Brass Day: Poster Design

Here is a recent poster I designed for Towson University. It was awarded a Graphic Design USA, 2012 American Inhouse Design Award and a Graphic Design USA, 2012 American Graphic Design Award.

Peter & Max

As I mentioned in a previous post, I've been taking an oil painting class. This painting was done for the class final. The project's objective was to paint a picture based on a photo montage. I created the faces out of (about) 15 different faces. I then decided to make it a homage to a 1960s artist - Peter Max. Hence, the title.

Illustration Friday: Jump

Oh my goodness it has been a while since I last did an Illustration Friday piece. This was a real quick doodle done in Photoshop.>

New painting

This Spring I decided to take my first oil painting class. I've painted before in acrylics and gouache, but never in oils. Something about how slowly the paint dries always intimidated me. Also, I don't usually work "realistically", but my years of drawing seem to have paid off. I've been pleasantly surprised by the results; and, think that I've fallen in love with this medium!

Better blogging

It's definitely been a while since I last posted an entry. I started a new job and after spending all day in front of a computer...my laptop stays pretty quiet at night. I've been doing more traditional art after hours. Now that I have the blogger app on my phone, it will definitely be easier to post a quick entry!
