Lonely Boy on the Bus

My concept was to illustrate three different moods of a boy sitting alone on the bus using

lighting and composition. 

The Tale of Princess Kaguya

Here's my redesign project of the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter.

I've changed the ending and given Kaguya a more active role. In the original story she loses her memory after the moon people put the robe of feathers around her and take her back home to the moon while her grandparents mourn over losing her. Instead, I decided to change it and make Kaguya take it upon herself to throw the robe over her and her adoptive grandparents in an act of defiance against the moon and together they forget each other. In the end, even though Kaguya returns to the moon, her last human moments were spent protecting the people she cared about the most.

Definitely going to continue working on more scenes for this project, so stick around!

Girl on the Billboard

Illustration based off the song "Girl on the Billboard" by Del Reeves

Gouache Techniques

Got the opportunity to learn more gouache painting from Mike Humphries again this term! I really enjoyed this class and totally self-indulged here and there. He gave us three assignments where the prompts are: "Children's Menu" "Boy reading a bedtime story of King Arthur to his Dragon Friend who must have a Teddy Bear" and "Two Bugs in a Cottage"

The Phantom Tollbooth Assignments

This term for my Visual Development Class, we were assigned the Phantom Tollbooth.

Here are just some lateral explorations I've finished for this class.

Isometric Sushi Bar

The isometric project I had to do on illustrator for my digital illustration class. Worked on it until 8 in the morning but turned out to be my best piece from this class. School work did always makes me crave sushi.

I also really liked the sushi block designs I did. Mostly because sushi is always cute. Even more in block form.
