Trying New Technique

Forget if I mentioned this, but all last week I had severe migraines and nausea which enabled me to do any good work (both art, resident assistant, and ideation club wise). So this week is playing catch-up. Managed to knock this out using a new technique. I'm going to work on it more if I can manage the time. Enjoy!

Fun doodle

Update! Been sick for the past week with horrible migraines. Yesterday was my first day since without the migraines, and to be sure waited today to make sure. Slight slight headache during class, but with honesty that was probably due to the 30 minutes of sleep I got. No worries, I'll go to bed now. Enjoy this quicky doodle I did a while back for my friend Eva who requested I draw her a creature (and gave me the wonderful challenge of adding onto the request while I was working on it). She also made the free academy gym bags into a stylish red nun's hat. :)

Spring 2013 Door tags

Finally finished putting all this together. As recap for some, I'm a resident assistant (RA) at one of the dorms at the Academy of Art University. Every semester we have to design new door tags for our residents, so the theme I chose this time is animated films. Last semester's was Pokemon: first generation. Warning: the Spring 2013 set may appear unnaturally vibrant which is not the case in the originals. Unsure of why.

Cuttlefish and Turkey

So in Ideation last Friday, the concept challenge was cuttlefish and turkey. Chose to do creature designs and... well, here's what I've got. Lots of fun, albeit probably the most unique one of the groups (not sure whether a good thing or not). The top two on the right (weirdo in the center and chicky on the farthest right) were after thoughts when the challenge ended and my mind was drifting.

Some Perspective

Finished my first week of assignments, and loving all my classes. For my advanced perspective class, we had to make three full illustrations based on the perspective we learned and include the theme "samurais". Here's what I made. Hopefully sometime this week I'll be able to flush these out further with the critiques I received from Joko Budiono (instructor and amazing artist). Enjoy!

Mermaids

Made these last semester, and was hoping to work on them further during the break but unfortunately didn't get too great an opportunity. I do plan to keep developing these designs and illustrations, though, so here's a sneak peak! The final picture was more of a joke to my teacher, but somehow the composition ended up working well so be expecting some more laser shooting mermaids in the future. :)
