Autobiography in Five Short Chapters Artist Book

My brother recently moved out for a job in Cambridge, for a going away present I made him a hardcover book with one of my favorite stories. I did so by making marbled paper, citrasolv transferring the text, and using a pamphlet style bind. Here is a picture of each page going. I apologize for the poor quality photos.

This post is long overdue but this is the second draft of the animal poster

Look Beyond Society's Expectations of Beauty

Digital mock up of a 24"x 36" analog poster. 

The two wolves in the poster are Maned Wolves. They have extremely long legs which help them see above tall grass to hunt. In this poster the grass is society's unrealistic beauty expectations. 

I am going to go back and edit this poster, clean up the ribbon, and change up the ears. 

Photo Collage

A photo collage I put together. Probably one of my favorite ones I have made so far. For my printmaking class our final is to make three editions of a book. This is one page that will be in the book. I plan to citrasolv this onto paper and silkscreen over it. 

I Can Taste Summer

Summer is so close, this semester is killing me and break is one month away. The final projects for my classes should be fun and I am aiming to end the year on a good note. Work produced from this point on should be great. What I plan to put most my energy in is silk screening, sculpture, and this giant piece of a maned wolf. Anything I make I will post.

Making art all the time is nice and all but I would really like the time to make more personal art. It kills me that I have a canvas calling my name, but I have school work that demands more attention. Summer is so close... 3 months of relaxation and personal painting and producing. I have some big plans. Lots of art and possibly travel involved. Going to be networking and deep in the galley scene. Art art art.

Trial Silk Screens

 Here are some silk screens I've been working on. Done in two layers. These are the first silk screens I have ever made. They are not the best, but I see where I went wrong. Next go around I plan to approach the layering process differently. These are too flat and quite frankly very awkward. For the most part these were just for fun and I mainly was experimenting with the material, process, and different acrylic inks.

Much Better

The following contains hilarious photos of Royal Baby Prince George replaced by photos of food.
Here are some of my favorite photos.

I guess being pregnant does make you crave everything.. huh I wonder if the baby has been born yet?

Since Kate quit drinking while pregnant with Prince George she can resume with her regular diet of drinking.

Of tea guys.. (can't have caffeine while pregnant) 

HAH JUST KIDDING! 

meet Jack.

HOT TODDYS GO ROUND FOR EVERYONE meet her good friend Jack.

I am just kidding and really really hope that Kate isn't an alcoholic (yet). 

Hehehe.
