Caricaturing...



I've been working at Disneyland as a caricature artist for about 8 months now (been working in the park for about 3 years), and I realized I haven't taken many pictures of my work. I wish I could show how much I've progressed over the past couple of months. Each day at work is fun and interesting since I get to meet and paint people from all over. I'm really lucky to be working here, and it's such great practice!

This picture was a special request. It was their 2nd year anniversary, and they wanted to be standing outside of the castle in their wedding attire. I accidentally deleted the finished product, and I'm bummed out! It came out really vibrant with green grass, a pink castle and bright fuschia, violet and red flowers. It took about 2 hours to finish. (they didn't stay the whole time, they just left pictures for references.)
This adorable couple was visiting from mexico. I absolutely loved their hats! Took about 40 minutes.

She was visiting from Utah. She told me to give her a "California Tan" haha! approximately 15 minutes.

Meet Lacey

Having some fun with a new character, Lacey. She's silly, adventurous and her favorite food is ice cream.

In Class Doodle


This is a quick doodle I did today in class. This boy is fierce! I'll probably angle his arm and axe a little bit to make it look more dynamic.

Poseidon's Lair?



Here is my finished painting for project 2 for my advanced digital illustration class. It was supposed to be Poseidon's Lair, but looking at it now, I feel like it looks way too feminine. I don't really get a sense of Poseidon, the god of the sea and earth shaker. haha. I'm glad I realized this once I finished with the painting. Oh well. This is due tomorrow and I don't think I'll have time to create a new painting......... This is me bi-failing.

All Good Things,

quick sketch


A quick sketch of a viking! My friend Jennifer asked me if I'd be interested in making a painting for an upcoming show next month, and the theme is Vikings and Marauders. Fun!
