Stillness

Hold still. HOLD STILL. For. Two. Seconds. Hold still.

I hate when people move around while I'm trying to draw them. I guess thats why there's such a thing as paid models, eh? I'm just kinda sick of staring at naked people, ya dig?

Nah, I'm just messing with you, that'll never get old. Too bad I'm not posting those on here! hahaha...yet.

So, instead, I thought I'd post a few still lifes I have. They're in colored pencil, one of my favorite media to use. Enjoy them! DO IT!

2008, junior year of high school

This is an important post, because this piece is particularly special to me. It was done in the summer of 2009, right before my senior year. I started working on a few projects on my own over that summer after being rejected for the Cooper Union summer program. That school is so uptight, I wasn't too butthurt about it. Anyways, this was a still life I set up on my floor and worked on for a week straight. It ended up being featured in the Katonah Museum of Art in a young artists exhibit.

The Katonah Museum of Art is a really wonderful place to visit because they rotate their exhibits every few months. There's always really beautiful art, and if you're ever in the area, you should really check it out. Ferreal.

Anyways, thats about all I have to post about for today, let me know what your thoughts are. I'll probably be posting more frequently after I finish this lengthy 2D project. I think its going to come out nice though, I'll post anything that looks interesting.
