A Blast To the Past: Friends Forever

This is one of my drawings from March 2007. I based this drawing on me and my best friend Matthew. This drawing is something like a video game of us. I was inspired by the character Sora from the video game Kingdom Hearts. You can see some of similarities in my drawing. The body scales are a little bit off, but I think I did pretty good drawing this for a beginner.

My Drawing "Gods For Life"

Okapi: Zebra or Giraffe?

This was my final project for my 2D Design class. For this project, we had to create a unified design composition based on a central theme of any living thing. In the this project, we had to include everything we learned from the beginning of the term. The project had to be in black and white, with a accent color. The theme I chose was Okapi, which is animal that lives in Africa rain forests. Most people mistaken Okapi for a Zebra because of their stripped legs, but actually, Okapi is a relative of the Giraffe. In my project I including icons, and symbols from the African tribes to make the project more relevant.

My Project

My Award

Because of my "Nina Simone Project" being entered in the school competition, I was juried in the "Nina Simone Competition." I was given an award for being accepted into the art competition and my work is going to be displayed in the school show gallery between March 2, 2010 to April 3, 2010. So if you're in the Atlanta Area, go check out my work at the Art Institute of Atlanta. GOD IS GOOD!

Instructions on: How To

This project was given to me a few weeks ago, and I finally finished it today. The project was to make a simple "How To" poster using less words as possible. The idea of the project was to make sure the pictures you make are clear enough to understand so that you wont use a lot of words. I chose to do "how to make lemonade iced tea" because thats my favorite drink. I had to draw sketches to show how I wanted to create, and it came out pretty good. The hardest part about this was trying to see how man steps did it actually take to make it, but overall process, it wasn't so bad.

Cartoon Mania: Mike B

This picture right here was actually done for fun for Mike B. We were talking and he was like he had this great idea for a cartoon image. He described what he want so I just sketch it out and took it to the computer and came up with this.

Drawing Kicks

This was one of my projects in my art class. You had to draw your favorite pair of shoes. So I decided to draw my favorite Converses. My teacher didn't want us to go really into extra tedious details, so he said make the sneaker nice but keep it simple.

These are my sneakers.


This is my drawing of them.

As the saying goes, "Art Imitates Life."
And as Alberto Lora says, "but good art creates life within itself :)"
