I should throw this up too even though it's like quadruple-posted. It's my interior figure for Jason Bowen's class. It hadn't turned out particularly well at first but after a classmate of mine showed interest in it, I spent some more time on it, and I ended up selling it to her! My first painting I've ever sold. Hurrah! I think it has a nice narrative quality. Got to have a little steampunk/fantasy fun. And I got to march around in goggles and a dress for a few hours.
Here are the only character drawings I got done before spring term started :/ I did a pathetic amount of practicing and drawing over break. Ahhh well.
On the left is a drawing of Bold Riley, a character in a story written by my friend Leia Weathington - I'm illustrating a chapter in her anthology. In the middle is a werewolf from a 40 minute werewolf draw-off with Ed and Petur. He's like, mid transformation, or something. And then the last one is this angry monk dude with a scowl and a weird phallic sword. Yeah. Drawings. Word.

And last but not least, this is a comic I did for an exercise today for my first day of Comics 1 with Dan Cooney. I had fun with it, heheheh.

Hopefully the next post will be filled with more polished, finished-type things...

HOLY CRAP! The comic is AMAZING!
Cool-cool-cool stuff as always!! Love all the print stuff, looks like fun! I always wanted to try etching, but it didn't seem like something I could do easily at home...? Silkscreening was a blast though, and I still have a ton of the equipment... gotta get that out and play with it a bit... :B
More! More! More Kelly art!
btw, what the heck's a suicide block??
Yeah, etching is hard to do at home :/ Lino at least is a bit easier, you don't necessarily have to have a press or whatever. I'd like to take some more printmaking in the future.
A suicide block is where you have a multi-color lino print, and you carve the block for one color, then carve into it again, taking more off, for the next color, and so on. So you can't re-use the block when your edition is done (sad!). Makes lining stuff up a bit easier - I hear it also makes prints more valuable when you've destroyed the matrix cause you can't produce anymore and all that. Idk :P
That sounds like a really cool process, I'm totally bookmarking it! :B
Can't wait to see more of your stuff! :D
