Tooth Mouse

For my traditional illustration class we are working on 3D models based on "odd superstitions". My model is from the Haitian superstition of the "tooth mouse". Instead of a tooth fairy, they tell tales of a mouse who leaves money and takes lost teeth.

Here is a turn-around for the model. It will be suspended from a string hanging from some sort of armature.

A friend suggested it should be holding a tooth so I will probably add that on later. 

It's a Stag Party Up in Here

STAG BEETLE WADDUP.

Done with watercolor and ink.

I finally finished the work for my application for the California Academy of Sciences Biological Illustration Internship (what a mouthful).

Viva la Espana Finished

After a sleepless night and a war with printers, I finished my duets painting for digital illustration.

Final Zozobra Poster

I finished the final poster for Will Shuster's Burning of Zozobra. I tried to get it to look like the background was beaded.

Skippy the Sea Slug

Finished the sea slug. Now on to actual homework.

Sea Slug

I'm working on a sea slug for a potential internship. It still has some work to go.

My dad likes to tell a story about having a childhood pet slug named Skippy. That never happened.

Flamenco and Poster Progress...

Got some progress done on both my digital illustration project and my traditional illustration project.

A few color comps for the Zozobra festival poster. I'm not very happy with them so I'll  to give it another try.

In progress snapshot. Yes, that is Penelope Cruz.

Late Night Ad Graph

It's been a long night but I finished the layout for the ad graph mailer.

This will go into a slit into the basket. It is made of seed paper.
