Sort of my personal "to do" list as an illustrator. I had written it down somewhere, or at least intended to, but have since lost it. So something I would do. I figure it'll stay here until I update my journal, a task I usually abhor. I always have to remind myself.

Dear Self,
for a successful drawing be conscientious of the folloing:

-Line Value
-Depth
-General Tone of the image/Values
-MORE BLACK! Don't be scared to push an image as far as it'll go.
-If you do take it too far, and it can't be salvaged, don't worry. Do better next time. Make everything a lesson.
-Ask yourself why you are drawing this image.
-Do more figure drawing
-Draw from life, you lazy fool!
-Perspective--it makes sense for a reason
-Pick a light source, and stick with it
-Atmosphere
-And for God's sake, LOOSEN UP!

Love,
Self

I'm addicted to it!

Ok, as always I'm going to say "I'm going to post more this year!" I totally failed at posting anything in 2008. Eh, it was a crappy year anyway!

Since my last post I have successfully graduated from the University of California Santa Cruz with a double major in studio art and the history of art and visual culture.  Now to find a "real" job. Anyone have any ideas?

Take it easy,

So yeah. I guess I'm doing annual updates. I suck at this posting game.

meh.

hey look over there! a girl with an octopus on her head!

wow...have i really not been on this site for almost two years? hmmm....*rubs chin* guess so. well don't be expecting much of me around. as most of my art is not CG as of late, i'm too lazy to photograph it decently and i'm hardly ever on the computer anymore. what? life outside the internet? *gasp* who knew? anyhoo, i might pop in every once in a while, if i ever get my laptop fixed i might post more stuff. who knows.

late
