Bathroom Baby Dangers-Final Assignment, 3 Figures, full value and volume
Final Portfolio-Final Project
For part of our final we had to create a portfolio-book from scratch. These are the images to be used in the portfolio-book. With all the swimsuit and au natural models I wanted to create a location where they would feel at home. So I choose the Mandalay Bay's adult "European style" swimming experience in Las Vegas. My wife and I visited Las Vegas for our 2nd anniversary and Mandalay Bay was my favorite location. I loved the Shark Reef! It was the highlight of the trip for me. I remembered their 'open' pool and thought it would be the perfect setting for the class models. After all, after a hard semester of working I thought they could use a vacation!
What I liked was that my sweetheart Donna said they looked like statues. If you've ever been to Vegas that is just the sort of thing you might see there, too. :-)

Distracted-Assignment 3, The Figure, full value & volume
Seeing Athena-Assignment 2, Line Drawing
I felt bad that I wanted to soften up the background on this one but ran out of time. Often times my homework takes me past the midnight hours and I then have to choose between the perfection I'm looking for or staying awake at work.
I'm grateful for Photoshop. I was able to go back in and soften up the background a few nights ago like I wanted to originally.

Final Value Drawings
I was severely humbled after completing these full volume and value projects compared to my beginning line drawings. Wow... I obviously had a lot to learn. I'm just glad I did - the quality of my work has skyrocketed! The old Masters were right, there really is so much to be learned from drawing from live, au naturral subjects. I'm excited to start applying these new techniques to my characters and projects.
With how these turned out and how much I've learned I can tell that I've had some very important spiritual help! Thank you, Heavenly Father, for allowing me to learn these great techniques!
If there is one thing I've learned - is that if it is important to us then it's important to Him. That's how much He loves us! And these pictures are proof that He wants us to succeed.
