Model Class

I've been enjoying these open studios. They allow for a calm, no stress environment... something that is hard to find in my life sometimes.

Model Class

I finally got around to taking a model class at the Art League of Long Island this week. Super excited about it because it was the first time I had been to the new building! The model was wonderful and the people in the class were mellow and easy going... made the experience very enjoyable. I hope to get to a few more next week before school starts up again.

Little Red

In my mentor class this past semester, we were given the freedom to design our own project. My theme - What would happen if you mixed crime dramas with classic fairytales?

My first design came out like this:




After some minor changes and alterations it turned into this:





Some of the warmth from the first one got lost but I liked the design of the second one better. I think that I could easily paint a third one...

Empty Nest

"Empty Nest"


After weeks and weeks... I FINALLY finished this painting. At first I wasn't into the project but it grew on me. I really enjoyed using my mom as a model and I think that overall it came out very well. I'm starting to absolutely love oil painting... I need to do more!

Man's Best Friend

"Yesterday I was a dog. Today I'm a dog. Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There's so little hope for advancement." -Snoopy









"Maggie"

I'm pretty sure my favorite time of the day is when she curls up at the foot of my bed and FINALLY stops moving. Of my two dogs, she has way to much energy to handle sometimes. (I love them just the same.)

Wonderfulness

I don't have anything to post currently but I just saw Where the Wild Things Are yesterday and fell in love with everything that movie had to offer. Go see it. The entire movie is one big, art piece.

Until next time...I leave you with this:

Ridin' the train and such.
