Ongoing projects for school

In one of my illustration classes, we were told to come up with a 30 head drawing...not many stipulations other than 30 heads....needless to say this was extremely difficult coming up with a design. I finally settled on a version of the support love banners for gay marriage and the heads are based on some old Andy Warhol fashion sketches.

Here was my first version that took me a week to come up with b/c I was so darn stuck. My brain literally went blank. I was not happy with this one b/c the spacing was off and the men's heads looked a little like aliens. I cut this one up and made it into the next picture.

This was part of the first version of the 30 heads.

Here is the current process of the 30 heads....it may take forever and I am not sure how I am going to pull it all together but ..here we are at a cross roads.

This is for the other illustration class. We had to take part of an object and draw a 3x3 inch section of the item. My teacher picked mine b/c I could not find anything I loved. She picked this flower and I drew the 3x3 inch square...didn't like it, so I broke the frame in two places ( drew outside the box). The section version is in process and it must be the same item but you must use stippling (small dots) to draw the item. As you can see...it will take awhile too.

Here are just some random items from my desk I am working with...

Last...this is what started the 30 head drawing...I was going to make all the shoes have faces and have them lined up on the shelves in the mirror. You may see this again b/c I think I am going to use it for the base of the next project....check back for updates.

Children's Wedding jewelry

I was asked to make jewelry for the flower girls and junior bridesmaid for my friend's wedding that I am in. She wanted pearls for the little girls, but could not find anything she liked. The 3 flower girls are under age 4 and the junior bridesmaid is 8, so I had to make sure they were adjustable.

All three flower girl bracelets. Junior Bridesmaid bracelet. The pearls are on memory wire which holds its shape and just wraps around the wrist. I put two little ribbon bows on each end.
