a watchful eye

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile" ~ Albert Einstein

I just finished this one last night. Another gift, so one of my favorite superheroes has always been Superman. The parts of him that I like the most is his attempts at just trying to fit in, that humility but the burden and responsibility of being a protector. I think that is a great trait that humanity has a capacity for. To be humble yet assume greatness and do great things for the sake of others. I admire that quality. This was done on 400 series paper with black charcoal and some white charcoal.

...tiny dancer...

This is of my cousin Tenaya, who is a dancer currently attending UCSB. As a birthday gift I drew this picture of her for my mom who happens to be her godmother. So this was another white charcoal on black canson paper.


This was a pic of it using Hipstomatic.

For a friend

I had drawn this for a friend. I liked the picture a lot and had said I was going to draw it. This was white charcoal on black canson paper. This and the surfer drawing are probably two of my favorites right now. I think its the imagery and action they both convey.

In my spare time

So I've moved to San Diego and without cable and internet (which I have now) I had nothing but time. So like I always say to myself, I needed to work on my art. So this is one of my latest. I like the way this one came out a lot. It is charcoal on basic 400 series paper.
