Concert project, Twin Vultures, the birds are supposed to be Egyptian vultures, one of my favorite birds, i like this bird because vultures are such a miss understood animal, the song I was given had contradicting sounds to me but it blended together that made me think of yen and yang. I drew one vulture then used tracing paper and glued it to the other end of the page, and painted over it with black and white acrylic paint.  

What Inspires Me,  nature, plants and animals, inspire me. Ever since I was little I watched a lot of animal shows and I was always outside catching lizards and bugs. A lot of people are afraid of snakes, but I think they are a beautiful and amazing animal, not a lot of animals can get around without their limbs, snakes don't attack you because they are mean or evil but because they're afraid of you and when you kill a snake it's because you are afraid of it. This snake is a green mamba I drew it in pencil, went over that in pen, and then water colors.

My color project, my favorite colors are green and blue, more green, green represents nature which has  always been my main inspiration, also the colors green and blue are mellow and calming and I think of myself as being calm also, the bird is a secretary bird, it's normally grey but that wouldn't have been as colorful so I made it blue. The secretary bird is one of my favorite birds, the name comes from those feathers on the back of the head which look like the quill pens people used to write with.

My whale, I was going for a colorful stain glass window look, I got the idea from one of Will Ribar's  band projects
