Inspiration Board #2 Vintage Carnival Ice Cream Stand

Here is my dream wedding! Basically, I want it to feel old school, boy-girl, puppy dog love. I love ice cream, so an ice cream stand is a must! Who needs cake, right? I love the roller blades in the bottom picture too :)

Pictures

I had a project for my art class where we had to do a self/non-self portrait using photography and other medias. So basically, we couldn't show our face directly in the portrait. This first one was the only picture I actually followed instructions. But I ended up not even using these for my project, but they turned out really cool. I knew exactly what I wanted for these, so i had my little sister, Abigail, come along to help me because I couldn't take the pictures by myself. We rambled into the woods with a whole collection of odd items: a mirror, a chair, an umbrella, a bag full of masks, nails, hammers, pears, hats, and the list goes on! We probably looked really funny. But here are my favorites!

CHRISTMAS BREAK!

YAY! No more school. For a month at least! Ah.

Inspiration Board #1 Tropical Bird

I love the inspiration boards on Snippet and Ink and all those other bride blogs! So I decided to try and make one. What do you think? Maybe I have been thinking to much about summer and Carribean islands lately... With cool fresh air and blooming flowers. Oh! and birds just are nice :)

I don't know where I got all these pictures. I'm pretty sure that I got some from Snippet and Ink, and the venue is Hecker Phelan Guthrie Interior Designers. So if you happen to know exactly where these pictures are from, please let me know so I can give them full credit.

Update on my homework...

Here are some of my projects for my drawing class. I used charcoal for all three.
This one is my self portrait haha. I'm not that scary looking all the time...I promise :)

This piece is 18"x24"

This one was just a random portrait I did, but I won't be turning it into class. It was just for fun! The nose...well...lets just say I don't appreciate how the nose looks like its about to fall off but what can ya do! (Also 18"x24")

Then this one was an imaginative self portrait. So basically, we had to incorporate ourselves into where or what we wanted to be. I love Egypt, so I wanted to be the Sphinx. Sorry I look like a man... (This one is bigger then the other two. I think its like 22"x36" but don't quote me on that)

So there is a small update on my life the past week or so. I don't have pictures of my other projects or I would put them up. Maybe soon!

Oh and...uh...let me know whatcha think :)

Hello People

Lately, my life has been crazy. I was excited for Thanksgiving break, but at the same time I'm so relieved its over. I just want to finish this semester...fast! I have five more projects due for my two art classes. Three self portraits, with different assignments, and then a mandala and then a perspective drawing showing motion. I'll show pictures when I'm finished with them all! Just barely hanging in there, art-wise. Eeeepp. Almost done.
