High School art: fire girl

I thougth this was a great photo and wanted to copy it with pastels. It hangs in my mothers house to this day—right ma?

High School art: old head

I thought this was a cool picture of an old person, with all the wrinkles and what not.

High School art: ruins

This was an oil painting I did, again from a photo.

High School art: tara

Big sis was my role model…living out in California…so cool! So I did a portrait of her. The symbol at the top was a tatoo she got back then, when she was about 20—something about life and creativity, can’t remember.

High School art: window

Another pastel from high school. I used to have a fascination with windows looking inside of a space. Maybe I still do…

High School art: worker

A pastel piece I created in high school. I did a lot of copy from photo art, it helped me then. Now I understand that it isn’t as helpful for the long run, in terms of learning to draw what I see.
