Commission

A friend commissioned me to make a painting for him. He gave me some guidelines and a reference for the wolf, and this is what I came up with! Colors are a bit off because of the picture, I will try to take a better one soon.

Size is about 30x24, and it is oil on canvas.

Summer Randomness


Woops, I haven't updated in a while!

Here are two things I made for father's day. My dad asked me to draw a little something for a golf charity event for Autism that my dad helped raise money for! One of their sponsors makes lion head covers for golf clubs, so that explains this drawing.

And he loves Recognizers from Tron, so I surprised him with a little oil painting. :)

Here is a practice painting for an oil painting a friend of mine is commissioning me for. Just spent like an hour on it so I could figure out how I'm gonna paint the real thing! haha


I've been trying to draw at starbucks a few times a week!


I haven't been able to figure draw very much this summer though :/


And a random speed painting using reference (that wasn't done very fast...) haha

Starbucks Siren

So the other day I was looking at the starbucks logo, and I was thinking to myself...hm....I wonder what it's supposed to be.


I did a google search and apparently it's supposed to be a Siren, a two tailed mermaid.

I decided to draw the full body version of the logo, enjoy~

Vis Dev & More

So this year I have discovered my love for Visual Development and character design. It combines my love for painting, design, and animation. I have a lot of work to do this summer to improve, but it will be fun.

First is my style guide that I made for my VisDev class at Calarts with the amazing Lisa Keene.

Next are just some drawings I have done the past week since being home for summer. Expect hopefully at least a post a week, or more. :)







There was this commercial on tv about a cat treat that is only 2 calories...did you know cats count calories too?

An Update?

Well films are over, it was quite an experience. I had a lot of fun, but I'm really looking forward to next year. I'm planning on doing a lot of concept work this summer!

Anyway, here is a little animation I did for the producer's show this year. I added a background for fun.


Sorry the colors got all weird.
