Sketchbook Spring Semester

These are some pages from my sketchbook of Spring Semester freshmen year. I draw a lot on the go with my friends- we like to go to the coffee loft, tea house, Starbucks, anywhere downtown sarasota, or Bay front park.. or in class. It's our way of recording life around us :) This was really fun to make, I think I'm going to always upload my sketchbooks this way in the future

Animal Sketches and Gestures

The animal section for Figure II is over, but I had so much fun sketching all of them. These are gestures and sketches from that section. I get to go on trips to draw animals for my classes, I really can't complain whatsoever.

Character Design Sculpt


 This here is my full turnaround character sculpt for my final 3d project. I"m currently making the environment this guy would live in. I really enjoyed making him, and I'm having fun putting it all together. (I will be posting his concept sketches soon!) p.s. his name is Hervious. 





Here is some detailed shots-

Art can be stressful sometimes


I've had lots of work recently since finals are all happening now. But I took an hour to update on some art from this semester. Art is stressful, but so far things are going well :)




Ecorche and some gestures


Some figure and my Ecorche model, Enjoying my figure class since we are exploring clothing, folds, and animals this semester. Sculpting is super fun, and not as scary as I thought it would be.  Here's some stuff from the beginning of the semester.

Character Design Sheet for Animation I

Meet Carlton, the James Bond spy of lizards. He is a character I designed for my traditional animation class. Chameleon camouflage, ability to scale walls, and a tongue that can grab anything out of hands grasp with one swipe. Yep, I think a lizard would make a good spy.


you could say I was a little excited to finally get my own tablet....
