I started by gathering references of the twelve graduating fine artists this semester and painting each of their faces - all of them in a systematic frontal pose. I had mentioned to others when I was in the process of painting these portraits that I had been inspired by one of <a href="http://coro36ink.com/" target="_blank">Justin Coro Kaufman's</a> piece from a few years back. He's an absolutely amazing artist and guy, I would recommend you go there and check out his work. Each portrait took anywhere between a day and almost two weeks. Some just seemed to need more refinement than others, and it was great to be able to sit down longer than a live session would usually take and really work out things over a longer period of time.<br />
<br />
I kept the end result in mind at all times so the background is made of blacks, whites, greys, and a few intense colors to make the final piece even more fragmented. After all the portraits were finished they were sent through a saw and sliced into smaller rectangular bits.<br />
<br />
At this point I was stuck in trying to figure out how this was going to be displayed. I wanted a thin strip of black to encase the painting in, so I talked with my instructor and designed a simple floating frame. To get it done was a feat in itself, this was the first time I had made a custom frame for one of my works. I bought poplar and maple and cradled the hardboard which is what the panels are glued to. Below I posted shots between building the support panel and frame together. I calculated somewhere around 400 hours were spent from beginning to finish on this piece, from taking everyone's photos to screwing the panel into the frame. This was a completely new learning process, one which I'm going to expand upon in the future.<br />

Here are a few of the paintings and a drawing done over the course of my senior year. Each painting was painted from observation each taking 4 weeks. I wanted to branch out a bit and start to play with space around the figure, perspective wrapping, and texture. My palette has become more and more muted as time goes on and I feel it helps to bring out intense colors in a stronger way than when I used to use them all over. I have a couple works in progress at the moment going in new directions which I can't wait to finish up.<br />

This semester we've been dealing with a harsher, warmer light instead of the cold and dark portraits of a year ago. Also have a few real quick studies after school once in a while. The copper pot was done to simply observe a metallic object in natural cool light. The small study done for it was not focused on drawing but purely on color shapes. The cast painting was done to figure out how colors mix with each other coming from a single light source and two strong reflective surfaces.<br /><br />

Back in August when I was trekking around downtown San Fransisco I was told to visit Maido to check out their selection of pens. I've stuck with ballpoint for a while now to doodle around with until it became my favored go to pen. I picked up some 0.3 and 0.5 Hi-Tec C's there and they're incredibly fun to use. In the beginning they seem to never run out of ink, and can produce crisp, thin lines or peppered dots, whichever way it's held. <br />

Recent alla prima portraits, a plein-air study, and a self portrait. I wanted to observe more of the space around me, the warm and cool lights from my friends who were all working on their own paintings. The plein air was done in a 4 hour session in Lincoln Park.

The portrait of Meg definitely came to be by an accident. I had oil primed a wooden panel about a month prior to the painting and since it had been dry to the touch I picked it to start painting on. Thing is from my experience, the room where I leave all my supports to dry makes the oil primer take a very long time to dry. There are stages where it's tacky, then dry to the touch, then completely dry (starts to feel a little gritty). I had started painting and I noticed the oil primer underneath starting to mix in with the oil paint!<br />
<br />
Long story short, it had made the paint very difficult to move and it had sunken in and dried completely the next day. Over the course of 4 days I painted and it gave me a very interesting surface texture I'd like to work on in the future.<br />
