Art Exchange- MTB

Makeshift Terror Beak, Mixed Media, 8.5"11"

A bunch of my friends did an art exchange event and I did this piece for my friend, Tara. I based it off a comic she did during our beginning illustration class, as well as graffiti. I pick up a lot of graffiti influence from The Seventh Letter, CBS crew. Craola is probably my favorite writer. Doing art for others is always fun for me to do, and she seemed pretty stoked when I gave it her, so yeah... dope!

IPYB Collaboration

IPYB, Mixed Media

I did this piece with my friend, Bryan Kistler (check his stuff out) and we put it in a Graffiti Show. It was located behind a recycle center, which I thought was a pretty cool place to do an art show at. Collaborating on a piece was a great experience, luckily we didn't complicate choices (but may will next time) and it was a fun and spontaneous process.

Long overdue but I haven't been keeping up with posting. And if people know... that is Giant One's Tag. I ran into him in an artshow.

Sub-Zero Shrunken Heads

Me, two girls, Brian, Kristina, Sideshow Bob, what appears to be some kind of Dan and Harley Quinn, and Hardcore Jerome are in Content Magazine's "space" issue. These were during the Sub-Zero Festival, an artwalk in San Jose, a couple of months ago.

Cephlacidae

Cephlacidae, Graphite, Painter

Spent some time on Painter, figuring out ways to use it. This was an old drawing back when I was still in my Beginning Illustration class. In this I was just trying to retain the original drawing and just playing around. I also got that metallic look I was trying to achieve. I worked under this notion as well.

"Pyle never understood color. He realized this and it embittered his whole life. But he arrived at this fundamental truth about color; the shadows carry the drawing and the light carries the color."
