First Painting


This image is a digital mockup of what will be my first painting. The demands of my comic, school classes, and my illustration work leaves me very little time for my own independent art investigation. I think as a result of so much art oriented responsibility, I've somehow developed the need to manifest my ideas elsewhere. . .maybe? Yeah. So this is just a quickly-thrown-together image of a painting I will be slowly cultivating over the coming months. Potential is a theme that I've been thinking about quite a lot lately. This piece, I'm hoping, will illustrate a sense of potential as subject/landscape, whatever. It's dependent on process. It's dependent on mark-making. It's space. It's detached. It's mine.

It's Whatever You Want It To Be


This is a photograph shot by my favorite photographer, the Hubble Telescope! This literally looks like whatever you want it to look like. I think it looks like a face or a ninja. Grace thinks it looks like a tiger. It kind of looks like Africa too. Ninjas, tigers or Africa . . .all have no business in outer space! How inspiring.
