E.T.

This is an example of the the kinda of art I'm doing in my private time. More of this kind coming this fall! My work lately has been inspired by the fantastic-- (fantasy art). I also pull things I've learned from studying fashion illustration such as line quality and my background in general illustration and fine art has helped me pull emotion into my work. I try not to reject either parts of my education so I find ways to fuze all of the concentrations together. This piece makes me think of "thinking", "out of the box', or something along the lines of the subject in a trance or a period of contemplation. I would like to go forward with this and see what else I can pull...

I have this piece representing my style on my business card design.

Wake Me Up When September Ends!

...because I've been dreaming! 

This month, I've honestly had a few monumental moments (at least to me)! I've awaken my soul, well I've pushed myself to achieve some goals and have gotten some a few requests for commission work that have allowed me to share my design talents.

^Birthday morning smile! ^ I'm 21!

I plan on using my Facebook fanpage (Artist) as a link log for my stuff published on the web. Another place to stay in link with my updates. Check it out, and if so, please share!

End of Summer Highlight: I got my first logo design job at the end of the summer. I worked on the first official logo design for a company on the foundation of  branding itself to what it is already thriving under the name of.  I was honored to have worked on this logo for Treadwell: Proper Paths. Check it out!

Birthday night out--- FASHION's NIGHT OUT at the Fashion Illustration Exhibition.

Puppy Luck! I was able to spread my love at Anthropologie's SITSTAYLOVE event on Saturday Sept 14th. I set up shop with my inks, palette and pad and got some cool drawings in for customers and their dogs. I was so excited to have gotten the change to do this. My adrenaline was definitely up because I love doing portraits and I've been drawing people live for about 2 years now-- my major required it--lol. So here are some shots from the event.

A portrait for my cousin, Kaurey ;)
