

If you don't know, Its Jack from LOST and I running away from SmokeyJohn
John Locke is in the painting too, he just needs some serious hand corrective surgery before I put him on the internet.

Stupid painting.... at least it makes me laugh, who knows maybe you'll laugh too.

A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

A silly old piece from last semester.

"A Wolf found great difficulty in getting at the sheep owing to the vigilance of the shepherd and his dogs."



"But one day it found the skin of a sheep that had been flayed and thrown aside, so it put it on over its own pelt and strolled down among the sheep. The Lamb that belonged to the sheep, whose skin the Wolf was wearing, began to follow the Wolf in the Sheep's clothing."



"So, leading the Lamb a little apart, he soon made a meal off her, and for some time he succeeded in deceiving the sheep, and enjoying hearty meals."

Double Postin'



A project to accompany this poem:

On the pad of my thumb
are whorls. whirls, wheels
in a unique design:
mine alone.
What a treasure to own!My own flesh, my own feelings.
No other, how ever grand or base,
can ever contain the same.
My signature,
thumbing the pages of my time.
My universe key,
my singularity.
Impress, implant,I am my self
of all my atom parts I am the sum.
And out of my blood and my brain
I make my own sun and rain.
Imprint my mark upon the world
what ever I shall become.
- Eve Merriam

Beatles and Bison

Here are some recent projects I've finished!
I apologize for not updating with anything substantial in awhile.

These are projects for school, excluding Bison piece.





The lovely Beatles, Rendered in gouache. Our "Premier or Grand Opening" project.
I decided to depict the Beatles arrival in the states for the first time. :)






A few friends of mine and I were coming up with the various scenarios that went on in each others heads. Some of them were quite hilarious and were deemed worthy of an illustration. I will defiantly be doing more of these when I have the time. (This one will eventually be a hyper rendered oil painting as well.)
This is the mind of Alex Krokus (His blog can be viewed here:http://akrokus.blogspot.com/
In his mind, he is wild bison running merrily with giraffes as Old Glory flaps in the wind behind him.






Another piece for school. We had to design a beverage ad that advocated halloween parties and such.
I decided to base mine on the Dia de los Muertos celebration.
I started off with acrylic, and switched over to gouache. Oh dear, I need to escape from gouache.

Artschool Round II

We had to create a blog in photoshop today.
I haven't updated since last semester, so I'll take this opportunity to update now.


"Well, it's the future!"
A project for our general illustration class.
Our assignment was to illustrate a futuristic advance that hasn't be created yet. I came up with Music generated energy. I used a picture from my year book for the reference.
