Couple illustrations from The Collegian

Article about Police Training

Article about Government Censorship

Article about Bullying

Here are some illustrations I did for The collegian for the past three weeks. They post the articles on the Collegian website which can be found here under the Editorial link....http://collegian.tccd.edu/.... They have some pretty good articles to read, so check it out if you got some time. On another note I got accepted to Texas State for the Spring semester so I will be moving down to San Marcos around December or January. Pretty excited about that cause I need some change. But anywho.. schools going good this semester grade wise and things are lookin up. Keep it real while keepin' it safe.

Computer Ill assignment

Here is an assignment I just finished up for my computer illustration class. The assignment was to create a brochure for "The China Town Festival". The assignment was to learn the bezier pen tool in Illustrator CS4. I definitely learned it well because rendering the lions took a long time because its all lines. I am enjoying the class so far and this was supposed to be one of the more disliked assignments so I hope there is more good to come. Til next time..

Some Recent Work

Here is some stuff I have been working on. New news is I got a job working for The Collegian, which is the newspaper for Tarrant County Community College, but I have been doing the cartoons/illustrations for them. It is new and different, but I am really enjoying it so far cause its getting me an opportunity to see what having an illustration job is like. The three illustrations in the middle was for the recent and past newspaper editions. The two paintings done in oil, the top one is for my grandparents and is 24 x 36. The bottom one is little Ozzy and is 36 x 48. I have been trying to keep up with my personal paintings and trying to experiement with new things I haven't tried before and I feel like its working and letting me find my "voice" a little better. I also finished up my sketchbook which is nice, I can't wait to start up a new one. That's all folks.
