Groom Killer

(colored and black and white finals. ink, gouache and photoshop)
i am doing a series of illustrations based on the supernatural beings that people have claimed to have sensed or seen on the horse farm that i grew up on. this piece is based on the ghost dubbed "groom killer" or "man killer". we had (she has moved on apparently) this ghost of a mad horse in the third aisle of the main barn who some believe was the spirit of a mare that had killed acouple of employees back in the day before we owned it (the farm is over a hundred years old).
i had an interesting time with this piece, i was encouraged to be more loose with my ink work so i was kind of out of my comfort zone...i think it turned out ok.

Love Hurts

third narrative assignment. we had to choose a life event that presented us with a strong emotion, so i chose 'surprised' as my subject matter. these two sequential illustrations depict the first time my ferret o'malley bit me, the little ninja came out of nowhere, latched onto my thumb and wouldnt let go. i didnt want to do anything depressing especially since i was already focusing on a painful memory for my life writing class (short memoir assignment). it just would have been too much to deal with so instead i chose something that hurt but at the same time was alittle funny.

Hunger & Rage

(click on images to enlarge)
second narrative assignment. themes to choose from were: tenderness, rage, mystery, infatuation, hunger and cunning.
i chose hunger and rage...this narrative is an exaggeration but if you know me well enough you know how i am when im hungry.

'Good & Bad' ft. Rough Work

AI intro project, objective was to create an illustration that interprets 'good & bad'. also tried to play around with other themes suggested in the brief such as: angel/devil, life/death, quiet/loud etc.


rough for my 2nd narrative assignment, final soon to come!
