sharp edges

: proceed with caution
i have many things lurking around the mud pile that is my brain. this is a piece of that. they are things that cut me. i make them softer so you all can see.

i cant help the feeling of ripping sometimes. or maybe its melting. whatever the case this one is borrowed from another girls heart but with my hand.

dedicated to a love of many years. about osmosis and other convergences. i have absorbed so much and yet there is much more.

nooooooooooo more tears. please. about time to leave this one behind and forget superstitions.

self portrait.

yesterday in the square there was a boy i offered a banana. he said he had no space for that but money was his search after. i mentally broke him into lines and dots. i wish i hadn't done so. he didn't do me any harm.

there are more to come i'm sure. my stupor has yet to fade.

etsy...and done

my eyes hurt from staring at a compute screen for way too long.
just added an etsy thinger to the side. trying to get rid of paintings and stacks of bound notebooks lying around. i guess ill call it summer cleaning.

the small parts of being

self portraits are a bitch. sometimes i would rather focus on my freckles. they at least stay still.

too close to home

this piece is from my figure drawing class a couple of semesters ago. it was awkward. me and the model had similar haircuts. i couldn't help but see my self, even if our body types are nothing alike. so i decided to steal her gaze.

Portfolio 2

Another series of faces but these ones are an old set from my first

year of art school.

Based on three ladies i was rather close to, and still am in some cases.

I asked each girl for a self portrait, favorite color scheme, and what

their power animal is.

These are the results. (I drew them using colored pencil and pastels.)

portfolio part 1

i have been buisy for a while but new stuff is on its way. below are some of my more recent and/or favorites.

Control


a linoleum print combined with letterpress. this is mostly about human existence and design. I did this in my second year letterpress class.

the benign lie


gouache and graphite. this painting was my conclusive extension of extension of another series called familiar tragedies. all are inspired by your tales and my own. this particular one is about deceipt and the inevitable consumption of our beings as a result of vanity. i know... super uplifting.




still life

this is where it all started, in my first year of art school. i only really knew about lines and more lines. when im not drawing people im drawing shoes.

more to come. im in the process of moving and catching up on side projects.
