You can get it on EBAY!

This weekend I finally decided enough was enough--I HAD to get some freaking DJ equipment before school started or I was going to explode! I have been bidding like crazy on Ebay for all the equipment I'll need, and the prices are really reasonable.
I also bought a ton of new records, including some from Pendulum, London Elektricity, and Klute.

While on the subject of Ebay, I am selling four pieces of my artwork--three drawings and a sculpture--in a few auctions! Please feel free to check it out! Search 'Jessica Taylor' and you should find all four. Better get them cheap now before I'm famous ;)!




Here are some more figure drawings from last Tuesday. Drawing was difficult again due to the lack of decent lighting.



Here is a drawing I did in Mike Manley's figure drawing class at DCAD. I decided to clean up the pencils and I'm going to finish it this week and ink it.
I bought a copy of "The Art of Comic Book Inking" and it has helped me understand
the inking process better.

More Summer Figure Drawings

Here are more figure drawings from Tuesday's drawing session. I tried more challenging poses this time.






These 20 minute poses were tough, so I didn't have the chance to fill in everything in the drawings. I'm still not happy with my work; something about it looks unattractive for some reason.

I missed Saturday's painting to go to Providence, RI with my parents. They hadn't seen the campus, and I hadn't seen the dorms I will be staying in, yet. Everything was very nice, and I'm glad my dorm is more apartment-style than traditional barracks-style!

Summer Figure Drawings

Here is some work I have been doing over the summer. I have been attending an open figure drawing session every Wednesday for the past few weeks, and I think its starting to show in my drawings. It would be nice if the sessions were held three times a week instead of one.






Hopefully I will get to try my hand at painting this Saturday!
