Throwback post

oh hey blogger!

Senior year has been busy! I've been in the labs almost every night and my bed times are ridiculous. It's all good though. Anyway, I feel like I have to update last year's stuff before I can update new work. I am running on Cuban time so I apologize for the lateness. I'll start with figure paintings from junior year. I had the class for a whole year with Hodges Soileau who was an amazing teacher. He would point out things I didn't see, and really helped me understand shapes, value and color, even though I still have value issues. It was a fun class. These are pretty much in chronological order so enjoy :)

I thought this would be safer in case children were around... but watch out for the next one!


mr. boner has a tendency to stare down girls in the class with an erection. I was unfortunate enough to get a spot right in front -_-


my favorite part of this piece is her booty.


this chick played a guitar with no strings! It's not like I forgot to paint them in or anything...






this guy was in a weird position that he couldn't hold for more then 5 minutes at a time before shaking and having to rest. I felt bad, but it was a cool pose.




I was taking art history at the time, so maybe I was influenced by the baroque period? Old school chick.

Anyway, I had fun in painting class and hope to continue with oil when I have time.
