The Farm in the City

Some of my drawings from the Royal Winter Fair.

long time no post..

Hello!
These are character designs from our 2nd assignment..the goal: to make them contrast one another...(can you spot all the contrasting features?)
These two will soon appear in an animation project involving walk and run cycles.
..comments, critiques???

Sketchity Sketch

Some drawrings, caricatures, and cafe sketches from these first two lovely months of school. Enjoy.

Hey Kids!

For part of this summer I was kept very busy as a day camp counselor, running the camp's art program. Though it was tiring, (as almost all work with children is), I loved teaching them new things, and it was always great seeing their results. One of my favorite things when I used to go to camp was the art classes, so when some kids said the same things about camp this year, well that was very nice to hear :)

Here are some of the kids I taught, caricatured. They're just head shots, and all smiling - whether it be in an innocent or mischievous way was determined by the time I got to spend with them in art class.

Simply Serene

One thing I like most about summer is the time spent at the cottage. Just got back from a long weekend at a friend's cottage and here's a quick watercolour/ink sketch I did of my surroundings.

Hooters

..and by hooters I mean owls..what else!




I wanted to test out some brushes on Photoshop, because I havnt been one to use many when working on one piece, so these were more experimental for me as opposed to a final piece. Don't remember how I came to choose owls as the subject matter, but once I started I really liked how unique (and in some cases complex) their feathers are. I drew a few, but these are my two favorties..and as for the background, yes it's a lame flower brush but I liked the effect it gave, contrasting the realistic owls with the retro design.

People

Sometimes I go people watching..it's not as creepy as it sounds.
