things are looking up

Those are some of my trading cards from the event at the confed centre that I like best. There are 38 of them all together. And they're only 2 x 3.5 inches. That's pretty small.

In case you missed it.

"at least let me have the balloon"

"I didn't like it"

"Not yet"

"It happened again"

"fuck off"

there you have it, friends.
a small portion of what was in my art show in convenient internet form.
just in case you don't love me enough to come see it in person.

pupiless

trains are bumpy.

stop, please.

I haven't been alone in a while.

hugs help

I am back from Europe and painting again. I missed painting. However, my free trial of lightroom is over and now I am without photo editing software (with the exception of iPhoto, which barely qualifies). Sad.
In other news, I will be having an art show at ampersand on the 17th of July. Hopefully that will motivate me to make some of the ideas in my head into things that can be seen by other people.

just walk away

I am working on a new painting right now, and in anticipation for that something new, here is something old.

just waiting

I generally doodle wrinkly, pudgy things. This is a good example of one of those things.
I found my sketchbook, in case you couldn't tell.

quadrilateral

In an attempt to draw things that are not sad, here is something quadrilateral. Quadrilateral things are not sad.

diddle doodle.

Most of the drawings I like best are the drawings I do when I'm supposed to be doing something else. It's unfortunate, because that means a lot of my favorite drawings are in the margins of my class notes, or on my hands or feet.

you first

This was in my sketchbook which I seem to have temporarily misplaced. Unfortunate.

when no one was looking

I'm not even sure what's going on in this picture, to be honest. I do know it was inspired from the "furies" (Eumenides) that I read about in the Oresteia in my ancient tragedies class, though.

the glow

I probably should have posted this picture before the previous image. I just got a little excited to have finished something recently. This is from Octoberish I believe.

something about love

Ah, unrequited love.

collapse

This is one of my first and only charcoal drawings.
I'm not terribly pleased with the little man on top of the pile, but I certainly like the circle.

I'm very fond of circles.

not the happiest place to be

Sometimes people get sad. This is about being sad, like a lot of my drawings are.
In other news, essay writing is not fun.

stuck

For some reason the colors on this got fucked in the upload process. The bright blue is supposed to be redish, and the rest of the colors don't really look anything like that. I can't imagine how that happened.
Oh well. This is my button design for "Cute as a.."
You'll see it in its correct colors on a button soon enough.

That's the way the wind blows, I guess

So I figured I needed a place to put the art I make besides facebook.
This is that place.
Don't expect interesting posts with words. Well, maybe a few words. Mostly paintings, though.
