Practicing Cartoons Self Portrait.

I have been working on drawing people so I decided to draw a self portrait on Photoshop and try using my little tablet (that doesn't work very well) to draw her. I would LOVE to have one of the wacom tablets. 

A bright ocean

This was done using Acrylic paint and was just a little project I wanted to do in my free time. I was influenced by Vincent Van Gogh when we were talking about his work in my Art History class. I used his style of light radiating off the light bulbs.

Drawing 1

Here are two of my assignments for my drawing 1 class

I just love poppies 

2D DESIGN CLASS

Here are the projects I have been working on in my 2d design class!

Working at the scera

This giant polar bear was for the play the Adams family. It was super fun to make and paint! 

This is a scene from la mes. I painted the angel statues in the back ground. Creepy! 

This has to be my favorite. It's a picture that is found In the Adams family house in the old movies. I did this replica for the scera okay the Adams family. 

School work in reality

So this is what I do during English class. Very productive instead of writing about existentialism. 

Painting in sippio

This is a painting I did in sippio Utah with my good friend skylar and her family.  We were originally planning to go and paint cows majestically in the sunset but it was to cold outside so instead we just painted inside with our eisels on the counter and uses picture references from Pinterest. It was a good day and a really fun trip! 

Light Bulb Angler Fish

My Bird Mac

Here is an illistration of my pet bird Mac. I scanned it form my sketchbook then I added color with photoshop. :)

Hedge Hog

Here is a project I did for my Art class. The assignment was to create a childrens book illistration.

Disney Up Character Design

So, I found this AMAZING website where I can look at lots of character designs for a bunch of animated movies. Since I want to be an animator I have been using this website to practice my cartooning skills. :) here is a link to the website! http://livlily.blogspot.com/

Short Film Mashup

Here I combined two of my favorite short films. Paper Man from Wreck it Ralph and The Blue Umbrella from Monsters University. I ADORE these short films and have been meaning to do this one for a while! Enjoy!

Norwhales

                                                              More Unicorn Whales!

Here are some pictures from my sketchbook that I never put up. I really like chameleons so I drew a picture of one with stripes. This picture kinda represents standing out and being different because he is striped when the background is checkered. 

                                                   I have decided I really like narwhales

 My friend suggested that I draw a moose with a mustache a bear with a beard and a goat with a gotee 

Cat In The Hat Play Props.

I'm helping my aunt who works at the Scera Theater for the arts who is in charge of the props there. I painted a few posters and this giant book for the play Suisical the Musical.

Sketch Books of a Life Time

Here are all the sketch books I have ever had in my life. I am only 18 and I have 17 Sketch books (that I could find) For this project I want to go through all my old sketch books going from the most recent to the least recent and I am going to take pictures of the inside to show how far I have come from a child to now!

This is the sketch book I am currently working on. It started on Sept. 17 2012 to Today Jan. 20 2014. Here are It's contents. 

Here is my Totoro sketchbook. I used this one during the summer of 2013. Starting in July and ending in September. 

I don't have dates for this sketchbook but It was during my Jr. year of  high school. 

This sketch book was some time during the summer and the beginning of Jr year. 

This is my sketch book sophmore year. It has the most depressing content. 

 

 This is my sketch book from 7th grade :D so long ago! 

 This is actually my very first painting! 

 I found this sketch pad laying around and I figure its around the summer before 7th grade. 

 6th grade

 This sketch book is 5th grade

 I think this is from early 7th late 6th grade

 I brought this to camp in 5th grade. 

 I think this might be from around 5th or 4th grade.

 This book starts in 2nd grade and goes all the way to 3rd grade. some of my oldest drawings are in here.

This picture is all the way back from 2nd grade. The point of this REALLY long blog is to recognize progression. To realize that to become good at something you HAVE to practice, usually talents don't just come pop right up into your face, you have to find something you love and you have to work and develop it. Even though most of my sketch books were filled with mostly cows, aliens, chipmunks and birds I think its a good thing to go back and look at all the things I have done in the past. It brings back lots of memories.
