Springshow
The Springshow opening night was yesterday and I got in 7 pieces. I also won the Barbara Bradley Appreciator Award, which I'm very happy about.

Last CF3 class
Last day drawings in Clothed Figure Drawing 3... Good times. I think I've grown a bit in this class. My direct-drawing technique is a little better. I was in a more of a painterly mood this day, as you can maybe tell...

Last Illustrations
Hey guys, last week of school! Finals went well and I got some pieces into the Springshow, but I don't know which ones. I submitted a lot...
Here are my last two assignments for Illustration 2: Watercolor. Watercolor is much more diverse than I expected, but I'm not sure I'll be using it much in the future.. we'll see. The theme was a book illustration, both cover and interior. I chose a novel by Jim Butcher called Turn Coat in the Dresden Files series. It's a Mystery-Detective-Urban-Fantasy book, I love it.
This first one is actually our final, but we were running out of time in class so we had to finish this one and the other one at the same time, so I went for a very simple design that I could paint fairly fast :P Here's my process:
Super messy and fast sketches, playing with ideas and composition.
We painted our color rough in class, trying to figure out how my final's gonna look like... I actually like the colors here way better than in my final, I messed up the purple..
And then the final!
This is the interior illustration, a two-page spread, with space for text.
Messy sketches. I picked a passage from the book which reads:
"It screamed again, the sound deeper-chested than before, more resonant. I raised my staff, anger and terror and determination surging down into the wooden tool, and shouted, "Forzare!"
My color rough
And final!
Extra bonus: This is how my final for Adv. Perspective looks like, all the drawings mounted on two big boards for presentation.
