The Lord Of The Flies


I'm not gonna act like I'm big on books cuz I don't read nearly as often as I should ,but in High school ,one book that stuck was William Goldings "Lord Of the Flies".I remember it being terrifying in some areas not because of the imagery per say but the characters got really dark as the story progressed .No spoilers but i always doodled them in my textbooks -stayed up to do quick sketches of em' .Go read the book! Or check it out on Sparksnotes at least lol.Oh and I'm gonna stop these random 'floaty' character sketches haha I have too many! more layout :).Enjoy

My first sculpture


I made my very first sculpture this week. It turned out to be THE most therapeutic thing I have EVER done (I was also listening to Sade and The XX at the time but that irrelevant) . Spent about 3.5 to 4 hours on it ,I've been told he looks like Steve Beuschemi, Gollum and ,Willem Dafoes love child. Definitely gonna be doing more.Also, photo-credit to my buddy Matthew Patrick Sherren :).Enjoy

WHAM!


Sketch that I took way too far. The usual suspects L-R: Freddy,Myself,Adam + Ollie. I was gonna be Storm instead of Green Lantern but it didn't come across that I was a dude BEING Storm lol so just imagine it! Also ,I hate the colors but eh'. Enjoy
