Let them eat cake!

I passed my midpoint review last Thursday and have spent the last two and a half days moving out of my apartment. Sitting down in front of the computer today, I found that I didn't have any new art that I wanted to post and none of my older art jumped out and said "I need to be shared!". So....

I had wanted this Blog to be primarily about art. But none of us are just one thing, and today I find that there is so much going on in my life that it is over flowing into my "art blog".

I am getting married this August and am currently in the process of planning the wedding! There will be lot's of DIY projects and whenever I'm not doing homework or working on my thesis I'm scouring the internet for wedding inspiration. I found this photo and just thought it was wonderful!

Here's to a great Sunday!

GeeeeOOOO Character Design

So this might be my new Geo! I really like it, but unfortunately it's just too late to change my presentation for my midpoint which is in two days. I'd have to redo turn-arounds and color studies...I could probably pull it off if I didn't need sleep or sanity.

Oh well, I'll save this guy for the future!

A View With A Room

Here it is! My new and improved artist room!

I am very proud and happy with it. Of course my teacher still thinks I need to put more stuff in. Now I am not a neat person by any means, but I feel that this room is cluttered enough. I mean honestly, can anyone see where I could add more canvases? Anyone?

On to the next project!!

Something old...and blue

I haven't been able to make it to the computer lab (when the scanner is available) to scan anything new. So here is something old...

These days my life is full of stress and frustration. You would think that would stop the flow of creativity. Maybe it has, but when I have the time to work on something I really like, then I don't think it's any less wonderful because I have so many distractions.

I am continuing to work on "the artist's room". Hopefully the new and improved version will be posted soon. Here's to the big scanner being available tomorrow while I am around.

Character Idea

Here's my favorite so far for Geo's character design. Still working on his body, but it's coming along. Now I need to start working on Sula again...and environments, and my timeline, and everything else I need for my midpoint.

The dogs are finally sleeping, so I have about an hour before the craziness starts again.

No problem!

So much stuff to do!

Since I last wrote I got engaged, started planning a wedding and started spring classes. My mid-point review is in two weeks and I need to have a portfolio ready by April to apply for an internship this summer at Pixar.

So that's a long way of saying I'm pretty busy.

This is a layout drawing of an artist room. It was homework for my layout design class. So far I'm loving the class and I think I will get lot's of good portfolio work from it.

Oh did I mention my fiance and I got an eleven week old puppy? Yeah, I'm going crazy right now. But then I feel like I get more done when I have more stuff to do. Sounds weird, I know, but I guess in order for me to be more motivated, I need deadlines. Hopefully this will be a good asset once I get a job.

Here kitty kitty

Here's something I've been playing around with. Nothing really interesting going on and nothing even remotely profound to say.
