I'm having so much fun with the characters for my current project! Can't believe it's the last project of my senior year!

The Box of Good and Evil

 These are the final character designs from my latest class project! We were assigned either a box of good or evil, and around that prompt I designed a story of problematic teenage gyspsy romance.

I just started my last ever semester of school! It's already super busy, I know it's gonna be a great one!

Marcovaldo

For my final project this semester, we designed characters and environments based on a short story from the Marcovaldo collection in the style of an assigned artist. My project is based on "The City Lost in the Snow" inspired by the style of Harry Clarke. These are my final pieces, I really enjoyed this project and absolutely can't believe I only have one semester left of school!! Ahh!

Inktober 2

Better late than never, this last Inktober spread is one of my favorites of the month!

I was Tina Belcher for Halloween this year, so naturally day 31 had to be a drawing of her.

Inktober Part 1

I've been having a lot of fun doing the Inktober challenge this month! I've decided to do a couple big posts instead of daily ones. Here is the first half, days 1-16 - more coming soon!

Crew of You

I've been meaning to revisit my Crew of You assignment from last semester for a while, and today I finally took some time for it! Color is still in the works, but I'm also digging this line art version.

This Side of Paradise

A friend of mine recently recommended that I read This Side of Paradise by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The characters were so fantastic I decided to work on designs for some of them, so here are some sketches of Amory Blaine and two of his lady loves, Rosalind and Eleanor! More on this to come!

Robin Hood

This semester I was in an advanced modeling class, and for our final project we were able to model anything that we wanted! I decided to model the Robin Hood character I designed in my visual development class last semester.

Original character design

The original Robin Hood assignment was to design a character for a 3D film, so I thought it would be a fun challenge to actually make the character in 3D. It was so cool to see my own character actually realized in 3D!

Finally, the most exciting part of this whole project is that I was able to get my model 3D printed! This was such an exciting process and I'm glad I had the opportunity to model my own character, and I absolutely love the final print!

Crew of You

Some Crew of You character doodles. Final illustration coming soon!

Holden

I find that my list of books to read is always growing simply because I love re-reading old favorites too much. I'm currently revisiting The Catcher in the Rye, my absolute favorite.

"Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be. I know it's crazy."

Robin Hood

These are my character designs for my visual development class final project this semester, Robin Hood set in the California Gold Rush!

Mini Sub

  

My visual development class just finished our "Animal Mini Sub" project in which we designed two characters - a captain and first mate - and the mini submarine they would pilot. I picked koalas for my animal. It was so much fun!

Kolkata Food Vendor

Jorogumo

 

Food Cart

My visual development class was assigned to design an animal character with a food cart. Here is Oscar the desert-dwelling coyote and his handmade mobile water cart!

Airmail: Character Designs

Here are some of my character designs for the short film I'm currently working on, entitled Airmail:

Six-year-old Oliver is our intrepid main character, changing the world one letter at a time!

A line up of the Stevens family, including Oliver's pet bird Hermes of course!
