Man Alive! I have been busy!

Well, busy and working hard. Good news moment, I got second place in the Figure Drawing Show here at BYU, yay! This is the winning piece:

Also I'm learning maya and just completed my first model ever!!!!! :DD SO excited about that! :)

I will be making a second one before the end of this semester, but here is my seal in a view different angles:

I do think the face is still quite a bit creepy looking, (mostly because the UVs around the mouth are kind of messed up, I should have fixed that) but the texturing was fun and I'm pretty happy with it overall being my first model. The next one will be a penguin, then whatever else I can come up with from there. I still have yet to learn rigging and animating as well, which I wish this class would go over but it won't. I'll just have to learn it elsewhere. Special thanks to Josh for helping me out when I got stuck in places. I love you!

Happy Halloweenies!! almost anyway :)

I don't have a halloween piece to post, but I do have lots of head paintings and a mythical creatures farm painting and a lot of peter pan drawings (those will be found in future posts)!!!

Be Excited!

So I have some great news! After two years of building up my portfolio since my last big disappointment, I have finally taken the steps for a second attempt at applying for a BFA in Illustration at BYU, and I GOT IN! wahoo!!!!!! (victory dance!) and I have further more been accepted into the concept design track emphasis of the BFA so I am super psyched! Here's some art to celebrate:
(The colored ones were drawn using a program called Colors3D for the 3DS console. It is a pretty shnazzy digital sketch book. Thank you Josh!)
