Experimentin'

Since I drew portraits of my family for Christmas I've been meaning to make more. I've been contemplating it for a while and I decided to draw them today. However, instead of just doing black and white I decided to use color this time.


This is Rachel Hazelbaker. This is Rachel Hazelbaker's portrait. In color.

I also wanted to do my own portrait. Therefor I did. I also documented the step by step process of the drawing as well.

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

Once I scanned them in I played with them a bit in Photoshop and in the process I inverted the color. It's kind of neat.


Well, at least I think they're neat.

The Real World Egypt

Oh Zahi Hawass, how I love thee. Even though this show seems incredibly scripted I still love it. Archaeology at its most dramatic.

I can't wait.
