Spiral Bound

Ink and watercolor on canvas

Ink, markers, acrylic, stamp on mylar

This one hangs on my wall and I can’t quit looking at it. Watercolor, oil, buttons and thread….on canvas.

This is a collage painting, having to do with us being either trapped in reality, or trapped in our dreams.  Medium is oil on glass and wood.

Prismacolor on paper

An old drawing from high school – prismacolor colored pencil on paper

This one was done for painting class – oil on shaped canvas.

This is a fake book cover, yay fake book covers! Acrylic paint and photoshop.

I’m not entirely sure what this illustration is about. Mostly? I wanted to draw “high society” elephants drinking coffee at the coffee place of my imaginings – Mozart’s Monday. This is done in ink and watercolor pencil.

This is a fake CD cover album done for illustration class. It was done with acrylic on watercolor paper, photoshop added.

This is something I did in high school, but I thought it was cool so I put it up. Prismacolor pencil on paper.

This is both sides of the front cover. Acrylic and photoshop were used to complete it.

Here’s the inside of the cover, a dedication for Dave. Photoshop and acrylic.

This is the back of the CD cover.

This is a CD cover I did for a playlist I put together. Done in acrylic paints, text in photoshop.

I tried to put too many songs on one CD, so I had to make another cover. Same medium.

This is a CD cover I illustrated for my illustration class. It isn’t really their CD cover. No excitement. This is done with graphite, pen, acrylic, thread, and the magic of photoshop.

I painted this for my first painting class. This is an oil glaze with acrylic and oil, done on the backside of a whiteboard, with wooden frame and glass.

This is a series made in printmaking class. Each image is etched from the same copper plate and printed on paper.

Just playing around with a doodle I jotted down on a syllabus. Combination of graphite, prismacolor, and photoshop.

This is kind of a steampunk marching band…person. It was drawn in graphite on paper, then printed on a transparency which was painted on both sides with acrylic. The transparency was then laid down on another transparency with the drawn and photoshopped gears, and those two transparencies were laid on some pretty scrapbooking paper.

Here’s an illustration I did for an application brochure for Blue Thunder. Drawing tablet and photoshop.

This is a collection of all the Morrison Center mural sketches, thrown as line drawings into photoshop, where they were quickly colored for a general concept. Of course the French horn player is in the middle.

Just think shadows…and…imagine. Pen and photoshop.

We were assigned to make a play poster. I drew this on photoshop from a photograph I’d taken earlier. My first drawing-on-photoshop experience.

Estracia, the flutist. Notice the garter sheath with the piccolo.

Lizzy and Charles. What do clarinets and guillotines have in common? They’re both sharp instruments. They’re both lethal instruments. And they’re both most effective when dropped from high places.

Ozzymandias. P.S. Werewolves are incredibly difficult to draw. Harder to draw than saxophones, in fact.

This is Hiroshi, the headless horn man.

This is Larry. Even without a face, this guy somehow looks EXACTLY like my trumpet friend John.

York here is one of my favorites. Cliche, but cute, in a bony kind of way.

This is Constance, and yes, she keeps her euphonium in a mini coffin.

Marley always should have been weighed down by a sousaphone. It would definitely have kept him grounded.

This guy here is Edward. But the creepy hands are coming out of the drum.

Ihernia was drawn on a train heading to Silverton, Colorado.
