Zoo Photos






Andrea in charcoal

I was drawing at a bad angle so she came out a little out of proportion but I think you can at least tell who she is... Practice makes perfect. And yes she is sticking out her tongue a little in the picture so that's how I drew it.

Amy in Charcoal

Just had some charcoal paper left over and nothing to do, I think I've found a new favorite medium!

Yet Another Photo Of The Day!

So, I am apparently going to follow through with my postings of the favorite photo taken any given day. This is Mary and Jose after not seeing each other for a couple weeks. It makes me smile, so there you go.

Photo of the Day


This is just a little idea I had. the concept of capturing a day in a photograph. I can't say if I'll actually follow through with this every day but it is a start. This photo was taken relatively early this morning when I couldn't sleep, it's unedited.

Self Portrait in Charcoal



This is my self portrait with multiple faces, I couldn't decide wether I liked the image using the flash or not so here's both views. Considering that it is my first finished charcoal portrait I'm very proud of it. I think my only issue with it is that my nose is like out of proportion in each face but, I enjoyed this project and am looking forward to working in charcoal again.

Autobiography as Haiku

Livie was my name,
I can't figure that life.
Past and present appear to blend
in a intolerable whirling fixation.
Lost, Schizopherenic loops.
Now what's left is best forgotten,
that's why I can't remember her life,
as i am not what I was.
All that's left is this beginning.
