Chase?

Yay! I'm done tweening my skip cycle! I kinda like the way it looks, so I may not clean up this animation....

Also, my teacher suggested I add a small man chasing after this water balloon character to make it more amusing... I hope he likes it!

Advertising

This is a project I made for an Adobe Illustrator class I took m second quarter at Art Institute (Fall 2009). It was the first time I used Illustrator & I totally fell in love! I used it at work every day :)

For the project we had to select an event (in this case I chose the Atlanta Arts Festival) & then design an advertising poster in a specific art genre (in this case I chose one of my favorites, art nouveau).

Acrylic Paintings

Here are a couple of acrylic paintings I've made over the past few years!

March & Skip Cycles

So I've finished the in-betweens of my march cycle. Now I need to finish my turn around so I can clean up the character, & I need to create a simple background.

Here's the march!:



I'm also working on a skip cycle. I think this one will be just a rough animation (no clean up). Here is the key frame animation:

Character Development

So my teacher gave me an assignment to do 30 character sketches of any one character. I decided to do the Evil Queen from the TV show Once Upon a Time. Below are a couple of concept sketches:

Side Note** I drew these sketches over two days (purple & green last Thursday; & blue & black this past Saturday), I just now got around to scanning them in :P







The body on the left is the one I liked the most so my teacher told me to go from there & sketch out some more poses, faces, & clothing (below):




I liked the two poses on the right so I went crazy & drew a bunch of crazy Evil Queen outfits :) which are below:





There are a few that I like but I'll have to wait until Thursday to see what my teacher thinks. See you next time!
