Brought to you by the humble life of a blobfish

I made it to my school's illustration department's spring show! I can't make it to see it but if ya wanna see The Academy of Art's spring show, I'd highly suggest it. We got some fabulous talent, oh boy. Here's the piece that made it in.

These other two didn't make it in but go along with the same project I did in Illustration 2 (a watercolor medium based class)

victory rolls

Those were my two pieces that got into the show. A swell show and a really interesting venue place. It was raining that night and with my friends in a cab we got lost. It's ironic the place is at a dead end and it's called "goforaloop" hyuck hyuck we sure did. I didn't sell anything but it was really nice to see some old faces that came to show support. I hope to get into s'more serious shows where more of my pieces can get in. The ones that are mine is the smallest one in the middle (the aquatint etching of the williamsburg bridge I posted in my last entry) and this old scratchboard piece

I left a bit early to go see Simian Mobile disco, who I will say, were AMAZING! I danced my hoo-ha off. So I didn't get any pictures taken of me during my gallery show but here's one with me and couple friends outside of the Mezznanine. Wish I had a picture of my outfit without my coat. It sure was cute :3
Also I put my hair in victory rolls but you cannot tell. Sorry I can't seperate my art from being a girl in my blog sometimes

Freedminds show!

http://www.thefreedminds.com/
A few of my pieces will be featuring in the Freedminds show this Friday with a bunch of other local artists. It's gonna be quite the party I know it. Anyone in the bay area reading this should definitely come.

Here's a scratchboard piece I did this semester in printmaking that will be in it and will be for sale.

Like A Virgin

For this painting I did Spring semester for Clothed Figure painting class I took pictures of my v v v fashionable friend Danielle. I look forward to seeing her just to know what she's wearing (AND BECAUSE I LIKE HER DUH). She dresses with the same sass (and amount of accesories) as Madonna on a regular day basis. Gawrsh I wonder what she's wearing now......... BUT I DIGRESS! This is her Madonna Halloween costume. So here's the photoshoot for that painting I've been meanin' to post

SHE'S SEEEWWW CUTE

pages from my tangible journal

I scanned a few things from my moleskin of this past year. It's not an art moleskin more of "I HAVE TO JOT THIS DOWN RIGHT NOW" and a million to do lists. So many of them and so little room I had to start putting tracing paper over it. So nothing to aesthetically pleasing. Here are a couple that aren't embarrassing to show imo

The "whatever dude" drawing was copied from a piece that was shown in my ancient art history class. I thought it was funny that there was one girl looking away from the royal ceremony not giving a whoo ha.

one lousy sketch for my halloween costume of Cat Bus from My Neighbor Totoro

ME. THE END.

I should be thinking about gach zalifianakis

Ah you can see the look of fierce regret in his choice of pose.

This is my favorite model of all time. He has the body of a god and a color of hair of a god. I mean, white, so old people. But I can't help that he's some mystical creature made up by the greeks or geeks, or something like Steve Martin.

I entered a few things in the Spring show at my school. Hopefully I get in. The last piece is the first time painting oil on gesso'ed flat board. AND I FANCY IT HELLA. That's me friend who models at my school. She's also the first gal in the charcoal drawrin'.

Welcome to my humble lil room. My toaster oven, knick knacks and peanut butter take up my desk space. I'll have to say farewell to my luxurious end of the bed workspace soon.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh and here's my face lyin' next to a quick study I may show ya later. Maybe if the final piece is snazzy I'll show ya that too. Right now I should really be working on an essay... luckily I go to an art school and convinced my teacher I could write about Zach Galifianakis.

HAVE A DAY!

These are from my clothed figure painting classes. I've been slowly tidying up my flickr account (aka my portfolio) of all the bologna and stuff that really doesn't reflect what I want to do with my art. But I'm such a pact rat! Still life is so boring but I can't get myself to delete them yet. Maybe I'll make a seperate flickr that's attached to my website or something.

Anyways, my computer is in the intensive care unit at the mac doctor's. Hopefully he'll make it through. Because boy oh boy I was foolish and have not backed anything up on a hard drive. I knew eveeentually my computer would croak on me. Seeing how I could only spell words like onion and the desktop looks like my room. BUT ANYWAY, I mentioned the mac doctor because one of the genius's, I showed him my work and he said I should really try and get into this certain gallery SF Heist. So I really think I will. I mean whyyyyy not. The worst they could say is no. And maybe if this guy thought highly of me to recommend me going there, maybe I really do have a shot. OR MAYBE HE'S A BIG OLD SCHMOOZY LADY CHARMER whoooooo knoooooows.
