Earth

There need to be more dreadlocks in Avatar...watching the episodes with Jet and I'm diggin' his crew
Gonna finish uploading the rest of the Avatar fan art from my Jam for my nigga Kat .I'm gonna do em in order of the title sequence so, next will be "Fire" .
The girl on the bottom(with the bottom) in my mind, has the spunk and bending capacity of Toph, Sensuality of Katara but none of the whining and the sarcastic tone of Mai...I'm such a nerd for this show.Critiques are welcomed.Enjoy .

Summertime





Before I blab I need to thank my big sister Lettie and Boyfriend Adam for showing me the amazing song that lead to these paintings(Summertime-Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong) and pushing for me to do it =). Its The two artists playing for a small audience in the back i put in my sister and her boyfriend and the shadow on the curtain is George Gershwins silhouette -the composer of the song who never got to hear their version .
Been really into drawing "jazzy" people and artists lately, the last one is from a photograph I saw on the sartorialist a while back .Critiques are welcome .Enjoy.
