figure sculpture studies

Some of the warm-up drawings done for the same class as the sculptures in the previous entry. Not surprisingly, the sculpture room was not equipped with easels and I, being the genius that I am, decided to get the largest pad of newsprint that I could find; which resulted in horribly stretched out figures. These are some of the least wonked out ones. Poses ranged from 1-5 minutes.

I had to make a portfolio site for a class and figured I might as well make something that I'd actually use. I even designed my business card AND letterhead. Like a professional.

Two more weeks left of the semester; let the stress-fest begin! On the off-chance that I make it out alive, be prepared for an update on all the gesture drawings from my sculpture class I've yet to post.

Sculpture Studies

After spending the last two years desperately avoiding my 3D studio requirements for MAT, I've finally had to suck it up and do it now that graduation is only two semesters away (oh my god I am not ready for the Real World yet). I'm currently in a figure sculpture class since it seemed like the one class I'd be least likely to fail miserably at. I feel I should mention at this point that I have no depth perception. Yes, really. So you can understand my reluctance towards taking any sculpture classes. It's definitely been challenging, but less of a nightmare than what ceramics had been. Also, there is no homework.

Anyway, I think I'm finally getting figuring out how to handle the clay. These are my two most recent studies that kinda sorta look like they were modeled from humans.

Starting off this semester with some drawings. Still not quite ready to get back to painting. I have a couple that I've been working on, though this is the first one that's close to being finished.

I was making a powerpoint of my portfolio for a class when I realized I never posted this painting from the end of last semester.

In other news, spring semester has started and the first week of classes is behind us. I don't know if I'm going to make it out alive this time. It's really sad because my schedule isn't even as studio-heavy as last semester was. Ugh. Here's to hoping my ass doesn't get served too badly.
