The Life Drawing Landfill

Well, I'm in class with nothing better to do. So I suppose I could upload some life drawings I've done in class recently.

Gouache

I've got a lot more crap coming. I'm nearing the completion of the year. All I have left is a Psychology final and a photo book to bind for Photography. So I guess I'll never have an official day where a giant burden is off of my shoulders...My assignments will just trickle out of my life. Regardless, my workload will be entirely depleted come Monday night. Then and only then I can begin the stupidly vast array of summer projects I've set up for myself.

There's a whale in the moon when it's clear

For Color class, we had to to illustrate a song lyric in a color triad. So I picked Fish & Bird by Tom Waits (Off of the album, Alice). I mean, technically...the song pertains to a whale and a bird, but I took some liberties. Once again, I'm pretty new to gouache, so I'm happy with how it came out.

He said, 'You cannot live in the ocean' and she said to him, 'You never can live in the sky.'

KICK IT!

Well, it just so HAPPENS that last night, I uploaded a fistful of images of some paintings I've done in the past month. And I suppose it'd be a good idea to put them up here...seeing as this is the whole ART BLOG thing and whatnot.

What follows is a three piece series where I used each of the complimentary color sets. It was one of my first ventures in gouache and blahblahblahshootme.



Violet and yellow.


Blue and orange.


Red and green.


Finally, some work I've done that didn't involve animals...But it still has food. I need to break this awful, awful theme of mine.
