I did this piece in my Illustration 2 class during Fall semester. I had a lot of fun doing this piece because it was our first fully clothed figure in this class and I loved painting this purple kimono. I painted this in oil on canvas.

Civil War Portrait





So I have finally added some more work from last semester and there is more coming. This was an in-class assignment for Illustration 2. I had a lot of fun on this project because we were allowed to crop the figure and focus on the face. I played with the color in the face with the yellows and reds. I am thinking about submitting this piece to the Society of Illustrators competition this Friday.

Here is an outside project I worked on for my mom. I painted her favorite kind of rose and gave it to her for Christmas. I did my underpainting in acrylic and then finished it with oil paints.
