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.

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.

Marty Friedman

The guitarist from Megadeth drawn from a photo in a guitar magazine. This was done in the sketchbook class. There was just not enough course material to hold my interest. If the professor had just taken a few minutes to write down some ideas for assignments, the class would have been better.

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.

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.

Group Guys

I was attending college and mental health and addiction group meetings for a while and drawing people was the only way to pass the time. I think that I got more out of drawing people in rooms than the other guys got by taking the "process" seriously.

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.

Rock Wall at State Fair

I drew this one from a photo taken of me in high school. It was at the state fair and I thought it would be cool to climb the rock wall. That was until I reached the top and looked down. It no longer seemed like a good decision at that point.

Pat Benatar Portrait?

Is this Pat Benatar? I drew it from a magazine photo in high school and did not label who it was.

Motley Crue Portrait

Drawn from an album cover or magazine photo when I was in high school. If anyone knows which dude this is, please comment.

Jeff's look of disgusted exasperation

While at MCC, I worked on a presentation for media class with a guy who wanted to talk about men's rights. I would watch everyone in class and he always seemed disturbed by what was being discussed so foolishly. It being a stupid class, I had lots of time to draw in my sketchbook.

Denny's Girl

I was sitting in a Denny's near Buffalo, NY with my friend, Mike. We were getting lots of coffee and I was drawing because neither of us had anything better to do. This was either pencil or conte and crayon.

Fatty Boom Boom #5

This was the main model for figure drawing class. That meant she came in 2 or 3 times. The prof said to put her poses across the page and I watercolored it later.

Coat on Hanger

I think this is my dad's coat, but have no idea when I drew/painted it.

Blackie Lawless from W.A.S.P.

Drawing from an album cover in high school. Pencil on paper.

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.

Cindy

A girl from high school art class. We were friends and I would spend most art classes talking with her or one other girl. I was quite the casanova ladies' man in high school.

Marilyn Manson Drawing

I drew this in 9th grade, which would make it 1997 or 1998. I tried to get it into the school art show with the rest of my portfolio in 2001, but it was rejected because of who I drew. It was either pencil or charcoal on paper.
