In-progress character studies

Trying to get some character design in my portfolio... still rough sketches.

Background art for Songlines

Some backgrounds I did for a game called "Songlines" in the USC Interactive Media Studies program. Inspired by aboriginal art.

Figure and Head drawing

Head drawings are from Glen Orbik's Head Drawing Class, which I'm taking at 3Kicks studio. Glen is really awesome! :) I still have a funny habit of making some of the head drawings look like me...
The head drawing of the guy in glasses was a study I did on my own with my boyfriend graciously posing for me. It seems to be better than the ones I did in class...

Figure drawing

Projects from last semester of college

I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree a few months ago from USC and these were the two art projects that stood out most to me from last semester.


This is a large oil pastel drawing (about 26" x 57") and it's a scene from an imaginary Maid Cafe in typical Akihabara fashion. I made up all the characters and some of them ended up having names in my head because it took so long to finish this piece...







This was a project where I painted a life-size person on cardboard and made clothes and a different face for it in paper-doll fashion. My class was having fun with this one... :)

Recent Digital Work

Here's some scenes I made for the opening animation of a game I'm working on at USC called Quicksilver.

Color studies

These are oil paintings from last summer from when I took Bill Perkin's Color Theory bootcamp. It was from that class that I learned how to use color; I highly recommend it! These were all 1-hour paintings... we did about 6-7 a day.

Digital figures from class

Oh dear... sorry for the hiatus. I haven't been figure drawing regularly in the past year but here are some digital figure drawings I did recently.
