Fall Semester Works

Winter break is coming to an end, and with spring semester starting in a few short days I figured it was about time to upload some photos of work that I did last semester. I am looking forward to getting my ass back into gear! Hope you enjoy : )

Recent Works...Figure Drawing

I am working on a self portrait for my Figure painting class. The image on the top is the underpainting in yellow ochre. The image on the bottom is a bit more finished but still a work in progress. I am hoping to recreate the phenomenon where when you see someone yawn you cannot help but yawn yourself.
















































I also just finished a pretty large drawing of my love Christopher noodling on his guitar. The drawing is on gessoed paper, in chalk pastel. I am pretty content with how it came out. There is a picture of the whole drawing as well as a detail of his face.                                    

One last drawing I did from life in the studio was also in pastel.

College, it happens slowly then all at once...

So I have not posted in too long. I have been super busy with school, and have had a hard time finding the time to post.

I have a lot to share with anyone who is interested.

The Pawtuckaway Takedown festival was so amazing. Thank You to everyone who helped organize it. It didn't even matter that it ended up raining. I only took a few photos because my phone died, I wish I could have taken more.

In school this semester I am focusing on honing my drawing skills. I have been taking figure drawing, as well as figure painting.

The last thing that I wanted to mention on here is 

What's Going On?

ART SCHOOL NERD

I haven't posted in a little bit but a lot has been going on. First of all I started school. I am so excited to be back to the art school nerd life. I will definitely be posting photos of the massive amount of art I will be making in the next 16 weeks.

In addition I am going to be hanging two pieces at my favorite bar in Dover Sonny's. I will most likely be hanging them on September 3rd.

There is also an upcoming event called the Pawtuckaway Takedown that and I will be participating in the art expo there. Check out the event on Facebook It is going to be epic.

The Seacoast Congress of Sound is an event that occurs every year to celebrate the music, art, food, and the seacoast. It takes place on a beautiful farm in North Berwick, ME. There are always local artisans, live music, Smuttynose Brewskies, and local food. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to share my work, and hang out here. I had an amazing time. Thank You to everyone who volunteers to make this event happen. 

Here are some photos from my day:
