What IS it?

(approx. 24x24 softpastels, masking tape, acrylic medium)

People who I have been talking to about this piece apparently have a hard time knowing what it really is. So what IS it? Whoever guesses right will win a flash portrait of themselves. Is it worth anything? Nope, but it's fun. The people that I have specifically told what this is aren't allowed to play; I'm sorry. 

I will say this though, it is a close up image. Of what? You tell me.

Repetitive Drawings = fixative and a lot of it



I was originally going to draw 100 charcoal images of myself in a walking sequence to create a 10 x 10 image art piece, but it became too much work for the deadline I had to make.  After not being able to pull off 9 x 9, I concluded with 64 images for 8 x 8. After scanning and uploading all the drawings, I was able to project the images in sequence to produce a charcoal drawing animation on to the 8 x 8 images on the wall.  Maybe I'll upload the animation some other time.

You've been Socked

Meet the boyfriend, Matt. He likes socks.

 Actually it came about from the short story Johnny Mnemonic by William Gibson. Enjoy.

Transsssformers

I love all these Macromedia Flash produced adaptions I've been making. They're techinically art, but I would just call them fun and fast drawings. This is one of the pictures I am going to paint; not looking exactly like this of course. I'm sorry if my flash skills disapoint, they disapoint me too.

The Seagull and the Beach ball



This is how I felt today with my art...having something familiar right in front of me, yet I feel like there is still so much more to know about it.

Orange Couch


"Orange Couch"

it took me awhile to pull this picture together to actually make it look somewhat real, and then i went and added myself into it and ruined all my hard work. this is the version without me photoshopped into it; that one won't be shown until i can find a easier version of myself to paste into it.
