Compass Coming

Roughs and sketches of a comic I'm working on through StoryBuilder for the app NARR8.

The story it self has had so many different titles that I don't remember them all, but the working title so far is "Compass" which I am starting to warm up to more and more. 

Things are still in the rough stages with only a few cleaned drawings being scanned and colored in photoshop. Will try to remember to update more when I can.

Above are three old drawings (done in color pencils with Copic markers) 

of the three main characters in the story.

Dressed up

Worked on decorating a guest book for a friend's quinceanera party that was themed Phantom of the Opera. Made the book completely sparkle with the shimmering dress popping out from its cover.

                           

                   

Feeling Super

I have returned to the ink drawings I did, before I left for my Euro Trip. Here is Wonder Woman, but I also have Super Girl and Zatanna. I am working on coloring WonderWoman and when I get the other two cleaned up and get through some projects I have on my to do list, then I will post and start the colors for them as well.

Summer Pattern

Have not been able to post anything new due to no connection until now.
Lately I have been working on patterns; Here is one that was inspired by summer fun at the beach.
More patterns can be seen from my portfolio site.

A Long awaited post

Have not been able to post anything until now, been busy moving things and rearranging my stuff ever since graduation. I will soon scan a few new drawing, but until I take my scanner out of the box here are a few things that I have been working on during the past busy months. Enjoy!

Two illustrations based on the fairy tale of "Prince Omar and Princess Scheherazade".
From my thesis entitled "Visual Eloquence" where I made illustrations from different fairy tails.

Another illustration I did for thesis, but this one was based on the classic fairy tale "Undine". 

Below is a sketch and illustration from a children book of my own I have been working on for the past few months. 

The Show

Finally the day of the thesis show came (and sadly went). 

The long journey filled with endless days of working, and many other memories, feels like it is at last coming to a close. But as one chapter closes another begins, and from each step of the way those moments will never be forgotten. I have to thank everyone who has ever helped me, inspired me, and guided me through out this adventure. 

I guess now the time has come to walk onto the path into the big world filled with new obstacles and new quests. It will be hard but as long as I keep everything to heart and keep strong and smile on everything will be fine. 

The ten illustrations I did for my thesis entitled:
 "Visual Eloquence"

   

Scarf Girls

With the weather here being really random (from hot to cold within a day) and after finally recovering from a cold I decided to post a simple doodle I like to call the Scarf Girls. 

Valentine!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Special Some Pony

I'm a big fan of My Little Pony; (always have been since the G1 ponies) so I decided to make my Valentine cards this year be of

 MLP Friendship is Magic! 

Though the pony here is no official pony, for it is what I imagine to be myself as a pony. 

Just a little fun I did to relax the mind. 

May your Valentine's Day be filled with lots of magic!  

NEW Layout!

Gave a completely new look to the blog hope everyone likes!

"East of the Sun and West of the Moon"

I am researching different classic fairy tales and folk tales for my illustration thesis due in the spring.

The words came from: "East of the Sun and West of the Moon." 

A Folk tale from Norway; the moment illustrated here is towards the beginning of the tale.

Guardians of the Wood

Finished illustration

Ink with color ink washes and photoshop

Gathered things

"Speak Like a Flower"

The latest illustration I am working on; still not complete but almost there.

An illustration based on the poetry of rhythmic speech of words. 

  ✿  

Ever read something that was so gentle that it almost seemed like a poetic song rather than a story?

 This illustration is based on that and how many have described my stories to be written in what is described as flowery language.     

pencil, ink pen with photoshop and illustrator

Guardians of the Wood-line art

A snap shot from my phone of the ink lines

A little bit of whimsy...
