Board Book Images!

These were some sample ideas of kids books pages ranging for ages 0-3.

My teacher really didn't like the third one. (ha!)

 "P" is for Parrot

 "1, 2, 3"

 "U" is for Unicorn

My second collage..

came out way better than my first in my opinion!

I really like this. It took a long time to put together, but I'm happy I did it!

Eric Carle style Collage Owl

This was reated for my Children's book class. We had to create a collage like Eric Carle (the creator of The Very Hungry Caterpillar) does for his books. It was fun! I'm going to do something more fantasy and brightly colored on the next one.

Used: tracing paper, colored pencil, markers, acrylic paint, scissors, and glue.

Seahorse Othographic Worksheet

I am taking a Wildlife Ill. class, we must research and illustrate a new creature each week. This week I chose to do a Potbelly Seahorse. :)

 How fun! :)

Animal Antomy

I took an animal anatomy class last semester and never went through my 300 or so drawings. Here are just a few to start.

A woman brought in her greyhounds, they are really cute. Their faces straight on are the silliest things ever.

We went to the Oakland Zoo in my animal anatomy class, it was really fun and I got some great sketches! Sorry for the watermark, people love to steal art.

Funny story, the giraffes and antelope were in the same enclosure. Well I caught a giraffe kicking one out of its way, like full on kick. Dang, right?

Theses are all sketched in about 20 mins or less.

Fluttershy

Yes, I watch My Little Pony, don't think you'll like it? Just give it a chance.

 I drew this at an arts and crafts fair. Drawn with prismacolors and cleaned up with photoshop.

Mlp and Fluttershy belong to Hasbro/the Hub/Lauren Faust.

Some of my Inspirations

As of right now, these are some of of the artists that I highly look up to. The list could probably be around 100 people, but I'm really starting to focus on animal anatomy, story telling, and traditional media, and these three guys have/ had this down pat! 

I would really love to see who my friends and inspirations are inspired by, that's often how you find some new and really amazing artists!
