For Mark Goerner's advanced entertainment class we had to do an environment painting. I based mine on african jewelery and design aesthetics. Well it doesn't work. There is no consistant design pattern. It's to complex. In simpler terms i can't use this for anything. Several hours of rendering for the opportunity to learn from my mistakes. "GREAT". Well back to the drawing board....

The Famished Plains

We had to draw random images and make a story using them. This class is visual storytelling.

The Famished Plains

The floating air station is our home away from home. Our ancestors were driven away

from their once fertile farm land. A faint glow appeared under the rich soil of a thousand years

ago. Distant land strangely grew dry and crops began dying. In the ancient scriptures it is said hat

a meditative creator would build a structure from thought and maybe a little help from

technology saving our people from certain death. The chaotic structure would stretch from the

dying land up to the heavens and away from the evil that would fall upon our land. Elders

mention that while the creator was conceiving our home he would have a guardian, the

technology angel. The open plains consisted of famished flowers, incapable from growing due to

the poor weather and constant turning of the soil from a certain desert amphibian. Within these

most famished of flowers is the perfect hiding place for the angler of darkness, which was a

demon said to have the ability to destroy crops and entire civilizations. The only way to know of

it’s presence is to look for the haunting glow of the bulb at the end of its head. This is our only

warning, and why the elders called upon the creator. Until now life remained pretty much on the

ground. When our beloved jigsaw puzzle of a structure was nearly complete the dreaded angler

emerged from the golden plain and attacked the creator. But the angel intercepted the wicked

plot and drove the demon back to the lifeless soil from which it made the terrifying ascent. The

only thing that remained of the angler was it’s lure that continues reminding us of the horrible

encounter. Due to the battle the lower portion of the structure was nearly obliterated. The angel

gave up his armor plating and set it under the structure using the strength of the heavens to give

us all support. The warrior in the angel armor walks among us today. He lives a normal life

waiting until the next time bereavement decides to transpire from it’s dark prison of dessert soil.

In Class Speed Paints

Robh let us do two speed paints in class the first was an hour and the second 45 min.

Huntington Library Speed Paints

These are some paintings i did from Huntington Library. They took me about 45 min. to do.

another landscape painting in class

Landscape Painting

Here's my homework for last weekends lp- landscape painting. Each painting took about 45min. -hour. These are from a trail not too far from my apartment.

First Landscape Painting Class

A few marker studies of Art Center that I did in Robh Ruppels landscape painting class.

Giants

These are a few giants that I was messing around with. Originally they were supposed to be native american but i later decided to make them kind of mid evil. I came to understand that Giants are only Giants because of their relationship with their environment. I tried adding props and other things to indicate scale. I had a little problem giving them personality and a story. Any suggestions.

black and white comp.

Well I added texture and worked a little more value into this piece. But before i start color do you guys have any suggestions? Keep in mind that there won't be much contrst on the Nazi plane when i add a lighter value explosion later.
