"THE THREE BEARS"


This piece was for my digital painting 1 class with Howard fullmer. We had to play off of the story of  "the 3 bears" and illustrate in a unique way. I decided to do a play off of the Chicago Bears players, Brandon Marshall, Jay Cutler, and Brian Urlacher. I approached this illustration a little bit different than I was used to.

CITY DWELLING


This was another assignment given in by Will Terry's digital painting class. I had a lot of fun coming up with this idea and painting it. One rule that I will always remember from Will, is to always have a strong sketch before you start painting. I spent a lot of time coming up with a strong idea and sketch for this assignment that when it came to laying in the color, It was very easy to know what colors and what my values were.

I was also able to get this illustration into the Utah Valley University Student show that happens in the spring. I was so pleased with how it all turned out!

BOY SCOUT


This project was in also in my conceptual illustration class. we had to take a news article and illustrate a idea in a non-offensive way. During the time this article was given, the Boy Scouts of America was in the spotlight, excepting Homosexuals as part of their organization. This illustration I enjoyed a lot, I was able to see how to illustrate a serious matter and tie it with fun concepts.
