Goat-Tee

I created this for the Youth Art Contest where the theme was Western Lifestyle. I didn't have as much time to have worked on this as I would have liked to, but I am happy with the results. Oil pastels and acrylic.

Fluorescent Lights

Recently I have been playing around with ball point pen and have really enjoyed it. So I decided to draw one of the old building where I live. Ball point pen, colored pencils, and textile paper with water and acrylic smudging it.

Pretend to Pray

Stopped into a church 
I passed along the way
 well, I got down on my knees
and I pretended to pray

—California Dreamin' by the Mamas & The Papas

I decided to do this acrylic painting based on this verse of "California Dreamin'". These lines are my favorite in the whole song so I wanted to capture them in my painting.

For this piece I wanted to show that something can look perfect and happy from the outside but if you look carefully it may not be. This is a cyanotype with colored pencils over it.
