A personal doodle today! Wanted to mess with the marker tool in PaintTool SAI, a program I haven't used in a long time! I'm pretty happy with this, though I know my anatomy still needs work.

This week in art school: Finally working in Illustrator! (We're not having a discussion about free alternative software here. I'm FULLY aware of the whole situation with Adobe. It is a requirement of the class, so I am powerless.) Just a simple figure/ground exercise!

At the instruction of my instructor, I made some changes to my #collage. I'm not sure if this is better or worse, but I'm calling it done.

This week we did one last traditional collage. Not usually my medium of choice, but very fun to explore. We were supposed to be using Gestalt principles in this piece, but I'm not sure I did (was more worried about making an interesting collage). Might have to redo this assignment. Thoughts? 9x12"

“I’m doing good things,” I tell myself as I delete the military service of a dead woman. “I’m still a good person.”

Well, that was last term. So far, this term: collage! Simple collage with only black, white, and gray paper. I like what I came up with! Inspired by #kingdomcomedeliverance #kcd ! #artschool #collage #symmetry #asymmetry

First post here! Wanted to share some of what I've been up to in #artschool. I want to point out, though, that I am 29, not 18. First up: Some bottles! We had to use 4 identical objects and make radical change to 3 of them.
