Manhattan
























Ive gone and gotten a little carried away with the color on this. I actually have 6 other color ideas on this but didn't upload all of them. I enjoy a muted color palate. When I get too crazy with my color things just go BAD. Its funny to me that when I move to new york city mid june I'll actually be living in the same city as this guy. He created my favorite movie of all time, Annie Hall. If you haven't seen it, its a must. I'm listening to classical music which makes me miss dancing. I want to take ballet again....I miss being graceful.

allen-ated

the re-sketch for my honors portfolio class assignment, portrait of woody allen I'm doing. I had way to much of a stressful day. Its deals with not backtracking and loosing myself as an artist just for the sake of money.....tiresome. tired.
woody looks happy though.

Woody Allen

Woody Allen portrait thumbnails for tomorrows class. Collage/pencil/pen on paper.

me a nerd with my woody allen esq glasses.

Rabbit Hole

I drew this today. Inspired by the color of candy.
I saw Coraline last night with my friend Tanith. The minute I got home I drew this, its inspired by the tunnel that Coraline crawls through. It reminds me of alice going through the rabbit hole.....The Other Mother was terrifying. She really to me magnified the Negative Mother Complex that you read about in Jungian analysis.

Downtown.


Collage piece im working on. After class today I come to find out again that I need to stop doing what I think will please others and stick with who I am....bleh. Especially when what I think will please others doesn't. I'm such a rabbit about everything, nervous and anxious it cracks me up how much I relate to my power animal sometimes. It's such a fight club moment. Oh and I need to stop comparing myself to every artist. It really doesn't help my sanity to do that. I'm listening to Jackson C Frank. He rocks. Country twang check his music out if your bored. Its touching. Also I'm digging listening to my collection of Nina Simone. Inspiring.

color field...

This was a lot of fun to make. I painted it and drew it on a piece of pre-painted pink wood scrap. I call her color field. Maybe I should do more color works. I can't wait to move to new york city. Its getting closer and closer and I'm more and more excited. I feel like more then before that I found myself artistically but after a long hard and depressing road. I can only thank my family, friends, art school and jungian analysis. I need to draw a bunny on this somewhere haha.

Angry Bunny


This is actually the first ever "angry bunny" drawing I did. I don't remember which class I was in, probably some sort of academy of art lecture gen ed. class. As a little bit of side info in Jungian analysis you are taught to draw the different sides of your psyche. Angry Bunny would be my angry side, which also means that my angry side can be laughable at times. He is showing Monolpoly who's boss.

Blog name


Its bunny mountain. I decided to name my blog after this particular drawing, probably because of the reactions I get from it, people smile when they see it. Makes me wish there really was a bunny mountain erupting color for the world. Ah well there is one in my head and now on paper. I love you bunny mountain. A really awesome artist I met in honors portfolio said I should get a blogspot for my art. So I did thanks Miguel!
