SOPA & PIPA

Both SOPA and PIPA are bills threatening the first amendment. They'll not only create internet censorship, but they'll also break the functionality of the internet itself... meaning it'll be unstable.

Please sign this petition (against SOPA/PIPA) and call your senators asking them to vote no on PIPA.


There is also some very useful information on the Wikipedia overlay at the moment: Here.

Ommetaphobia or Ommatophobia

Fear of Eyes. He's afraid of them so he tears them out to throw them. A simple picture and a more detailed view of the sculpture/ figurine.

Also from my phobias and obsessions class.

In the future, when it's warmer, I plan on taking a photo of this little guy outside in a more natural setting.

After the crit the teacher mentioned it reminded him of Red Nose Studio, and I assure you that was completely unintentional. In my more rough sketches I usually draw noses as triangles and wanted his body to be an exaggeration of a really rough sketch you might see in my sketch book, but eh... I dunno. Any resemblance was completely by accident.

Sketch Dump

 Some old, some new. From my sketchbook.
I'm in a drawing rut and have mostly been pretty unhappy with what I've been doing the past couple weeks.

Feet

I drew some feet the other day. Pretty pleased, actually.

Done with pencil, micron pen and prismacolor markers.

In the future I'll make all my art posts from the same day in one blog

Yeah, I didn't think this out too well.

Another from my obsessions and phobias class. Just experimenting...
Thoughts?

Sailor Jerry Mermaids

Also for my Obsessions and Phobias class. This was for an obsession with tattoos. I wanted to reference Sailor jerry tattoos and how mermaids were a typical motif, and then play on those references so that it was the mermaids who had the tattoos.

I need practice doing water for future work. Suggestions?

Anthrophobia and Botanophobia

I did this for my Phobias and obsessions class. I have other stuff I still need to post. I just finished a tattoo commission the other day, updated the coding on my portfolio website and need to build a website for my friend. I also have 20 hours of class this weekend, papers to write and a project. I really never can get a break. This summer maybe?

Crit please?
By the way, is it better to post one thing at a time or just unload several things all at once?
