Drawings, 2007.

Some drawings I did in the fall of 2007. Junior year had just started and I had no idea what to do for my own work now that it came down to it. I just started doing super-detailed but unfinished drawings of stuff lying around in my studio, probably a sign that my own frustration was eating me alive. These are pretty tiny, about 2-3 inches across. I decided to get rid of the grain and color of the paper upon scanning them because I wanted them to function on the computer screen the same way they do physically. Not sure if that was the best decision.





Old Photos, part 2

This is a series of b/w medium format photos I did. I took advantage of b/w film's general lenience towards proper exposure and used the flat plane of the front of the medium format camera in order to press it against the glass of storefronts at night. Being able to take photos at night while doing painting and design work during the day allowed me to crank out alot of work for every class once finals came around (didn't leave time for sleep, unfortunately). I like these because I like work in series and because there was at least some cohesion.
