ARRRRGGGgggggh.... Illustrator Woes

Learning how to vector with the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator nearly put me in a straight jacket. Luckily, a good friend, Adam, sat next to me in class and walked me though it. Thank you Adam!! Now I'm kinda getting the hang of it!

A thoroughly penitent post

I know, I know! I haven't posted in FOR-EV-ER.... sorry. Oh well. What's done is done. But it is a new year and a new semester. I hope to post at least once a week! I know its shocking after my 4 month sabbatical from blogging. It'll probably help that I'm taking digital illustration from Bro. Franson this semester and I'm determined to like it! So. You all should be seeing more from me! Yay!

And just to prove that I've been doing something here is a picture....

Book Sail

This doodle is supposed to be me (well maybe a little skinnier, but its artistic freedom right?) at the Farmer's Market this last weekend. It was soo windy, it nearly took our tent thingy! It just would not stop! The gale lasted pretty much the entire market. I gotta say though, I had very cute "wind-swept" hair after.

Oh and this is my first official digital painting, after my first lesson with Hollie. Thanks! I think you'll be seeing more of these after I have some more lessons.

Unsuspecting Birds

So it's darker and there are birds to help tell the story better. I'm happier with it, but not completely. I'd love a critique!

Sky Angler Fish

Little did the unsuspecting bird know that a Floating Angler Fish would find his next Meal in the Cloud Canyon.

Sami D. Sketch

This is my twin Sister! We don't look very similar... maybe cousins but not twins right? Well thats because we're Fraternal Twins not Identical. Anyway, she is sooo photogenic its not even fair, but that makes her a perfect Model for me!!!

Gorf~ Character for "Swamp Hunt"

This guy is a Gorf (frog spelled backwards) Ingenious I know. Anyway, this Gorf leaves behind a huge foot print, being that his body is blob on a foot, and a little boy thinks this foot print belongs to a huge creature.

Look that this adorable face!!
