Landscape Class Final

As part of the class final for my landscape painting class, we went out across the street from Marina Jack in Sarasota,FL and all worked on huge pieces of chip board in black ink. The class sat with our backs facing each other in a huge circle. It was the most fun I had had all year in the class. This is my piece of the assignment. It is duck-taped at the top because the boards was so cheap, it warped like crazy. I ended up taping it to hold it down. I had to toss this in the move back home.

African Violets

Took care of some flowers for a couple months and drew a couple highly experimental pictures every couple weeks. These are on all different types of paper using all different types of media. WAS REALLY FUN!

Altered Landscape

To me, the idea of gas station perfectly represents how we manipulate and abuse the land around us. To me, it is the quintessential landmark of global warming and the idea of human greed. I painted this primarily in ink washes and added a little line-work in at the end.

This is the last assignment for my landscape painting class.

This is the first assignment for my landscape/ drawing class. We were required to do it in black and white. The finished drawing was 17"x 29".
