I don't much update this anymore but I'll just link to my art instagram where I try to produce a sketch fairly often.

COOKIES

This is a bit late

But here are Christmas presents I got for Vemana and Nannaya this year.  (Basically a bunch ton of cookies).

Me and Vemana share an Avatar TLA obsession so his was Appa/Momo themed, and Nannaya likes Spiderman a lot so his was spiderman themed.

And here's the final result before it was shipped off:

Not really an artistic feat but it took a while and was pretty fun.  I think I finally figured out the mysteries of cookie making (seriously.. it's hard) so I was really excited about that.

Christmas Ornaments!

Saw this.  Made these.

Sully, Balrog, Mike, Minion

Dan, Nannaya, and Vemana thought they were cool and made their own:

Dan-made, Nannaya-made, Vemana-made

And some of the ornaments on the Christmas tree:

It was so funny seeing a bunch of grown men crowd around the dining table making these, like a bunch of kids at an arts and crafts table.

Happy holidays :)

Wall mural - finished!

Went home for a day over the weekend - even though I have plenty of work to do for school I decided to finish my remaining circle for my wall mural.  I just couldn't stand the unfinished triangle in my room.  The other two circles were missing their friend.

Here's the mess I made and the finished product:

I used white posterboard to protect the counter tops from the paint - and truthfully, I loved the way they turned out.  They're like little works of art themselves - artistic byproduct.  I'll save them for later.

So here is the finished mural:

Yay!

To give credit where credit is due, my inspiration for this came from the episode Ember Island Players from the amazing show Avatar the Last Airbender.  I loved this episode because it was hilarious and brutally honest.  The artwork in the show is just beautiful and I loved the simpler, whimsical way in which they chose to illustrate the play.
