Portraits

I love doing portraits, mostly just drawing them, but its nice to paint one once in awhile. So for Illustration Composition class we had to do two portrait paintings. One that is glazed and the last one is Alla Prima all of them in acrylic paints.

Youtube Channel Young & Broke

I did a small job for my cousin, Meg, and her friend, Deanna, youtube channel. Their channel is called Young & Broke. Its about two collage students trying to raise money and spend in unique way. There are some successful weeks or down right failed ones. It is a funny youtube channel to watch.

Here is the process:

I got an email this morning about the decision they picked. I didn't have any problems until we tried to upload it to youtube. And Oh my gosh that is a pain in the but. It makes no sense at all! You are required to have a size but thats not the size of the youtube header no they want you to crop it to a smaller size but it has to be big as the required size because of the Tv screen option, which you can not change. But we final got it to work:

Go watch their videos!

A Long midterm week...

Its been a long midterm week and weekend before just finishing final projects. Then presenting all of projects on Wednesday and Thursday. Final get to have a break, except for my 4-6 page paper on Plato.

I am proud of my Illustration digital the most. Even though i am not a big fan of the movie Tangled I like how the design came out. So here is the run down on the project details

First we need picked a art theme from the "magical" red bucket. Its either a good topic you pick out or a bad one. So I got 1960s Psychedelic movement. Here are some example works I found that inspired me to do the piece.

 Coner

 Robert Wilson

 Peter Max

Wes Wilson

Then after doing research about the movement we have to pick a culture and a color scheme.  I picked tangled because the movement is influenced by Art Nouveau movement because of the circular linear shapes,the colors fit perfectly for it, and there is repeated patterns in the movie. 

After many sketchs, I did 2 finals in Adobe Illustrator:

Then I picked the last one then fixed it up a bit to a finished product.

Hope you enjoyed it leave a comment. Now time to go back drinking Starbucks coffee and play Kingdom Hearts 3DS.
