now a rebel and starting from scratch


art 101 we drew our hand without looking at the paper. these are the ones i decided looked the coolest out of the pages and pages of new print. before i switched into Marc dombrosky's class.

the ink still life Marc set up for us, then told us to zoom into places around the room. i have a thing for hands....

the first fae rae ferris and olivia colaboration. we sat next to eachother she held a piece of charcoal above her upper lip... and then we discussed our love for mustaches. marc gave us limitations to creating our own still lifes, skulls with brush and corn mustaches seemed epic.

our second colaboration. again marc gave us free rein we came up with a tragic accident of somewoman chopping off her own arm and hand with her ice skate. accidental or purposefully, you decide. the pincones were just a lovely twist. eventually fae rae became bored and thought of revenge of the pinecones....

creating this angry pinecone being thrusted forward by a floating hand.

one day i was absent the next we did perspective drawings. like hallways, doors and shit. well fae rae became bored of the classic perspective and thumbnailed some rocks. personally i'm not a huge fan of either thumbnails or perspective drawing, so the rocks were perfect for me.

collageing is one of my favorite things to do. so when we were assigned to do one i was uber excited, but things didn't turn out eactly as i wanted them too. but this is fae rae ink charcoal collage, minus glasses. i never draw her with glasses.

fae rae ferris as my subject, she made james. hers was by far the best. james inturn made an experiment with charcoal and watered down ink,forcing the ink to travel downward into a drawn cup. which inspired me to make fae rae with a lonely teardrop.

james loves the boarder.

everytime i drew james he looked like a fairy with googlie eyes. this one the eyes are pretty normal sized but i think james just needs to deal with the fact that i enjoy enlarging his eyes. this is ink james.

like jame i love the ink dripping. the splotches and appearence of textureis neat. this is something i'd really like to explore further.

okay, i totally dispise thumbnails but marc loves them so i decided to incorporate them into my final portfolio by collaging them onto eachother. the painted paper is actually thumbnails that i used in design (art 107) to paint ontop of. HA! but it turned out kinda neat.

this is the first time we used ink, marc is notorious for not being able to stay still while modeling but it makes for an interesting session. with poses titled as swampthing, say anything, and braveheart you can never lose.

these are now on my wall. i enjoy abstract things and i kind of look to thses for inspiration in exploration in this area.
