Of course I know how to love....money that is.



So about 3 weeks ago in class we all tackled a tough question, "What Is LOVE or HATE?" and how do we illustrate love or hate (its basically the same thing right?). So while the rest of the class pursued love with vigor and gusto I tried to do the same. I dug deep down inside my little Grinch heart and asked myself the real Barbara Walters questions like, "What is love? What color is love? Do bananas love?" And of course while the rest of the class illustrated lovers canoodling and families embracing, my icy little heart presented the love it understood the best, loving MONEY. Needless to say I'm pretty sure the class thinks I am soul less and heartless consumer. But at least I'm wearing pretty shoes...

Sorry for the mediocre scan. Money buys me LOVE, but apparently not a quality scanner.

First blog...EVER!



Hello everyone! (By everyone I mean my handful of friends and family that checks in to ensure I'm not abusing drugs) This is my new born blog to showcase any recent art pieces I may have done. This ones an oldie but a goodie. Influenced by A Scanner Darkly I thought I'd try a rotoscope piece. Using Adobe Illustrator and some good ol' fashioned elbow grease, heres "Smoke."
