Class Ilustration : childhood trauma

So back in the day when i was a cute, helpless, innocent little child, my mom and older sister decided to send me as into a lake to test for leeches. Turns out there was.

Class Illustration - "B" is for...

Bellydancing.

Class Illustration : Phobia

yep. spiders. hate the evil bloodsucking little creatures.

Class Illustration : Retro

So during my extensive research, I found that woodland animals seem to be popular retro subjects ;)

Weekly Illustration - Gluttony

If all the cookies we eat ever affects these girls at all, which is doubtful, they might look like this...only more like themselves (it's Felicia, Janet & Donna). ;)

Weekly Illustration #5 : HALLOWEEN!!!!!! YAY!!!

Just a reminder about last year Sean. :)

and because fat halloween-candy-sean is almost identical to the voodoo queen he loves so much, a bonus drawing, wheeee!!!

Class Illustration #6 - "Before & After"

So, if anyone isn't already familiar with the whole geoduck story, in short, Meghan decided she wanted a pet geoduck last year after seeing how cute they were in a picture I showed her (a geoduck is a type of clam that bears a ridiculous resemblance to part of the male anatomy), so when I went back to Kyuquot for the summer, I got one off of the geoduckers (the guys who dive for the geoducks)and decided that it would be ok if I just sunk it off my dock for the remainder of the summer in a 5 gallon bucket/crate combo to keep it safe from the evil little sea otters. Anyway, as it turns out, not a good idea. I pulled the poor little guy up 8 weeks later and I'm pretty sure he had acquired some kind of skin disease, not to mention parasites, barnacles growing OUT OF HIS BODY, algae growths and looking pretty sad all around... So here is the before and after illustration of the poor little geoduck...I let him go by the way, so now he's probably going to spread his skin disease to all the healthy geoducks, deplete the geoduck population, put the geoduckers out of work, the Asian market is going to collapse and then there is going to be a huge war and we're all going to die because Meghan wanted an exotic pet. So, in short...blame meghan... :)

After

Weekly Illustration #5 : Horrible Illustration

Actually the topic was Socially Awkward. Anyway, it is supposed to be the parents arriving in Vancouver F.O.K (Fresh Out of Kyuquot). I would like to be the first to point out that my mom looks A. nothing like her, B. a little kid, C. Definitely not frazzled enough. And the Background has no perspective and Sid told me it was a huge cop out, and basically I am going to remove this from my blog after today...but I won't remember, so maybe tomorrow. There IS a guest geoduck appearance in it but even that isn't going to save this one. Sigh.

Cam has a pair of giant fuzzy slippers. I think they might even have bears or something on them...eyes or a nose maybe. Anyway, I saw him wearing them in the hallway today and it was too funny with the Cam hair and everything so I had to draw it. Ummm, apparently all the first years think Cam's name is Brian for some reason. Someone should tell them they are wrong.

Weekly Assignment #4 - Frustration

No matter how high little Lauren jumped, no one noticed she was there. Life is hard on pygmies...and animation students enrolled in 2 year animation programs instead of degree programs. :)

Weekly Illustration #3 - Animal Characture of a Classmate

This is the first one I did, but except for the fact that it is a skunk (which kind of gives it away), you can't really tell who it is from the drawing.

Yeah, so, I learned something from this assignment, I always thought that it was Preying Mantis, but it is actually Praying Mantis. Umm, this doesn't affect the fact that the classmate is definitely more of a Preying Mantis...
:)

triplets of belleville character - class illustration

sigh.

santa monica

I don't know why, but bedouin soundclash always makes me want to draw...it doesn't really have anything to do with the song, but it reminds me of it so i like it...for the moment.

Ancient

Ummm, so, this is the ancient voodoo queen Me-ghan (subtlety is not one of my strong points). She eats peoples souls...lots of them...and it's not a widely known fact, but souls are very high in saturated fats.

My stylus pen is M.I.A, so I tried to colour it using my mouse...I may have to illustrate that occasion at some point...unfortunately my mouse was K.I.A...

Laura

I finally made it to see my roommate sing last night, it was awesome...unfortunately the drawing isn't but it was really dark and there was alcohol involved :)

Pretty sure I hate 3D

Yep.
And no, I am not left handed.

drawing for fun?

Cat, I was inspired by your pigtails,
they are so cute!

Kyuquot Chronicles II

I wanted to post the geoduck pics taken after it's 3 month confinement in a bucket off of my dock, but I guess they didn't make it onto the cd, I'll get those, until then, here are some of the prettier sort of pictures from KY.

Aktis Island...

Sunset from the West Entrance...

Trout Fishing up McKay's Cove

Outside Beach...

The sunset I was going to paddle away into instead of coming back to Van.

i will probably regret this

i felt guilty about not posting any drawings all summer, but I'm pretty sure these sketches will be sufficient evidence of why i haven't.

ummm, I was going to post this on our class blog for an "unusual advertisements" topic, but I was a month late for that week and felt stupid...plus I finished it and decided it really wasn't ugly enough...jason could kick my ass.

umm, this one was a sketch of one of the many mechanics after one of the many vehicle breakdowns on my way into kyuquot. whee.


umm, i just liked this one...


exotic kyuquot wildlife...


and I'm being cheap with this one, it was another weekly topic (slugs) for the class blog, but whatever.



Kyuquot photos coming soon. The excitement is almost overwhelming.

Kyuquot Chronicles I

Sooo, since I am terrible at posting drawings, I'm just going to use this blog to chronicle the many adventures I'm having in Kyuquot. Adventure #1 : Aquiring Meghan's rare and beautiful exotic pet: the Geoduck (goo-ee-duck). I'm sure Meg would love name suggestions. I am really hoping he survives till the end of the summer, but we'll see.

i'll drink to that

Alright Sid, this first post is dedicated to you. Cheers. Oh right, and posting work... I'll get right on that. Ha ha ha ha.
