Coffee cups
Heh, I almost forgot about these. Might as well share!
I'm a photographer now. What do you think of my pics? be honest.
no?
Ok, so they're not art. But they were good practice. I did these as a 3D lighting exercise during my final month at Ringling. There's a fake cup in both of them, in case you couldn't tell (hopefully). Here are the original photos:
Step-by-step, for the curious (used Maya, Renderman, Nuke):
cheers!

Quick Hack for Epipheo
So I spent the last week hanging out in Ohio with the cool people of Epipheo. I worked on this short project-- a "quick hack," a short animatic that offers a friendly suggestion for making life a little bit easier or more fun. They provided the script, I drew it. I also explored what it might look like as a finished piece.
It was a great experience, and I look forward to doing more projects with them.
Carpe viam!

Little Red Monster (color)
Yep... I did it again.
Such a fangirl!
Drawing by Sandro Cleuzo, color by me. No color thumbnails this time, because I wanted to do it quickly and I knew from the get-go that I wanted him to be red (the blue lips came later, though)

"Nina"- Emperor's New Groove Color Practice
Back again with another color test!
It's another Sandro Cleuzo drawing, this time of an unused character from The Emperor's New Groove, named Nina.
She was hard. Girls are hard. Metal is hard. I could probably keep fiddling with it, but it's time to move on.
Part of the reason I find girls harder to paint is that people tend to use so few lines to define their features-- because, draw too many lines and they look aged, unhealthy, or just unappealing. But what that means is that the three-dimensionality of many forms is largely left up to the imagination...
For example, here's a little behind-the-scenes view of one of the early ways I interpreted her face (on the right). It wasn't working for me, and I'm glad I pushed forward.
Cheers.

Home on the Range... Color practice!
I wanted to do some coloring practice... I've never seen Disney's Home on the Range, but as I was browsing the Living Lines Library, this design caught my eye, and I thought it would be fun to render!
The original drawing is by Sandro Cleuzo, whose work is insanely appealing and makes me want to do more of these.
Cheers
