Rejection Hurts

So today we had due a 8" x 10" (or close) water color of one of our Facebook profile pictures. I was kinda excited for this because I thought it would go well, as you can see it did do quite that. I'm not too disappointed with it but Rusty still rejected it because the face was too overworked, which I can see. I will try and fix it, if not I will have to redo it. Here it is for now though.

Surprise, More Watercolors

Here are 10 more watercolors. Rusty wanted 5 with line art on top of a color wash and 5 with color wash over line art. I was a little pressed for time with these so I don't think any of them really turned out except for one or two. I need to sit down and just figure this watercolor out, but I'm just playing catch up at the moment so that really isn't possible. I do miss projects where I got to sit down and think about what I wanted to do and how to do it. Until then, here are 10 more lackluster watercolors.

Check out this Bullet

Here is a watercolor I did in class today. It is of a bullet because that is what I had a picture of and it seemed easier. If you would like to think it represents the war on terror or something like that too then go ahead, that's cool too. It turned out decent I feel. Composition isn't there because I plan to crop it and what not. Rusty helped me with this one so that might have something to do with it.


Face Time

So I have really been slacking on this whole blogging thing. It probably has something to do with the whole watercolor thing. I'm still not good at it. But since I can't seem to blog on time all my posts will be out of order, sorry Rusty. Here are 5 people, I cant do watercolor let alone do people. For my references I just Facebook creeped on people, its nice to hace a reason to do it. So here they are.



Sorry about those creepy eyes

More Watercolor

Here are 10 more watercolors. These had to be of landscapes and had to use color schemes. I tried to get looser with these than the last ones. A lot of them didn't work, but a couple turned out decent. You be the judge. Still not as confident with watercolor as line art.











Been Slacking

So we have moved on to watercolors now, and I have been slacking on my posting. I missed a day of class so my posting order will be a little messed up. These 10 watercolors are technically the second round and they had to be of landscapes. The first round of any subject matter will be posted later. I really am not a fan of watercolor, I have a lot less experience with it than line art, so these paintings are pretty poor. Not a fan but got to get them done.

Dos Más


There was a little change up in Rusty's plan of attack. This time we had to do 2 line drawings at 8 1/2" x 10". One had to be a product illustration and one had to something recognizable to Truman. I did my watch and the bell tower by the library. We then had to get them approved in class. Luckily I was able to get them approved after a couple changes and have them printed for Monday. These took my awhile, long enough that I had to stop doing other class homework to get them done, but oh well I guess. I think they turned out decent.

10 More Line Drawings

These posts are pretty repetitive  by now. Surprise Surprise, here are 10 more line art drawings. Same photo done in 10 different styles. I have lots of tractor pics so here is another tractor. Some of these aren't awful, so that is something I guess.










And of course the mandatory bonus tablet drawing. I really need to practice with this tablet because I am not too great at it right now. Maybe if I didn't have so many line drawings to do every night I could...
