The last assignment in my oil painting class was figure painting. I was a bit nervous to start since I had only started to oil paint a few weeks before. For the record, it does not quite look like the original photo but my instructor informed me that most artists never do 
. Overall, I both love and hate the painting. I keep going back and forth but that means that there is something there.

In my oil painting class, I had to do a reproduction of a famous master’s painting. Because I have a love of color, I chose Van Gogh to work from. I was instantly attracted to the deep blues in the sky and the contrast within the fields. Hope you enjoy.

I do not paint and have not done it since the brand mural I did way back with my BF Kirsten. At the time, that was my first painting ever! This summer, I decided to take an oil painting class at Callanwolde to get me back into creating art again. Above is the first piece I did for the class…a still life of a red pepper. The piece was a lot of fun for me. I especially liked discovering that I do not need black to do the shadows of the cloth fabric. Who knew!!

I personally believe that to be an artist, you have to constantly push your self into doing something new in order for you to grow. This work is it. I personally never have painted before but this work was my first true attempt at it. After months of Sunday’s working on it with my BF Kirsten, we finally completed it. What started out as just a project to decorate her office, turned into one of the best projects I have worked on in my life. Not only did I learn to paint better, I also became closer to one of my best friend in the world. I hope you enjoy and can find and identify your favorite brand icon.

Over the past couple of weeks, I have been working on a new floral color pencil drawing. Since launching the site, I have been surprised by the visitor feedback telling me how they love the flower drawing amongst my portfolio. These comments made me think that I should do some more of the series. For this work, I kept within the floral family and based the piece off another work from the Harold Feinstein series. I did, however, decide to flip the color in the piece and design it with cool colors. I chose cool for two reasons. The first being the color adds drama to the flower and the second because the piece became a Christmas present to my folks. My parents have wanted something by me for quite a while. Currently, my mother has all my high school drawings on exhibit in her house. Since allot of my work is faces, I thought she might like a piece of the floral series more than seeing a woman on her wall.

Right before I graduated from college, I worked on this particular collage for my best friend, K. To this day, five years later, I still feel that this piece is one of my best collages I have ever made. Every part of it screams her from the M&M to Alucard. I still remember asking her way back what her favorite color was. I always ask this question to the person I am drawing because I use their favorite color as a main backdrop color in the work. Her answer was so K. She said and I quote BLACK. Of course I did not want black as the color since the paper is black so I eventually got her to tell me her second favorite, Red. The rest is history.

Over the last month, I have been working on this new drawing. I can say that this piece is something different for me. From looking at my past work, you can see that this particular drawing focuses on something new which is a guy. I have always drawn figures of women over the years but never men. Something about this photgraph made me want to create the work you now see. This work also incorporates another new thing. I drew him unlike my past pieces in realistic tones and shades. Hope you like. Maybe this will start me working on a new creative path.

While still an art major back at UGA, I took a photography class during my spring semester. This photo is a re-print from the original shot that i took from my homemade camera.

As part of my earliest works, She “Hulk,” has become one of my favorites. I can honestly say that I did not come up with her name but I find it to be fitting. It is not every day you see a girl the color of green unless you are watching something out of Star Trek. Something about the drawing three years later still gets me excited. Maybe it is the glow of the green face or the big hoop earrings. I remember working on this drawing and experimenting with color. To this day, this is the quickest work that I completed from start to finish.

With all my artwork, this is the first and only drawing specifically created for a person. All my other works have been solely for me. When I created her back in 2004, I’ve just completed Moonlight, which shows in the continued use of blue shades in the drawing. I found the construction of the eyes to be a challenge in the work since they represent the most prominent features on the face.
