New York City!

Tue Oct 9, 2007, 6:12 PM
I'm spending this semester at the AICAD New York Studio Program! I have a studio and apartment in Brooklyn. It has been going really well so far - it is very "fine art based" so I am getting exposed to a lot of contemporary art, the likes of which I probably wouldn't have otherwise bothered to pay attention to. So I'm learning :)!
I'm also trying to get around town and show some people my work and talk to them about being an illustrator. I've gotten some great advice so far :).

Anyways, I just posted some sketches from a project I started right as I got into the studio - a character a day (inspired by my sequential art teacher). I've seen so many captivating people on the train or the street, I thought this could be a good opportunity to experiement with the figure in a more "Cartoon" context, while becoming more familiar with ink. There are a lot of characters so far, but I posted only 10 or so. I've done some comic strips too, which perhaps I'll post too. You should let me know what you guys think, if you have the time.

Cheers!

Like hey, wow, man.
(hmm, I never thought I could use that line outside of the play from which it came)

So.. I haven't looked at all your deviations yet, but then again my 34 to your 160 something really is quite a difference...so give me time.
