The tree is made out of air dry clay, and paper towel, and then was painted with a light watercolor wash. I then hot glued the branches and the aluminum wire. I then glued the tree to a cardboard base. Then I took my black hot glue sticks and dripped the glue all around the tree from the branches and wire. This piece I made because I wanted to make a tree and test out dripping hot glue. Overall I think it was a success and a great new technique.
An acrylic painting on canvas of a skull on top of another skull. The skull on top is from observation of the under part of the cattle head. This piece was a piece I had done previously with just one skull. I then went back to it and reworked the piece by adding another skull, creating more dimension with the black background, and also adding more dimension to the red flowers.
I sculpted a hand using my hand as a reference out of an aluminum foil base and sculpy outer shell. I then backed the hand so the synthetic clay, sculpy, could harden. I then airbrushed the hand and stuck it into the fire place. I created this piece to start to understand the human body and experiment with the airbrush machine.
A charcoal drawing done during a nude figure drawing session. About an hour and 45 minute sitting.
Sculpted out of two pieces of green sculpting foam glued together. The piece is intended to have an organic and nature inspired look. I formed the foam by sculpting it with my finger and an exacto blade.

I started off with a block of Bulsa wood that I then carved with rasps and knives to form a human and nature inspired piece. I then used wood varnish to paint the piece. I call it space ship because it reminds me of a space ship you would see from star wars or some alien movie.
A charcoal drawing done during a nude figure drawing session. It was about a 6 week course I took to better my observational skills, and technique of drawing the human form.
A painted still life done in water colors of bottles to show my ability of observation and reflective skills.
I went through a little bit of an alien phase and wanted to create something out of the ordinary. So I cut a square piece of canvas, gessoed it so the canvas could harden, folded it into the shape of a fortune teller and then airbrushed an alien design on the front. I glued all the sides together so it can maintain its shape, so it is not a functioning fortune.
