Figure Drawings - 2




More Figure Drawings- these where from my first session from last year; not my current one.


Conjoined

This was intially just a study, but I had overlapped two skulls, and produced this effect, which I really enjoyed.

Figure Drawings - 1


Ode To Victor Ambrus (WIP)

This is a series of studies or interpretations of the work of Victor Ambrus from his book, How To Draw the Human Figure. I was actually very proud of how these studies turned out- I actually learned alot from drawing them.




Figure (1)

The first piece of my most recent Figure Drawing session. I will upoad more soon.

Animal Selfy


Bison Head

A self-portrait as an animal-- I used Prismamarkers on watercolor paper to create this piece. I would suggest trying it; it works really well, haha.

In Your Veins



In Your Veins

This piece symbolizes the discovery of one's Self, and the many directions and choices one make in their journey through life.

Me, Myself, and I


Clean Shave


RED


60 Percent

All three of these paintings are self-portraits. The top wasn't ever finished; I didn't paint on my goatee. So, I thought it'd be funny to just call it Clean Shave.
The second was loosely inspired by the art style of the the comic illustrator, Ivan Reis, who I am a big fan of. The last piece, 60 Percent, was an assignment we were given over the summer. I had to create a self-portrait at an "unusual angle", and that was the strangest one I could think of. The only reason I added the sea life was because my cheek was a huge, boring, blank space. 

What Matters...


The Missing Piece Is You

You ever have that feeling that something dear is missing? Even if everything seems fine? Thats where this came from. I had put a real puzzle together, and painted over it in acrylic.


Color My Life

A self-portrait of me in the center, with everyone that has had an impact on me that most at the time surrounding my portrait. To give the others in the piece a sense of ownership, I colored them in the colors that they like the most.

Gods and Demons


Angel


 Devil

I really let my imagination go crazy on these concepts. The top image is an angel, and the lower one is a devil, obviously. I wanted the devil to be noticeably related to the angel, as if it literally evolved from an angel. To add irony, the devil is the only one with real wings. But they both share very aquatic features.
