I gotta say, I'm not super comfortable with Oils... like at all...so here are a few studies. 

Finals Coming to a Close

My Visual Techniques Final with and without the logo.

Printed is 24"x18"

This image was inspired by a very powerful story.

Rob Moris, the President and Co-Founder of Love146, traveled to Southeast Asia in 2002 on an exploratory trip to determine how they could serve in the fight against child sex trafficking. He was taken to an underground brothel undercover.

"We found ourselves standing shoulder to shoulder with predators in a small room, looking at little girls through a pane of glass. All of the girls wore dresses with a number pinned to their dress for identification. They sat blankly watching cartoons on TV. They were vacant, shells of what a child should be. There was no light in their eyes, no life left. Their light had been taken from them. These children...raped each night.. seven, ten, fifteen times every night. They were so young. Thirteen, eleven...it was hard to tell. Sorrow covered their faces with nothingness. Except one girl. One girl who wouldn't watch the cartoons. Her number was 146. She was looking beyond the glass. She was staring out at us with a piercing gaze. There was still fight left in her eyes. There was still life left in this girl."

A Portrait of an Old Classmate annnnd I finally jailbroke my Tablet so now I have Android 4.0. I was doodling in sketchbook pro last night and below is what occurred from it. I'm kind of impressed with myself right now because it is more difficult to draw on it than I was anticipating, but after a while you kind of pick up the knack of it.

The Lines and Digitally Colored Doodle I did waiting for my meeting with my Art History teacher about my Final Paper for his class... which -by the way- is about World War II United  States Army Foot soldier uniforms and their evolution from fancy useless things to practical garments .... I don't know about you but I'm super excited lol

Instead of talking more about my obsession with World War II garb I shall detour with a pencil sketch of a hot chick and an experimental painting I did in Illustration  Painting B last Thursday, enjoy your distraction :)
