pencil "My eyes, my eyes!" No seriously... this was an interesting assignment.
Blind Contour 2 pencil
Blind Contour 3 pencil Aren't bottles fun to draw?
Blind Contour: Final pencil I got a little bored of bottles
Excecise: Contour Line : Hands pencil
Contour Line : Leaves pencil Not one of my favorites
Contour Line : "Leaves" (Final) ink & stick Picture coming soon! We were finally allowed to use a bit of improvisation which I took full advantage of in this composition.
Excercise: Multiple Contour Line graphite stick Gotta love that geometry.
Multiple Contour Line 2 graphite stick
Multiple Contour Line: Composition 1 graphite stick My favorite so far... It's not perfect, but the chunk of graphite I was using makes it seem somewhat dramatic

Mid-range Clay Unfinished: Considering I haven't touched clay since the 7th grade, this turned out pretty well. I was incredibly pissed off because the mask I was desperately trying to make flopped, but I think I like this better. This is possibly a maquette for something much bigger.
Wormboy : (Left) "......." *** To much Dante's Inferno ***
Wormboy : (Right) "......." I know it's redundant to have so many photos of the same thing... trust me, it's niftier in the flesh.....
Wormboy : (Back) "......."
Wormboy : (Top) "......." As this is definitly unfinished, I will update later with the corresponding photos of the finished piece. But, in case Wormboy blows up in the kiln, I just wanted to have some proof.
"Pitcher Plant" "......." Unfinished: This is what 45 minutes of free time equals. I got to thinking about plants, which isn't unusual. I'm a sucker for biomorphic shapes.
"Pitcher Plant : Different View "......." Black & White Photo from a different angle.
Anguished Tree "......." Unfinished: Pictures coming soon! This has been fired, and will soon be glazed. (Raku)
Untitled wax Maquette: Pictures coming soon! This is my as of yet untitled maquette, although it sort of reminds me of almonds... I have no idea why.... The larger version will probably be in a jade colored alabaster or if i can afford it, a translucent-like marble.
