As of tomorrow, my college life is OVER. And good riddance. I loved the experience, but I'm glad its over and I can move on to something else in my life and get a little break from school.

Also, because of said Graduation, I am heading off on a little hiatus. I will be sans internet all tomorrow, and then on Monday I leave for a week in Vegas as a "Happy Graduation" present from my Dad. Since finding out, I have watched all three Ocean's movies, and I think I'm prepared. (lol)

Once I'm back from Vegas I'll be back on the internets, but I'll probably be job hunting like whoa. I've applied to places. We'll see how it pans out.

I'm off, for now!

Dark Awakenings

College life is coming to end fast. It's really weird.

I was going to be taking pictures of one of my newest paintings this week, but then I got some good critique on it and decided to mess around with it a bit more. I only really need to push the values a bit more, so I might put up a WIP version of it until I put in some more bright highlights and dark shadows. I'm also working on a diptych painting for my next project, and trying to finish an older painting at the same time. My last painting is going to be a little different in scale than the others and it'll be a "City of Atlantis" under water temple thing.

My partner and I finished our joint print also, and it came out pretty cool. We only have one more print project left, and I'm really excited about the idea. Plus, it's going to be an etching, and I actually really like those. Then I just have a final essay to complete, which is basically just a "compare the three revolutions you've already written essays about" kind of deal.

I always forget to put updates about my 3D Animation class. I have both of my characters built, and one is just about rigged. I have to rig the second, then texture them. I'm admittedly a little behind in this class, more so than I'd like to be anyway. That can be fixed by pushing myself a little more during my shifts in the DM labs and going in on days I don't work. I'll post stills of the characters once their nicely textured, and then I'll be putting the video up once it's finished as well.

Senior Seminar I still find to be unnecessary and evil at times. At least we're getting class time to do stuff that'll actually add to our portfolio. Still planning on doing my mom's jewelry site, but I'm also working on a few vector images that are going to roughly parallel my painting series.

My Cults and New Religious Movements class is also almost over, which I'm feeling pretty passive about. All our major work is done, so I could take it or leave it.

And in the midst of it all? The Student Juried Art Show. Kill me now. I'm putting five pieces (out of a possible max of seven) in the show this year. I'm hoping a few get in. They'll also be up for sale at the show, so if you're in the Reading, PA area stop by the Freedman Gallery at Albright College and check it out. These are the five pieces I'm putting in:


Once all of this crap is over and done with, I'm going to do the Kiriban image for Action-Hank. He requested his character Soviette in vector. Then I also promised him something f*cked up, which I have quite a few ideas on, but just no time to devote to it until after finals are due >_<.

Thank you all so much! It was fun seeing my counter hit 5,050 ^^. The lucky winner was !

In the next couple of days I'll have another print and another painting to put up. My painting has to be done for Tuesday and my print for Wednesday, so then I just have to get around to photographing them >_<...

The end of the semester is dieing down a little bit for me, so hopefully I'll be able to get some more digital work up. I have the website I'm making for my mom's beautiful hand-made jewelry, and then I'm also doing character design and animation in my 3D II class. I'll have two character models ready for animating by the end of my senior year.

By the way... the next Kiriban is going to be at 5,555! It'll be the same as before. When you catch it, take a screencap and send it to me in a note along with whatever one character you want me to draw for you in either vector or traditional media ^^.
