So, I finally got around to starting up the ubiquitous ‘art blog’.  Feels like a good time though, with the rest of the summer ahead of me.  Hopefully it’ll help keep me focused on completing some projects and not just randomly doodling all summer.

I figured I’d start off with one of the last things I did in my junior year.  It’s an illustration loosely based on the poem “La Belle Dame Sans Merci” by John Keats, which you can read here: http://www.bartleby.com/126/55.html if interested.  Don’t know if I’m done with it yet, I’m contemplating spray-fixing it and layering light acrylic washes over it, but we’ll see.

p.s.  the blog appearance is kinda shoddy right now, will update it later.
