and I've started painting...or something like that





These are mix of drawing and painting using oil, acrylic, and even pencil. I have started some larger oil paintings and even finished one, but I don't have any images of them yet.

This is a series of drawings that I made for my landscape class. All of them are drawn from the windows of my apartment between the hours of 6-8:30am. Or at least that was what I attempted to do, some of them are drawn a little later in the day :)

some miscellaneous drawings

I made these drawings almost a month ago. I had a post about them before but these are some better images. I've changed the piece a bit too. I built a kind of simple frame for five of these; five felt like a better number than seven and a more practical size. I'm excited about the frame because it isn't a conventional frame. The drawings aren't behind glass, they are just taped from the back onto a piece of board that it is then attached to a wood structure. This keeps the fragile look of the drawings which I really love. I'm ashamed to say that I dont have an image yet of the whole piece together.
I entered the piece in Arcadia's Works on Paper show. I'll find out in about a week if it got in. I'm excited, I haven't entered a show in a while, actually I haven't entered many at all :)
