Christmas Card 2013 -Fuller Consulting Engineers

I created these as part of a Christmas Card for one of the (structural) engineering companies I work for.  The first is the exterior of the card and the second was on the interior.  I had loads of fun creating these and many of the clients who received this card called the office saying how much they enjoyed it. 

Flat Out Under Pressure 2013

This image was created for Greenville's "Flat Out Under Pressure" competition.  It's a 24 hr. painting competition with traditional media only.  I worked in gouache (opaque watercolors) which I haven't used in over 10yrs.  This was a big challenge for me.  I think next year I will pick a medium I am more comfortable with and I will probably work on canvas so I don't have to do the framing at 5am like I did this morning.  Overall, I enjoyed it and am looking forward to next year's competition.

New Sketches

 

Finally, some new sketches for spring. 

 

 

 

 

New Year/End of the year

This was a quickish sketch...the last one of the year.  I haven't made all my artistic goals this year,but reading about Maslow's "Hierarchy of Needs" allows me to give myself some slack.  If you have never read about it, it basically says that one's basic needs must be met before one can attend to higher needs.  I am hoping in this next year I will be successful in meeting basic needs so that I may be free to be more creative and artistic.

Figure Drawing - Oct. 2012

Mermaid Update

Finally found some time to work on this digital painting.  It's still pretty messy at this point, but I am liking where it's heading and having fun painting it. 

Brochure Design

Just finished a brochure for an engineering company.
