I applied the charcoal drawing I learned in class to the computer. I just blackened the background, and used the erase tool to show the biggest highlights. Then used the pen tool to go over lines. Erase, pen. repeat.

Every Girl In the World

Counting sheep

Butter no fly

That one time in 4th grade my caterpillar did not hatch. In fact, it fell down to the bottom of the cup and never moved again. I got used to having school experiments die on me.

Still life

vine charcoal. we had to draw the tape and arrows my teacher put on the objects, if you're wondering what those are.

self

Real charcoal pencils/chalk for self portrait assignment. I may have over done the whole "devine intervention for the perfectionist" thing haha. I really don't look like that when I'm drawing.

Medusa

Love Greek mythology, especially Medusa. My third grade story assignment was my own version of her life. (I was unaware there she already had her own very detailed "history").

I used the wet oil paintbrush, then added the woodcut effect in painter, which is why there are black lines on this. Kinda cool.

Little Red

2010: Seriously

It's 10 AM on the first Saturday of December... the only one ready for carolers is my dog. And that's because he thinks y'all are bringing him treats.
