Thesis!

Here's some more photos of my thesis pieces on my Flickr account!!

Yey, Thesis!! Thesis was so much fun and it feels so good to be a Ringling alum. I'm excited to start working on tons of personal projects as I seek out some more opportunities elsewhere. I will be moving up to Asheville NC with my friend Felicia. There's talk of a possible internship on Nantucket for the summer so that's another possibility..

..Most of these thesis pieces will be up for sale on my etsy soon! Get excited to build your own paper dolls! <3

Art show!

My very first art booth ever! <3 It was so much fun and I met so many amazing people!! Can't wait for my next one. For now, i'll focus on thesis. <3

and Another!

I'm a machine right now and I can't stop creating!


And its 7am, have to leave for class in a bit. Completely lost track of time painting another painting:




..I think I may be a painting addict. Yikes!

Sailor Boy!

He was a sailor boy, she said see ya later boy!

.....kidding.

Square One is this Saturday and i'll hopefully be making bank! haha, I definitely need it to help pay for my thesis set up.. : /

After Saturday I'll devote every moment to thesis. Sorry other classes, you'll have to take the back seat.

Still working on Thesis!

I need to post more.. I'll be mass producing a ton of stuff for an upcoming show, so I'll post the end result of my month of all-nighters!

For now, a fisherman riding a squirrel:

And also; I like to paint on random pieces of wood [or whatever I can find honestly]

In North Carolina!

I'm currently in Asheville, North Carolina for spring break and i'm surrounded by crafty people and stores full of handmade goods. It's pretty inspiring! Working on tons of new stuff for that art sale in April and also tons of school work as well [mostly thesis and book arts]. So look forward to a new post full of these new creations.

For now, some older pieces, recently re-shot:




And a better photograph of my little monster from the piece that got into Society.



Hope everyone's having a lovely March so far! It's only the 6th but mine's going stupendously. <3

Thesis!

My first little post about thesis. This is a bear. He's a circus bear. He is cute and jointed so he can move unlike other paper bears. We love him!

Illest of Ill piece!

Finally got my Illest of Illustration piece scanned!
Say Hello to Lil Red!

For your viewing pleasure!

We made some plush pillows today at work! We used hot glue, fabric, and tons of little accessories. Yay, crafty days!



I'll get some more stuff up here soon. I'm about to vacation to North Carolina to visit a dear dear friend, Felicia. I'll ideally have tons of stuff to show when I get back!

Here's another plush I had made for a friend awhile back, just now got some photos:



Going to make a ton more of these for Square One at the Ritz in Ybor in mid-april. Also more for Etsy!

A girl, a snake, a bear, and some randoms.

<3 She very soon realized that today may have not been the best day to wear her new mouse suit... <3



A cute little drawing I just found while piling up some things to burn from in my closet [ha!].



And a little something to share with hopes that everyone had a lovely valentine's day!

Society of Illustrators!

I got a piece into Society of Illustrators! I'm honestly so excited and honored.. Congratulations to all the other students nationwide who made it in! There's such a variety of work in the winning entries and i'm really impressed with everyone. Ringling got 19 pieces in as well which is definitely awesome!

This is the baby that made it:
