1st Joe

Yeah this was the first "Joe" I created in my Political Science class. As you can tell he's not as fat as my new Joe, but still worth showing. Plus.... I've been learning to color in photoshop! If you look at all my other characters you'll deffinently be able to see the progress lol.

This is Joe on my notes: pen and highlighter only.

Back and White: Took a while to remove all the colors and bumps.

And now the color.... not as bold as pen, but much smoother.

Typical

So yesterday was my birthday! Yay! Now I'm old....
Anyhoo, here's an update, colored it on photoshop. But maybe I'll color it again later cuz I still don't know any proper way to color things. Enjoy.

I'll update more later!

Whats Growing?

So thanks to my wonderful boyfriend I've decided to start growing some plants of my own. Yes I'm still drawing, and yes I have things to post but with all my school, I have a hard time working on my pictures. As for plants, I've only got to water them every so often and they take care of the rest. Without further adeu....





This is a sunflower!


And there is two of them so they can be best friends!

And this is my jalepeno plant!


He is very healthy.



Next time I'll have some drawings up! Thanks for visiting.

Random

Yeah I'm on a roll! lol Just messing with the smudge tool. But it's just one color smudging, so nothing special like shadows or nothing. Plus I used highlighter to color her.

Dunno what I'll work on next. :)

Joes Wife

This is Joe's Wife.... hence the title. Anyhoo, I've decided to just go black and white for now. Eventually I'll give her color once I learn all about it. I'm open for any tips... but keep in mind, I've only got Photoshop 7.0 (don't laugh). It works so what's it matter?

I should be working on my Anatomy chapter outline.... but everyone needs a break once in a while right? See yall next time!

Apprehensive Joe

Alright!!!! Last Joe expression. Well, I'm pretty new to photoshop so this is all learn as I go. Eventually I'll learn to put in colors from photoshop and not just try and fix up my own colors.
Now I'll be able to work on my other characters! Hope yall keep watching and feel free to leave any comments!

Surprised Joe

Alright facial expression number 2! Hope yall like.I should have the last expression up soon. And then I'll work on other characters.

P.S. Real Wives of New York ~~~~ sucks! It's just a bunch of rich highschool drama girls stuck in old lady bodies. Married or not they're all insecure about themselves, which leads to useless catty fights.

Expression 1 - Sad Joe

This is one of three facial expressions that I've created for Joe, i'm still fixing up the other two so hang tight.

Character Designs

Well my friends, this is Fat Joe. He is one of several characters I've designed and as soon as I fix them up i'll also post 'em. I really enjoy character designing so if anyone wants me to draw one let me know! All i need is a general description of their apperance, and a short personality to match. Or for a real challenge just give me a name and i'll do the rest.

If yall want to see more of my character designs then click the 'Follow' button on the top right of my page. Thanks and stay tuned!

Alright! Just a bunch of stuff that I don't know when else to put up... except now. So enjoy. this is a sketch i drew in one of my classes last semester with a ballpoint pen.
This was my art project part A. It involved one shape (triangle) overlapping and flowing off the page. I used acrylic paint (just black and white or a mixture of the two) that's why it looks so shiny. I suppose I went at this with a more geometrical pattern rather than a compulsive one. The lines of symmetry lie diagonally, but the different shades skew that symmetry even further.This one was part B. Where we needed to take our single shape and create a solid form. I decided to create an almost spindle-shape form from the triangles which rested on a sheet of floating paper (giving it a sence of space), also having the original picture (part A) on that paper. I also used acrylic here, but the flash from my camera made the gradient background look all wonky.



Finally, my still life. Our objective was to bring in objects to create our own still life and convert that into cubism. This has been my first crack at cubisim so I'm not expecting too much out of it. For this I used charcol and water.
Stay tuned for some character designs!!!

Life Update

Hello again! I've just started another semester at Texas State and I'm lovin' it! So my classes are as follow; Anatomy & Physiology II (w/ lab), Microbiology (w/ lab), Political Science II, and Philosophy. I'm not one for posi, but the professor relates all her lectures with music so I think this'll be a good class. If anyone passes this blog and wants to talk about any of these subjects I'd be more than happy to!

Sorry I don't have any sketches for 'yall now, but I've got pictures from Brazos Bend State Park. Enjoy!
