THESIS: EXHIBITION!

And now my senior exhibition is up!  Stephanie and I worked on painting the wall the same color as the kids' bedroom as well as painting the moon and the stars on top of that color.  I also brought in my lamp and my rug.  To complete the feel of the room a teacher let me borrow some magic boxes.  The overall effect is pretty great!





And here's the individual pieces I put up for the show!!!

THESIS: Almost Over!

With school done and over with [still so hard to believe] I'm now gearing up to take on putting up my thesis exhibition!!!  Recently I grayscaled one of the sketches I did early on in the year of the kids' bedroom.  I think this sets the mood I was going for when I drew it.


I never thought I'd like coloring in Photoshop, but I really liked working on this.  I think I'd like to continue this process- importing my traditional drawings into PS and coloring them this way.  To be really ambitious... I'd like to do one of these a day, but I'm not sure if I'll get to that point just yet.  Let me know what you think!

More!

I just scanned more drawings that I found buried in my room.  Here they are!

  
I figured I would do a quick environment sketch just to make sure I didn't forget how to draw over winter break.  The drawings below are sketches of Danny's different pajama options and another view of the kids' room.



Finished the above gesture drawing in between exercises I worked on with my Intro to 2D class that I TA for.

Tried to do a more warped fisheye perspective while lying down on the floor of my bedroom.  It was super fun drawing the window!

Research sketches created during my semester abroad in Italy- I was inspired by Venice, the buildings rising out of the waters, and Piazza San Marco.

THESIS: Finished Layouts!

Also haven't posted this up, but here are some finished layouts Stephanie colored and I drew~






THESIS: Potential Space Planning!

Yesterday I went out and looked at Steph and my thesis space and sketched some roughs of what Steph and my thesis exhibition space could look like.  Steph came up with the AWESOME idea of painting the creepalicious moon and stars on the wall with our stuff/ painting the wall the same indigo color as the kids' bedroom.  (Why yes, I do have a great thesis partner :D)  Here's some sketches of what our exhibition space could look like:

Happy Early Valentines Day!

Lately I've been trying to dedicate some time to my own projects.  This comes in the form of one day a week during the time I TA.  It's been a nice break from thesis work.  Recently I took the crazy-in-love character from my "Love Letter" animation that I did in 2D character and watercolored her for everyone's Valentine's Day card.  Then I touched her up in Photoshop and now I have to print her and mail her out.  Happy early Valentine's Day everyone!  Next up, clown girl!
