Oh man, it must be around 15 years since I've picked up a sketchbook or an airbrush. I do everything these days using photoshop.
For example:
Take one picture of someone fooling around on a uni...

Then take some arty shot of a rooftop...

A bit of photoshop jiggery-pokery and hey presto! Insant daredevil...

I have waaaay to much time on my hands.

These are the drawings, the paintings are next. Most of this stuff is from my classes.

"Drawing I: Inside my head" -

We had to draw what was going on inside our heads. Most peole drew books, or music or something. This furthered my wat to having the class think I was psychotic.

18" x 24" charcoal on paper

"Drawing I: Hurricane Katrina" -

This assignment was to draw my thoughts on the Katrina disaster. Everyone else came in with people crying, and mothers holding children... I came in with rape and masturbation.

18" x 24" ebony pencil on paper

"Drawing I: Portrait" -

This is a portrait I did of my brother. It doesn't look much like him, and I don't really think he is that angry or depressed. to be honest, I just wanted to draw all the stuff in the background.

24" x 18" charcoal on paper

"Drawing I: Collage transfer" -

The assignment was to make a collage, then transfer it, using a grid. On the left there is a kid with his hand in a meat grinder, and on the rigth there are three happy kids.

24" x 18" ebony pencil on paper

"Robot vs Mime" -

This is my answer to the second problem of a heat transfer exam I took at Clarkson. I think all 4 pages of the exam are in another one of my albums. I got a zero.

11" x 8.5" pen on paper

"Drawing I: Self Portriat 2" -

These are two peliminary self portriats, for a life sized one that I have to draw for my final.

16" x 18" Charcoal on paper

"Drawing I: Dream" -

We had to draw our dreams, I don't have them, or don't remember them for the most part. Sometimes I dream in sound. This is how I felt after having an absolutly terrifying dream where I could hear footsteps in my basement outside my room.

People didn't really think it looked like a nightmare though, so I guess it's ineffective.

18" x 24" pen and ink on paper

nick · 2006-05-31, 11:26 PM

And here are a few of my paintings:

"Story of Ricky" -

This is my crashpad for bouldering. It has probably kept my from breaking my ankles ar smashing my head on quite a few occasions. now when I look at it I get wicked psyched to climb and I can send anything (if it's easy...). The Charecters mean "Strength" (or power) and "King". I didn't know this when I painted it, but have since been told that.

72" x 48" Fabric paint on synthetic (nylon, I think) fabric

"Plymouth Aflame" -

This was my 1993 plymouth acclaim. I masked it off and spray painted these flames. three colors, blended. It looked amazing. I had added a cows skull to the front of the car eventually, and it was super awesome!

Krylon spray paint on car

"Painting I: Whats inside my head" -

I'm not going to get into this one.

24" x 24" acryllic on canvas.

"Painting I: Open Topic" -

This is a painting of that clown I met in San Fransisco. I think it came out great, one of my better paintings.

18" x 24" acrylic on hard canvas.

"Painting I: Neo-Expressionism" -

We had to paint in some kind of a style. I chose Neo Expressionism. I love it.

24" x 24" accrylic on pressboard.

"Painting I: Sef Portrait" -

Here is the finished version. I like it better now. Actually, I realy like this peice, it's reay big (larger than life sized), and it came out pretty much the way I wanted it to (The color is supposed to be off).

38" x 90" acrylic on canvas.

A few of my better drawings and paintings are some what innapropriate to be posted here, but the link to my whole portfolio is: http://ccsu.facebook.com/album.php?a...73&id=48805852

The last picture is crooked, but I've not got around to adjusting it with photoshop.

samia · 2006-06-01, 10:15 PM
