The Flooding

One of my top moments back in high school was when my art piece, "The Flooding" won 1st prize at the annual West High Art Show in 2008 when I was a junior.  The media I used were prisma colored pencils, and the style of art I was going for was surrealism.  The concept behind the whole piece was that the entire universe had completely flooded underwater in a post apocalyptic theme.  In theory, the only living species to survive such a flood would of course be the fish.  With the increased amount of roaming ability, the fish adapt over time and are able to grow to the size of planets.  The eyeballs are just part of the surrealism style.  That in a nutshell is my idea of a good post apocalyptic concept.

The Beginning of an Artist

It's about time I started my artist blog, woo!  I swear if I had to list one weakness of mine, procrastination would have to be one of the top three.  To add a little more perspective, my profile for this was already created back in October 2011.  
If you haven't already known, I am not currently in school anymore.  I attended Ringling College of Art & Design in the fall of 2009 as a Game Art & Design major.  Unfortunately due to financial reasons, I withdrew the second semester of my freshmen year and left the paradise that was Sarasota, Florida.
Living back home in New Hampshire, I am now a self taught artist.  In my free time, I am constantly drawing in order to improve my skill (as well as my portfolio) and progress as a high quality artist.  My passion in life is to create awesome and inspiring artwork in the entertainment industry as a concept artist/illustrator (and maybe even start my own graphic novel or two)  We'll see how it goes.  Hope you enjoy! =)
