Owl

Step one complete.

Owl

My friend Aja commissioned me to do two owl paintings. This is what I've got so far. Not sure what I'm gonna do for a background but I knew I wanted to do some more graphite work. I like the contrast that it makes and I haven't done anything like that in a while. It's a little intimidating to do an entire skeleton in pencil. Very time consuming.

Self Portrait

This is what I've done since I've been back. It's a blind contour drawing I did of a photo of myself. I might mess with it a little more, I don't really like the color. The idea was to make it look like it had been painted on top of piece of floral wallpaper, but I might just cut it up then actually glue it to a piece of wallpaper. I'd have to find the right wallpaper though.

Back from Alaska!

Had a blast, played music on big run down boat that had been dragged into the middle of the woods for a festival(classic), took a small amount of hallucinogines, drank a large amount of booze, did some nacho slinging at the state fair, and got a little over zealous with a padded sword that I got for my birthday which really hurt when used with a little force(sorry Michaela, Garett, Aurora, Jessy and any other undeserved victims of a severe pummeling). I had a couple pictures from the trip but sadly they all got erased when I tried to update my phone, so you'll have to use your imagination.

I just moved into a new apartment and plan on leaving it as little as possible for the duration of what's probably going to be another cold and rainy winter in Ptown. Just gonna draw.

Hiatus

Not much going on in the way of drawing these days. Playing a lot of music to get ready for the Trapper Creek Music and Arts Festival in few weeks. Some how we're never quite prepared.
