Catching Up!

Hi!

Guess what!

I haven't posted in this blog in like four months! It's mostly okay, though, because I've been extremely busy. Last semester was full of lots of artwork that I didn't actually post in here because I was far too busy trying to make the deadlines and prepare for my specialization review. But, you may be pleased to know, I have passed spec review and am ready for my next semester! It's very exciting.

So now you may be wondering what on earth I've been working on for the past few months! Well, that's what I'm going to be posting in here for the next few days (I hope XD)! I'll mainly be focusing on my projects from my Intro. to Illustration class, but I may throw in a few from figure drawing, and I might toss in one or two personal projects, as well. XD Anyways, first project!

For this project, I had to draw a self-portrait as Zorro four times. One had to be realistic (top left), one more "cartoony" (top right), one symbolic (bottom left), and one had to include text in some form or fashion (bottom right). It was immensely fun, and I'm pretty happy with the way it came out, though some areas still need work, certainly. Anyways, let me know what you think!

Also, I'm beginning work on a series of new projects for an illustration show at my school. The topic is "metaphors and puns," and I've basically got to illustrate just that--a bunch of metaphors and puns. XD It should be fun; I've been tossing some ideas around in my head for the past few days. I'm having trouble thinking of one that I really like so far, though, so here's hoping I come up with something soon! I hope to get some work done on those this week!

Anyways, I think I'm going to try to stick with updating this blog a little more often. I may not be able to do it every day, but I'm hoping to update at least once a week or something, with some kind of progress on my artwork. XD
