Birth of Venus

I have been working on this piece for a while, but I am finally finished. I was inspired to do a mythological piece, because 2 years ago I went to Italy and saw Botticelli's Birth of Venus and I wanted to do my own version and here it is!

Sleeping Beauty poster

I did this poster for Ballet West for a class project. I had a lot of fun doing it, especially the researching. I went to the library and borrowed 4 different version of the ballet. However I only watched two realizing that they are very similar, with the exception of the costumes. I am especially happy with this piece because it is the 1st time I have done a male figure in this style. I hope you all enjoy it!

Well I have been so busy lately, some may think that I have disappeared of the face of the earth. Not so! I have been drawing, painting and working in illustrator and photoshop consistently from 4:30 am to 7 pm everyday this week to catch up in all my art projects. It came to me that I haven't posted anything new in over a week and I am excited to show you my interpretation of the sun! It is to compliment my dancing moon piece I did a few months ago. I have to say doing a graphic image of a girl doing a barrel roll was no easy task. I still have some tweaking to do, but I still want to share with you! Have a great President's day weekend!

Another Redo of the Snowflake

Thank you to the person that gave me the critique, I think it improved my piece significantly. I am pretty happy with all the changes, from her position to the white outline on her hair and outfit. I would love to hear any more feedback!

Fire Maiden II

I am thrilled to say that I finished the fire maiden piece. Figuring out the fire and her neck and head were challenges for me when I was working on this piece, but I finally got through it. Another difficulty was making the dress and fire become one. I didn't want to make her look like she was being consumed by fire; that would be bad. I am pretty excited by the concept and I hope you like it too.

Fire Maiden

Hello Everyone! I am excited to say I am continuing my art deco inspired girls. I am having so much fun drawing them and I hope you all enjoy looking at my work. For this piece I want to be the opposite of my snowflake, so I chose fire. I drew this girl coming from a flame which turns into her dress, which I am totally excited about. I put my sketch in the computer and now I am going to do a value study of my piece.
