Anne Hathaway

Yah, I need to learn how to make better caricatures.  But this is a start

Jenna and Waverly :)

Oh, you know, my room mates.  I just can't stop drawing their beautiful faces <3

In Progress Class Work



In-progress class project, influenced by illustration and geometric abstraction.  People would probably never buy this massive doodle but it sure is fun to make.

Octagons

Here is a drawing I did of octagons.  I often think about the beautiful grid of the octagon and how, though relatively simple, it looks so intricate because we are not used to seeing it. To me, the octagon (being representational of the spider) symbolizes the divine nature, the web of fate, and female power.  This is why I love incorporating this symbol into my narratives.

Grandma

My Grandma was a single mother of four fabulous people, and I always have held her in awe because of this.  This was made in Adobe Illustrator, using a wacom tablet.

Family

In one of my classes, we were talking about the concept of the nest.  This is a place that you find yourself coming back to over and over because of the familiarity.  Sometimes this is place of safety.  However, sometimes you keep on coming back because you know no other way.  I am lucky that my parent's house is a place I feel safe.  When I think of my nest, I think of walking into the front door and there are my brothers and my mom coming to greet me after we've been separated for a while.

Although this piece is a step forward for me in perspective and background, I struggled with anatomy.  Any pointers?
