our scaner is't really big enough to fully show all of an 18x24 but i wanted to show the color contrasts and the detail

i'll find a bigger scanner somwhere

hi persons,
regretably i haven't yet found that camera of mine but untill i do i can use my mom's (oddly this notion only ucured to me about five minutes ago) anyway i took a couple pictures of the peice i finished a while ago.

this paricular painting i put alot of heart into. the city portion is simbolic in black textured buildings and a multicolord red backing. or as i took the meaning when i made it my anger and desolation at being made to leave the place i concidered my home. the forest portion as you can see is painted and made with the colors i have always loved best various shades of green and a mixed background. my former home would at best be considered a little more to the "wild" side. every now and then i miss the ocean and pine trees alot and then somthing like this usualy comes to mind then later down to paper.

hello peoples sorry there should be several more drawings and painings on but of late i seem to have misplaced my camera in the maze that i call my room, either its somewhere in there or its downstairs. honestly im hoping its downstairs the thought of going through all that is SCARY really you have no idea..
anyway im currently working on this awesome coathanger/bench thing and so far it look really cool (its still on paper) the fact that most of my material needs to be recycled or otherwise unuseable might faze me alittle .... no actualy anything my mom has had for a project in the past is usable so all im really lacking is stronger wood for support..... anyway wish me luck!!! .....and pray i don't injure myself

vacationing in flordia with my relatives. very warm, relaxing and plenty of inpiration. some sketches of them (they don't realy resemble them in the least though) but they would be good for just a random drawing without a model

another totaly awesome part of art is that basicly anything can qualify to the catigory. goes from paintings and drawings like ive already shown to the weirdest stuff (just let your imagination do the work) this one's makeup art (not by me) i'll probly try somthing similar on my brother for halloween. anyway isnt this one really cool????!!!! by the way it's almost unbelivable how hard it was to take these. every tried to take your own picture with your eyes closed?

a wolf from my art class i like this one the most but that may just be me being biased on the subject matter anyway oil pastel and in my opinion very cool

obviously its a lepoard. its in a tree. its got weird eyes. thats as descriptive as im getting.
i made it cause i like big cats. their graceful and in their own world but still aware.
whereas im a pitiful clutz and im in my own little world alot but i tend to run into stuff, walk into poles, and other nonmoving and moving objects.

this is a oil pastel i just recently did. the reddish looking grass stuff should have been rubbed in on bottom and colored on top but i didn't figure that out till later. this art class im in would be the first time ive used oil pastel even somewhat seriously (did try using them a couple years back but i sorta forgot them in the back seat of my mom's car, they melted and well being oil it doesn't come off well..... needless to say i haven't realy had much enthusiasm for it since then)

an abstact i did a really long while ago. the disign in black & white looks similar to a chersanthium. i was doodleing it practicly everywhere for weeks before i decided to try an be brave and go get a canvas from the basement (the basement's full of spiders and bugs)

a painting i did for a birthday present. made it using some acrilic and a ton of paint thinner. experementing really but hey that's what makes it fun

(first time using paint thinner)

these are some of the rare ones i occasionaly come up with upper torso and head, and the other two i did at some time or another when i was reallllllyyyyy bored.

these ones i drew a while ago. the lighting realy doesn't show it up too good. anyway usualy when i draw it's most of the time people and i usualy leave it in pencil only. just seems better that way

don't really know where the idea for this came but here it is mother and child painting. for those of you who know me this not actualy my mother or actualy anyone i even know though the kid does remind me of sombody at my church's kid. anyway acrilic on canvas. i think this is one of the more detailed ones i've ever worked but for some reason i thik this is the one i spent the least time with.......odd

this on i think i did as a cristmass present oe or two years back. it's modeled after ireland for some reason or another that was what i was thinkng that cristmass and whenever i think ireland i tend to think green rolling hills. the messed up looking clouds would be cause i was trying to make clouds the first time around but i ended up mixing the paint and i had to lay it on thicker to cover the weirdlooking part

i belive i did this one in............ 4th grade? well anyway it was right after i went to horse camp so i know its somewhere in elementary school. all done in acrilic and modeled after a few pics i had of a horse i liked i think i really suck with the camera though not a one of these things got a strait angle...

this is one of my first paintings i did it a while ago.... don't really remember when. the chipping behind the sun is probly cause i mixed the acrilic an the watercolor paints didn't know at the time that you weren't really supposed to do that....

hey

this is my blog...... guess thats to the obvious side of things... anyway i have a ton of paintings, drawings, and so on. feel free to comment however you want and don't be afraid to hold back on critisisims if you have'm.
