Trees!

I finally finished my latest series! It's trees in the different seasons done on small canvasses. These were done using oil pastels along with blending stumps. I spent a while working on them and I think I like the way they turned out!

"Cinnamon" Project

This piece was inspired by Neil Gaiman's short story, "Cinnamon". It's about a girl who is blind and refuses to speak, so her parents, the Rajah and Rani, promise their daughter to anyone who can get her to talk. Many try and fail, but one day a tiger comes along and succeeds, so the girl then goes with the tiger into the forest.
So this is me, I painted my face to represent both the girl and the tiger, then used photoshop to add in some special effects and finishing touches.

Street Art Inspired Project

So here's something I made for a street art prompt... I love music so I thought I would include song lyrics. This song actually makes me sad, so I decided to do something bright and fun with it.... I created my own graffiti font and put down guidelines in pencil, then went back over everything with different types of marker. I hope you can all find the last word, some people didn't get it!
