I'm back :)

After a a bit of an artwork hiatus due to a promotion at work eating up my time and energy, I took on a t-shirt design contest for Back in the Day Bakery (one color image, 8x10 max, $100 if they use it) and am also potentially doing some photo editing for the Savannah Candy Kitchen's website and catalog if they like the edits I sent them (essentially trying out for the job type stuff). Cross my fingers for both to be thumbs up.

Also, a dear friend of mine, Amy, sent me a link to a cool art project that you can find out about here: http://arthousecoop.com/projects/sketchbookproject . I ordered my own sketchbook and plan to participate as it would not only be good practice, but my artwork gets to travel the US and then have a permanent place in the Brooklyn Art Library if I finish it by the deadline. And that would be totally cool... Oh btw my theme for my sketchbook is going to be Nighttime Stories. Kinda excited about that :)


And now without further ado, I'd like to introduce to you my t-shirt illustration for BinDB.

(Ps. One more quarter til graduation. Yay!)

Just an update...

For my first week of no classes, Zac and I traveled home to Florida and then to Birmingham, AL to visit friends and families. My first days off since Christmas to do whatever I wanted... The only pictures I took were at the Aquarium in Atlanta on the way home because I didn't want to miss first hand experiences with my family and friends while we were visiting. Anyway, we got back late Sunday night and I've worked every day since then (until today) and am training to be a shift leader (finally) by the end of the month. It is weird having days off now from work since I am not taking summer classes. I'm not used to having nothing to do. And thusly, I am putting my studio back in order. It was in such disarray from this past year, and the neglect I paid it, so I am going to buy and implement some type of organization system today and give everything a home. That way when I move again it will be easy to find things and get them in order again.

After I've accomplished that I'll work on some new artwork to post and just to keep practice in. I'll also take some pictures of my workspace when I get it fixed up to share with you all.

Til then,
Brit

Family Dinner

To accompany an article about the importance of the family dinner in building social skills, manners, storytelling, intelligence, and togetherness.
Couldn't help but use my family as an example. :)

Final Stretch...

This week is finals week here at SCAD, and you know what that means? Lots of work to be posted in the next week! Working on my two page illustration for Humorous Illu. at the moment. Doing it the same way I did the last project, pencils scanned and digitally colored. Making a "funny book" that will include all of my pieces from that class. If anyone is interested I will post it on blurb later for purchase. Just let me know.

Also have a final piece for portfolio featuring the family dinner. I'm basically doing a portrait of my family for this... Ink and watercolor for this one as with the last for that class, the helicopter parents piece.

Lastly, need to crank out 7- 27 more sketches for my water color sketchbook too. 7 to keep an A, 27 to meet the "100 sketches from life" requirement.

Busy busy busy. And still have two days at Firehouse this weekend. Wish me luck and the ability to sleep this week guys! :)
