Painting
The Old Fashioned Way
Commission - Age 16
Acrylic and ink on cardstock
I made this for my first boyfriend, who was writing a story. The armor was based off of one he had in a Final Fantasy game that he played at the time. The hair was based off of Yuna from Final Fantasy X.
Hydrangea - Age 16
Watercolor on paper
Sneakers - Age 17
Acrylic on paper
The assignment was to use one color (plus black and white) to paint something in the room. I took off my sneakers and just started painting them.
Ocean - Age 16
Acrylic on canvas
This painting is of an island locally referred to as "Chinaman's Hat" in Hawaii. I got to see the area when my grandpa was showing me where he was stationed when my Dad was born.
Sora - Age 16
Acrylic on paper
This painting is in one of my sketchbooks, and really what happened was I was painting something else and had a bunch of extra yellow left over. So I used it on top of a sketch.
Yuri's Painting - Age 16
Acrylic on Canvas
I made a painting for my friend Yuri, who was an exchange student from Japan. We often passed notes to each other and exchanged little gifts, I think she's very sweet and I hope she's doing well right now.
Apple Blossom - Age 16
Watercolor on paper
I was painting the apple blossoms in my neighborhood from the backyard. I was just starting to dip my toe into the idea of layering watercolor layers.
