My Spidey Senses started to tingle.

This was a last minute birthday present for my little brother Travis. It was his 6th birthday party (i think :s) lol and it was a pirate party. It was fantastic, and mine was the only present he said 'AWESOME!!' to. It made me feel pretty good :).

2 of my favorite Girls ever :)

This is kenzie, my girlfriend of 1 year on the 22nd :) and her/my little sister Ash. I love her too they are both crazy awesome and so much fun to be around, hence the inspiration for this portrait. Also good practice as this is my 2nd watercolor, and first portrait.

Clay Rose Sculpture

First sculpture. Lovely, isn't it? Also part of the english assignment for 1984.

Plasteline, Never hardening clay with hanger wire.

*For Mrs. Springer*
The Rose as a flower represents freedom and beauty. The rose specifically was given for love back in the medieval times, and is represented as such today. Winston at first is seeking after love, freedom, and beauty and for a short time finds this in Julia. The ironic thing about the piece is, no matter how beautiful it looks or seems, it is bleak, gray, and hopeless. (the clay is a gray plasteline, it never hardens and is permanently malleable) This irony is representing Winston cracking in the end, being a victim of his own nervous system.

"But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother."

First attempt at watercolor. For an english assignment along with the clay rose sculpture. Just got done reading 1984 by George Orwell. Fun stuff.

The Golden Lion

I did this simple piece as a part of a scholarship package my junior year of high school. No bueno on the scholarship, but I am so glad I skipped every class that day to finish this in the school library. It is one of my favorite pieces I've done.
