Pink blossoms

I see these trees every time I drive home and I just love the contrast of bright pink and green foliage against the almost black bark. I really loved doing this painting, and I'm happy with the results :) 

Too bad the scan takes away some of the vibrance and details :( boo 

The "gouache bug" bit me!

After Leo's class last semester, I didn't think I'd ever want to look at another tube of gouache again. But I sat down last night and decided to paint something for myself. I just love the challenge this media presents, and I'm excited to experiment with it and see what it can do for me. 

Here are some topiaries I painted for my mom for her birthday

I have a -stunning- Liquid amber tree outside of my living room window, and I've always wanted to paint it. I'm pretty excited about how this turned out :) 
I'm really quite pleased with how all of these turned out, considering this was the first time I've tried painting trees with gouache. But I know I still have alot to improve upon ;)  Enjoy! 

CalArts magazine!

My friends and I got on the cover of CalArts Winter/Spring 2008 magazine! Awesome! 

Zesung did the telephone pole sillhouettes, Cindey did the underwater scene, I did the bugs, Linnea did the castle-themed sillhouettes, Nicole did the other underwater scene, and Eric did the "white" sillhouettes :) 

Everybody got their names on the back! 
How cool!! 

More Priscilla's stuff

My Traditional Animation class was cancelled last night, so Linnea, Kris and I went to Priscilla's coffee shop 

Here are some colorful sea monsters :) 

and a not so colorful crocodile thing..

This is an angry lady I drew in writing arts. 
Enjoy!
