18″x24″ Watercolor on “Medium” Drawing Paper : Un-Framed

While I was watching the DVD of “Lemony Snicket’s: A Series of Unfortunate Events,” I paused the portion of the test-footage while this kid who played Klaus sat in this big chair with his leg crossed. Within a few minutes I outlined the image I saw finished the movie and extras and completed the image that night. I used a permanent marker to outline it.

While watching the movie Lemony Snicket’s: A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004) I decided to sketch out and watercolor the character Klaus Baudelaire. This was added it to the [LINK cat=65 ] section.

Since it’s been almost a month since my last update here is a basic list of what I’ve been up to:

10/27 & 10/28: Began to render my birthday videos.

10/29: Having wanted to see some old footage I popped in and captured my MiniDV tape #04. It shows me and my cousins Luis & John in a Buena Park drive-thru in 2000. I decided to quickly edit the raw footage for YouTube.

10/30: After normalizing the audio I began to render out various versions attempting to remove the 30fps interlacing for a correct 24 progressive image.

11/6: I finally uploaded the [LINK post=8150 ] raw footage.

11/10: On the same tape I found some PD footage named it [LINK post=8151 ].

Also began to re-design the Movie section.

11/11: Finished my birthday videos – to be posted up soon. Cont’d on the Movie section.

11/12: Uploaded the new Movie section design – STILL UNFINISHED.

11/21: Uploaded most of the missing HD versions of the digital camera videos. I will add them to Flickr as downloadable links soon.

24″x30″ Acrylic Oil on Canvas Paper : Framed

I noticed this particular image while running across a website. It was one of the 1st image that I had planned on drawing in Acrylic. I think it’s a decent attempt. Even though the skin colors came out more neapolitan then I had hoped it overall meshed well with the surrounding browns.

In Progress:

Added to the [LINK cat=164 ] section are two images that explain why I never plan on drawing faces in oil paint again. In time I will probably update them to faceless females.

I went out and bought a nice huge canvas and needed an image to draw. A pretty girl always works. I have never been good with faces so this is my valiant attempt to draw one nonetheless with oils.

Ali-G who’s real name is Sacha Baron Cohen is a well known British comic. This is the first “face drawing” I attempted to draw in Oils. Since I only had a starter set of colors I did my best to get a full range of depth.

20″x30″ Color Paint on Thick Drawing Paper : Un-Framed

When the whole import car scene began to explode in 97 I was obsessed with drawing race car inspired image. I had to make a backwards template splash it with color and then transfer it to a piece of thick drawing paper. In art class kids were drawing flowers and shapes. I drew race cars and their drivers.

10″x10″ Watercolor on Thick Board : Un-Framed

I saw this image on the inside cover of Snoop Dogg’s “Doggystyle” album and decided to submit it as my art project final. While everybody was drawing abstract image of flowers and shapes I drew an image of the newest rap-artist propelled by the “gangsta-rap” era. My teacher didn’t know who he was but allowed it. I bet you he knows now!
