Finished Tattoo Design

 This is the finished draft with color. If the client is happy with it, I'll scale it to size and translate it to black and white or basic color for the tattoo artist to work from.

MFA Thesis Transfigurement; Animophilia and an in-progress tattoo design



Now that I've finished my thesis, I'm taking more commission work. This is a tattoo design I'm in the middle of! It's an augmentation of an existing tattoo that the client wanted illuminated. The circle outlines are the existing tattoo; the color, bird, patterning, and shading will be added. The green lumps are pattern weights. Very useful for holding your paper down. They won't be in the tattoo.

Meanwhile



 Still getting the hang of silverpoint.

I didn't anticipate being someone who drew big cats often, but I do. Fur patterns.


This ended up not being the poster for my part in the show, but I think it looks neat and is a good advertisement. Come check out fabric designs!

Some snapshots from Summer and This Week

Lots of work being made and lots of work that didn't work out. Here are some snapshots of small works and some images of typesetting from my time at the Bow & Arrow Press this summer.
