Sonic



Oil Painting 2006
I am a gamer...yup.

Hulk Buster Iron Man



Oil Painting 2006
I am not really proud of this painting. Again, learning a new way of using oils. Same as the (much better) Sonic painting.

Reality 2




Oil Painting 2007
I believe I was getting really deep at this point...so much so that it is hard to remember the full meaning lol. The bridge, which is suposed to lead you across the water, lead you into it instead. You aren't falling or anything, it's almost like walking into a water fall (only the water is rapidly moving to the right). This was also another one that was hard to photograph...so I included to shots.

Screen Print 2006
This is another screen print. If you don't know who this is, then you must not be a Ghostbusters fan lol. I need to make a print of the other Ghostbusters (the ones with the 2 guys and the gorilla) show!

Ghost Mario



Screen Print 2006
Screen prints are fun, yet time consuming. You have to take one color and apply that to everything in your image that shares that color. First, draw a picture. Then you trace it onto cells and color everything in black. The cell (which is see-through) goes onto a silk screen and is exposed to light. The only parts that show are the parts on the cell. After that, you cover up what ever you don't want to color. So, when you add the ink (lets say your coloring the hat and shirt), you cover everything else with paper. The sheet that you are printing on is placed under the screen (using tape to make sure you put it in the right place for each color). When you run the red ink over the screen, it falls through the parts marked by the cell (that aren't covered). You have to do this for each color, one at a time. Did I mention you have to wait for each one to dry before starting a new color lol. This was my first one, which is why there are only a few colors!
