Cars!

Fiat has a vinyl wrap competition going on, so of course I spent the time to make one, haha. I based it off of an old Multipla that was inspired by boat styling. And yes, there are certainly old-style rims and whitewall tires involved. It is on a dock because it is a boat. Here is the result of that effort:

Also, I am working on a car design that I can model in Maya for my demo reel. It is still in its infant stages, but I'll share what I have so far:

New Gallery // RAWArtists

I will be showcasing work in a gallery put on by RAWArtists October 27th in Santa Monica at VLounge. I will be showing both CG Animation work and my woodworking, which should be a fun juxtaposition. If you click here, or on the link below, you can both see my profile and buy tickets for the event. It is $10 a ticket, and they must be bought in advance. Come out, it should be amazing!

Sketch Dump // Hands

I am struggling with the 3d modeling of the hands right now on my Cowboy Western character right now. So I basically spent all yesterday drawing hands and watching tutorials. When I finally turned to the model, I was able to completely rework the hand. I'll post that model when its done - but for now here is a sketch dump of some of my hand drawings. Pardon the pen, all I had was a crappy work pen haha

No Back - Sound Affects Art

The Sound Affects Art Gallery was this past weekend - and was really really sweet. Having the MP3 players to help immerse yourself in the understanding of the artwork was really cool, and there was a lot of talent there. Props to the guys setting up the gallery, the bands were sweet and they did an awesome job setting up my piece with the purple fabric and everything. And there were micro canvasses that attendees of the gallery could draw on and hang up - so we did some hilarious doodles. Sorry for the camera phone quality pictures, but there should be an official online gallery coming up sometime soon. If you feel so inclined, my inspiration song was Wicked Games by The Weeknd - link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypE5tsnsPVQ

2hundred000

I have tons of new work, no jokes. It is all unfinished. I feel like I am neglecting the blog, though. The shown image is the album cover to the next mixtape. Expect rapping, R&B and instrumentals on the next tape. In addition, there is fine art and CG modeling coming in the near future. I assure that I have been very busy, and the product will be evident soon. Much love, peace, harmony, USA.

Sound Affects Art Gallery

Hey everyone! I have a piece going up in the Sound Affects Art Gallery coming up this July 30th from 8pm-2am in Silver Lake. All of the artwork is directly inspired by a piece of music. There will be MP3 players available at each piece, so that the viewer can hear the inspiration song while looking at the piece. It is $10, ages 18+, and there will be four live bands playing throughout the night. It will definitely be amazing, and if you are in LA, you should probably be there and see an example of the fine art things I do, and of course all of the other talent at the show.

Driftwood End Table

Finally finished up my first piece of driftwood furniture, thanks to Aurora for the drill, and Kay and Andrew for the extra hands! Its pretty messy looking, but it does the job (holding a lamp and the contents of my pockets). And it may not look it, but it is about 95% stable on a hardwood floor - perfect on carpet.
