My first attempt at a life size free standing drawing. I have learnt a lot on this one and am really glad that I tried to put one together before my show in Michigan, rather than at the space. Basically, I tried to construct the surface out of light weight luan, because I didn't want to have to ship plywood across the continent. But, it simply is too thin to use, and I feel that nothing thinner than 1/2 in. will surfice.
Anyway, it is about 9 feet long and around 6 feet high. The image is from Ilya Repin's "Bargehaulers on the Volga". Behind this image on the wall will be a portrait of Napolean by Ingres and also some images from "The Disaster's of War" by Goya.
The theme for this portion of the installation is oppression. I am considering making all of the floor free standing drawings to represent symbols of the oppressed while the wall drawings will incorporate images that rerpesent the elitist societies of the Eurocentric past. Elements of which I adore!

...this is a beautiful ink. Impossible to capture the depth of the peacock tones and shimmering colours (at least for me)

I did this using a zendala downloaded from Erin's website, thebrightowl.blogspot.com/2012/04/zendala-dare-2.html. It was my intention to enter her challenge; but I'm not sure I will now. The reason is there are soooo many mistakes on this one. I might do another one, I have a week! The tangles I used are Paradox, Hollibaugh, Mumsy, and what was supposed to be a "Bumps" variation. When I finished I realized I had done the Bumps all wrong, and on the Mumsy, I got lost while I was drawing it, and I don't think it's a real Mumsy. Oh, well. Live and learn. I'm taking a zentangle class (my first one) next Tuesday, so I'd still have time to do another challenge.
blue/red stains added on photoshop. (and I don't like them, but am too lazy to take them off again)
All this was because I wanted to draw some symbolic stuff for a notebook cover, and then stopped at a pair of blue eyes I saw in a photo, and wanted to picture them out (no, they don't look the least like these ones, that even blue are not).
Farewell, notebook cover.

Our second semester project was on Consumerism, I've thought a lot about the affect we have on the environment because of our consumption.
Having young children myself, I have been guilty of buying plastic rubbishy toys that are never played with and the making and dumping of these products, has a horrific detrimental effect on the worlds environment.
The Polar Ice Caps disappearing all together and the problems this is going to have on humans and wildlife has reawakened a conscience in me.
Penguins numbers are rapidly deteriorating every year and I chose to stick to this theme using Hello Kitty as the arch-nemesis.

I've been drawing more or less accurate airplane profiles, correcting my freehand work based on other people's drawings.
Black and white line drawing with references added: Grading my work! The top three on the left hand column are all intended to be Hawker Sea Furies- first and third are my free-hand-from-memory efforts, the 2nd is a nice profile I found on the 'net and used as the source for this drawing, which abstracts dimensions and angles....

It seems wrong to simply appropriate their lines and curves, but more acceptable, perhaps to take dimensions from their work, lay out those dimensions myself, and connect the dots. So to speak. So here are the X and Y coordinates over which a pretty fair Hawker Sea Fury profile (pointing to the left) can be constructed. The large number of lines to the left is, of course, the propeller and spinner. Given that, you can see the centerline right about the middle, with the cowling top and bottom symmetrically above and below that. (broad blue lines) And so forth.
The letter and letter + number identified green strokes are a modest cheat: Connect A to A or B to B, and you've got a diagonal line. Each pair of green marks takes the place of two horizontal blue lines and two vertical red lines, marking the beginning and end of some straight but a-pumb business. Given the top and bottom blue lines, and the gold ones at the ends, I thought it was actually a bit clever.
The D and D + number business are a red vertical and blue horizontal which intersect at a point where it's useful to then plot from that point to D1, D2, D3 and D4, providing three lines suggesting the curve of the top of the clear canopy over the pilot, and the upper edge of the fuselage, behind the canopy.
As I finished this particular Sea Fury drawing, I thought, gosh, that's a sort of nice abstract.... in the strictest sense of the word. Clean it up and put it out for others to see!
An F/A-18F heads skywards. I regret completing a drawing of this quality on lined notebook paper. =/
I was 15 when I draw this, based on a magazine photo. Found here a box with some old things. /

I drew these two drawings of little Andrea, circa 1972, off of this beautiful photo and this one. I love how one photo has everyone looking directly at the camera, and the other is totally candid.
Just look at how adorable Andrea was back then. That girl's still just as adorable. (I'm supposed to say things like that, but here I really really mean it.)
