some break paintings

quick watercolor doodle of some sailor guy i made up
flight deck grunt from Battlestar Galactica, which a good friend has gotten me hooked on...
Some interesting telephone lines I drew while sitting in a car waiting for ten minutes.

Hello guys, I'm on spring break. It is not spring, but it is a break, so I'm spending it applying to jobs, ordering biz cards/mailers, and painting when I'm not asleep. I'm recovering from a very tough, very stressful winter quarter. But hey, I got a 4.0!!!! All A's, baby!!!!

Totally worth all that hell and throwing away my social life haha

Hope to paint more... all i have home right now is my watercolours and a tablet.

Pierce shop and sketches

so i needed to blow off some steam because the below painting wasn't going so hot. And this gouache ballerina happened. Oh and random sketchbook ramblings from a test i took this mornin'.
piece one. Jason of Primitive Impressions looking at a tongue barbel
Jason working on my friend Emma.

acrylic on illustration board. I'm not that pleased with the outcomes. I got pretty burnt out at the end of this crazy quarter.

some progress on the second piece in my visual essay series. Currently like it better than the first. But I totes screwed up the first one by pushing myself yesterday. I will have both done tomorrow night. Acrylic on ill board.
And hey. Bastardizing the amazing McBess's style. Self portrait.

Some gladiators, some pugs.

sad spartacus. gouache. no pencil underdrawings.
more sparty. gouache. no pencil underdrawings on these.
PUGS. again, just goin' for it. no pencil underdrawings.
doodling people at the mall. and a very distorted guitar.

Been watching Spartacus thanks to a certain person. Which means lots of opportunities to study (for artistic reasons only of course) naked people.

Been very busy lately- will have more pieces up soon.
