Albeit in a really roundabout way.

Image definitely recognizable, coming from here.

How bizarre. I think I’m flattered.

A quick piece o’work done during a lull at work.

A quick one for the weekend while I’m doing other things.

A kid playing Dodgeball. Just playing with solid blacks and details.

Wanted to show a girl all dressed-up and ready for a dance show. Top hat, wand, and a lil’ touch of burlesque.

Wow, gosh darn, I haven’t uploaded in a while.

Done over the weekend, amidst open houses and meeting up with old friends. Really need to get into the art groove again. So here goes.

Started and done in one day. Was supposed to upload this yesterday, but there were issues in Wordpress that I only managed to solve today. Felt really dumb coz it was just a simple fix I should have thought of earlier.

Only today I realized the shadows on the clothes are off if he’s facing the sun. Oh well. Error noted. NEXT!

Wanted to try an action pose, so why not a flying kick? Also trying out the method where a texture is placed over the piece to give it some grittiness. Easiest thing to do is to scan a blank A4 and see how it works.

Moving on, moving on.

Finally finished this piece. Not that it’s really finished, but I just know that if I keep picking on it, it’ll never see the light of day.

It just started with the guy in the suit at the far left. Then started with a girl on the opposite page running in the opposite direction… which was then I wondered what if I just keep adding people rushing towards each other?

Took me a while, but at least it was a good exercise in figuring how to create different characters doing different movements.

Next stop, smaller pieces.

Rites of Spring is an annual musical event held in my alma mater, Vanderbilt University. Happens every spring, which is around now. It’s surprisingly a pretty big event these days; back when I was there it was a modest affair with only one guest singer a year. The students organizing the event thus advertised any way they could.

This was one memorable example. This guy was just standing next to the dining hall (so people would definitely see him) with three fire batons wielded Zoro-style. All to attract attention to the writing on his chest.

After a cold winter, shenanigans like this was a welcome way to greet spring. Rites is Coming!!!!
