Slice of CakeIllustration 1 class, assignment was to graphically present some sort of food using only black on white. |
|
Heron and Florida PantherIllustration 1 again, same vein as the above assignment only we had to show some sort of a predator/prey relationship. Sp I chose a heron and the Florida panther (a smaller cousin of the cougar). |
|
Cosmic LionsNot really an assignment, but on our first few days of Computer Illustration 1 class, we were encouraged simply to mess around in Photoshop using stock images. I somehow created this and later used it for an Astronomy assignment. Don't ask. |
|
Cyborg BatIllustration 1 again. The assignment was create a chimera of both natural and artificial components, using acrylic paint. I figured bats already use sonar to catch their prey and find their way around... so this little brown bat got a sonar dish for ahead. How it's going to eat that moth when it catches up... I don't know. |

Cyrano de Bergerac PosterSenior thesis. I did a bunch of character designs and other elements for Cyrano de Bergerac as though it were going to be an animated feature. This was the movie poster I designed. |
|
CyranoJust a portrait of my main character. |
|
Heron and Florida Panther In ColourSame as the image further up, only in colour. We had to take our previous work and make a copy of it onto brown paper (which had very much the same texture and weight of the paper used for grocery bags) and then colour it with Prismacolor Pencils. |
|
IbisNot really an assignment, but I had finished the black and white heron picture early and felt like doing another little drawing along the same vein. |
|
IcebergAssignment was simple; landscape in acrylics. But while everyone else was looking for flowery fields or mountains or the like... I chose to do something icy. Several reference photos were used obviously... but I don't think this view actually exists in nature. |
|
Lioness and CubAUGH! High school work! My first time using prisma pencils. If the animals look familiar, it's because I used a Zoobooks about big cats for reference. |
|
The Refreshment GirlBack to my senior thesis. This was the final character design for the little Orange Girl from the first few scenes of the play. Not a main character, I thought she was cute. |
|
RoxanneOur leading lady of my senior thesis, Roxanne, beloved of the title character. |
|
Still Life With FruitAllow me to express my abiding hatred for pastel dust and coquille board. This is compliments of Illustration 2 class... I spent weeks on this piece and it turned out wonderful... but I am never using this medium again. |
