a little splash of color on accessories

For this assignment, we were asked to sketch three classmates with their accessories. From there we were instructed to practice emphasizing certain areas with watercolor.
This was one of my first times working with watercolor. I really was impressed with how freely it worked. I thought it was very fun and expressive. However, I did come to realize that skin tones are extremely difficult to match.

First week back/ever at UNCG















For this project, we were asked to compile a two page spread in which we would tell about our first week back to school. We also were asked to take ideas from two magazines to help in our composition. I drew a moving truck as the main focus for my work because I just recently moved to Greensboro. The only thing I would change about my project is the way I wrote "A Fresh New Start". I'm not every happy with it and I do not feel like it flows very well the rest of my layout.

Illuminated Objects

I really enjoyed this assignment. I used black ink as well as blue color pencil. I do wish though that some of my objects were bigger such as the sketchbook.
