Initially I was about to go over the bag with a wash of black. I thought about it some more and came to the conclusion that the details wouldn't show as well as I would have liked. So here it is! Another addition to my Material Girl series.

I'm going to start a new series called: Material Girl

Based on my desires as a poor material being, and my wanting such and such things, I've decided to be proactive about my wishlist and creating art out of it. I hope you can sit through a materialistic blog.

[oh goshers!]

The blog will contain other art such as architectural case studies and other stuff I find interesting.

medium: pen in sketch book

Throwback Thursday. This sketch reminds me of when I took 10-30 minutes out of my time to take a breather in NYC and draw. Throwback to last year. Wow. I returned a year later and found out the city hadn't changed much, but I did.

it was a lot of fun to paint this portrait. Ever since I saw the source picture I thought, "HEY I SHOULD PAINT HIM ON WOOD!" As I was progressing and in the middle of it, I thought, "ughhhhh I messed uuuup"

I think I'm satisfied with the final product.

my portraits never really look like the original source pictures anyways. hehhehehe...

I might make a case study of modern architecture.

I may compile all of my images/illustrations of architecture and put it in a book. Hopefully I don't get burnt out by the book before I hit the half-way mark. -____-'
