Oh Snap.

Hey peeps. It's been awhile, right? I've just been trying to get a hold of myself as an illustrator. It's some tough love here and it's not really helping the mind at all. I'll be posting up the work I've been doing in the past few months in the coming weeks.

This assignment was for Computer Illustration. I'm quite happy with the class and it's fun and amusing. We had to explore and design a character for a certain genre or type of product, not falling into the trap of generic character designs. I put my character in the genre of children's books or kids' television shows. Poe is like an outerspace Pippi Longstocking and E.T. combined into one.

I'm still here . . . I think.

So, my scanner is pretty terrible. It does the job in some areas, but obviously not for paintings of any sort. Sigh. So this picture is of bad quality because of that. I'll have to rescan it later.

Decided I needed a new profile pic for Facebook of myself, so I drew it and painted it with watercolor. Little ditty practice.

Once I settle down a bit, I'll be uploading a lot more artwork onto this blog. I really don't want it to die or be a dead blog like my other ones. Here's to making sure it doesn't happen!

Also, Happy Chinese New Year! The Cambodian one is still a way off!

JHo

Everyone's seen this, but I just haven't posted it here. It was a lyrics assignment. I had so many ideas, but this one seemed the strongest to others. I based it off of Kanye West's Street Lights despite it being Kanye. It turned out alright.
