This is the same still life done by the analytical cubism only it's now synthetic. I like this one because of the colors and my color scheme. This also seems to have good balance to me. I think it's funny how starting out, it's like, it needs something here, now over here, and then at the end, you're like, holy cow, I just figured out what balance is! lol, that's what happened in this one. Epiphany. Title by the way is Keys. (bc those are piano keys)


This is the analytical cubism.Best part of this is the upper left hand corner that is cut out of the picture I think. It's good overall. I'm starting to like drawing by observation more and more. YIKES!

This is the inclass piece number two. It's my encostic and I went with an oriental theme. I got my ideas from my egg roll wrapper and just drew designs. I hope you can see the detail on the leaves. It's all watercolor, india ink, and wax. It's aaaiight.

First Piece for in class!!! This is the papercut. I really like my flowers, but the girls shoulder is awkward or something. Idk but I'm pleased overall. It's 14x17 and just black paper and white matte board underneath. :D

This is my tryptic...prompt: Inside of the Cupboard. It's drawn from observation and also contains more typography. Click to see it larger...there are words behind the words on center panel? piece? Whatever, y'all arent' stupid... you'll figure it out. Basically my cupboard is just full of hundreds of Mario Olive cans. Man I love olives.

This is the fourth piece. My hand under tension. My actual hand is on the right, pulling the string to cut on the light. I recieved inspiration for the dyptic by deciding to draw the lightbulb... Then thought it'd be cool to do one lights out, one lights on. So, that's what I did. Left says lights out, right says lights on. My hand could definitely be better, but I'm pleased with my lightbulb, and with the piece overall. Click on it to see it bigger... I was too lazy tonight to crop the image.
