Uma Thurman as Beatrix Kiddo in Kill Bill

Another from the figure drawing sketchbook and not an assignment either. I think she's a little too narrow, but her hoodie looks good.

Tony Jaa - Ong Bak

Poses from the beginning of Ong Bak, the scene in which Ting (Tony Jaa) recites and executes moves while his uncle watches. This was in my figure drawing class sketchbook, but not a class assignment. It was my final semester of college, I was in easy classes to just get it done and hardly had any homework. This gave me time to draw what I wanted and my sketchbook looked like it was totally unrelated to the class.

Psychedelic Hallway

Another one from sketchbook class. The assignment was "go somewhere you haven't been at school and draw". This was during my final semester and for the previous 3, I had spent breaks wandering campus and drawing. Seriously, prof? One of the only unexplored areas left was a tiny building with regular classrooms, so I had to make the hallway as interesting as possible.

Media Law Class

This was one of the classes that broke my Dean's list streak. The book was incoherent and the lectures were nearly pointless. The guy sitting next to me was highly amused by this drawing.

Lazy at Taylor

There is a stereotype about people with darker skin colors being lazy because sometimes it's true. This guy was at my workplace for a cleaning job and all he did was use his phone in the office. This was great because he sat still so I could draw him.

Elephants

I drew this in a terrible class that was supposed to be about sketchbooks. The teacher was a Taoist Nihilist who tried to discourage me from drawing realistically. While I was drawing this, there was a video playing about an "artist" who makes temporary pieces out of leaves, stones and branches.

Abstract Disease Practice

I was drawing a disease for a strange art class and wanted to practice one of the sections.

Chad and Grant - Annoying

We're Annoying and you have to listen to us

My 2 favorite Canadian acoustic musicians from Zoran Maslic's 2015 documentary, Annoying. Chad Fontaine and Grant Faithful.

People Sketch

These were done about 4 years apart. The pencil one was at the start of college and the pen one was at the end. Both were done from photos. I can't tell how much progress was made because it's my own work.

Thomas

I met a good friend in a terrible class at MCC. He looked so serious while doing his presentation that I gave him a happy and colorful background.

Magazine Women # 1, 2 & 3

When I was in high school, the internet was not readily available yet. I would spend lots of time drawing from photos in magazines. The first 2 are pen, the 3rd is crayon.

Layla Coffee #1

Around 2007 I got a pair of rats: Layla and Lillith. Lillith was an evil bitch and Layla was the best rat I've ever had. She would always want to drink coffee with me, so I photographed her with my primitive flip phone. Years later at MCC, I had to interpret a photograph for some type of art class, using different marks in each grid section.

Grave Toon

I drew this in 2007 or so. It is based on the same location as Cemetery Excitement. I'm not entirely sure about the materials.

Margins

During my final semester at college, I took easy classes to just get it over with. I hated the school that I had transferred to and had already taken the difficult classes that I needed. This left me sitting in boring lectures, so I drew designs in the margins of my notebook. When school was done, I scanned them all and assembled it.
