Quick Plea For Followers

Come on people! I feel rather lame that I have no followers on here! Promise I'll be more interesting and start posting some good stuff :)

My lastest piece--mixed media (acrylic, thread, graphite, conte). "Looking Ahead." 2010. portrait of my brother as a little boy...while deciding on a college to transfer to, I've found they like to see a more cohesive group of work, so this is my first attempt to make something relatively similar to past work I've done...(though it looks nothing like anything I've posted on here).

New Year

Well once again, I completely forgot about this thing. It's well into the new year now and I've started my second semester at school. In terms of art classes, I'm taking an etching class and a figure drawing class, both of which are excellent...Took a couple classes to get used to drawing naked people for 3 hours at a time, but I've since gotten over that initial strangeness. Etching's pretty rad too--it's cool to see your work engraved into metal and then printed. Anywhoo, for anyone that reads this stuff, gracias!

Oh, and for now I have my sights set on the San Francisco Art Institute. I visited back in January and it's a really lovely school, right in downtown SF. Talked to a teacher there who seems rather awesome as well (and had a sweet accent)...so as for schools to transfer to, SFAI is looking pretty good--hopefully a scholarship will find its way into my hands as well.
