Props






Some concept props for an imaginary video game based off of the Lion King... in spaaaaaace! Looking back I wish I had drawn more tables. Oddly enough I got most of my table inspiration from Firefly - I had never looked too closely at the props in that show, and now it's all I can do whenever I watch it. Especially the tables, because they are damn gorgeous.

The Jungle Book


Mowgli defends himself from the rats - er, wolves! I mean wolves. 


This one needs a bit of work still, but if I don't post it now I never will! I hope ya'll enjoy the derpy man-monkeys as much as I do. 

I get the feeling I will forever be doing illustrations of The Jungle Book, and for a good reason - it's an amazing story. Hopefully this means I will also get better at drawing animals that look like the animals they're supposed to be. Practice practice practice!

Buried Alive!


For an assignment based off of a Reader's Digest story about - you guessed it - being buried alive.

Upgrade


An editorial piece for the theme "Getting an Upgrade". If I owned moonboots, I would probably never wear them and then tunneling spiders would build nests in them and I would have to shop-vac them out.

I still want some though.

Pigeon Portrait


A face made out of pigeons, of course. It's a doofy, barely-distinguishable face, but a face nonetheless.

Doppelganger


One of my few forays into actual digital painting last semester. Also contains some of my favorite subjects and themes: doppelgangers and mild creepiness!

Twins


Inspired by a trip to the aquarium as well as the belief that ALL children - not just the inevitable evil twin - are diabolical.

Totes






Some Whole Foods reusable tote designs, because why not? I have always wanted to design one of those! Also wanted to try my hand (again) at repeating patterns. I am super excited to say that it went better than every other previous attempt.
