Sneak Peek —Spring '12

Here is a horrid cell phone photo of my latest project sitting on the floor of my dorm room (thus the unrelated wood beams in the photograph).

 

I am working on a "conceptual" piece—they want a masterpiece, but sense I cannot seem to figure out what that actually means, they're getting this.  It's much looser than I usually work, but it's still modeled, I'm working with charcoal and pastel pencils and I am just really enjoying myself!
I wish I could describe the feeling of a project—specifically a figure—come to life under your finger tips.  That moment when you swish your drawing tool just right and there it is!

Poof!
Endorphins flying everywhere!
Heart racing with excitement and you do a little hop of glee before continuing with fresh zeal!

Because I'm enjoying the project so much, I have refrained from showing it to Bippes yet.  So far each of my projects have been moved to the computer—which is fine, I mean, that's part of what I do—but really? I finally get a semester to illustrate (draw!!) and I have to spend it on the computer.

Anywho, I'm going to have to show him soon, because I'm pretty far along... but I'm going to wait just a little longer.  Maybe Friday morning will witness a reveal—which would mean a reveal on here of course :)

Stay posted!
