Figure 2 midterm

These are the best pieces ive done so far in the 2nd Semester of Sophomore in Illustration.

These first 2 a re regular pencil portraits, both took the entire class period. I used a HB pencil to slowly develop the shapes and values.



These 4 are done in Prisma Colored pencil, each was a 20 minute pose and were pretty fun to do overall.

these next 4 are my favorite and done in my favorite media to find the figure with, Charcoal! I can't help but enjoy this media cause it forces me to use my whole body and to use the tool in various and unique ways.

Enjoy

ZG

and now for something completly different

This was the Scratch Board assignment, subject was open so i picked a monkey i wasnt able to do for an earlier project. i really like how it came out and my teacher blew up a piece to probably 4 times the actual size and it looks even better blown up.



These paintings are from Painting 1 with Peter Brown, i enjoyed doing them all to a degree before it felt like i wasnt making any positive progress. ive cropped off areas i didnt like or felt were unneeded

Monochromatic painting and drawing study


Colors that sit next to each other on the color wheel



Split Compliments



White Painting



Night Landscape horrible photo



and this piece is my Darwins Misfit. He is a combination of a Ferret, Hummingbird, Honey Bee. done in water color.

The Figure is fun to draw

so here are figures that ive drawn this year in 2 different Figure 2 classes. please enjoy the feast of human drawings









these are figures from my figure 2 elective from last year, we were aloud to draw figures in any media. I picked 2 dying sharpies and had aton of fun doing these.



These are Figures from my Figure 2 class this semester with Fiore Custode as my instructor, and he DEMANDS structure to be the key to any good drawing. i hope that these have good enough structure.

Oil Rub kid

so in Illustration Media class we had to find an actor or muscian that predated the 1960, to ensure that the photo reference would be in Black & White. I ended up going with Humphrey Bogart. enjoy!

Water color banaza!!!!

so in illustration Media class we just finished up our last water color painting, so i thought id put up the over kill that i did for the assignments. i really enjoyed doing these, and want to continue doing watercolor the way Don Brandes taught us
