paintings

These are a few paintings I did last quarter.

The first two below are from one series and are meant to be viewed side-to-side horizontally.

18" x 48" gouache and acrylic on bristol paper

Portrait of an Android Puppy:

32"x48" oil on canvas

And here's something I did two quarters ago (click for a larger image):

Acrylic on canvas

**Edit: I realize none of these paintings have my signature on them. Part of the reason I hesitate/forget to sign, is because I seldom get the feeling that a painting is "done". I constantly feel the need to add, to strip away, to cover, or to destroy, and that's a weakness of mine. Also, because most of these are done in art class and everyone in my classes don't seem to sign their works. During crit we all know who's who anyway and signing seems a little snobby. Whatever, I'll try to be better about that. :)

starting something new.

I received my first art commission the other day, and after much reflection on what precisely an economics major could do with her somewhat closeted passion for art, I decided to start an art blog with the intention that it should be motivating and fun. I've been meaning to make a website for sometime now, so this is a small step in that direction.
