Thanksgiving Preview of Student 3

I love Thanksgiving, so I'm celebrating with a preview. It's upside down, but I can't show what it's really going to look like yet.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Process for Student 2 Painting

He's not especially happy that I picked pinks and purples for his skin tone, but I like to use arbitrary colors in my paintings.

Process for Student 1 Painting

Painting of Student 1

I did my students' assignment with them last year. This student was not in my class, but he asked me to paint him.

Digital Self-Portrait

I have done this type of artwork a couple of other times for Illustration Friday topics. (Oct. 29, 2008, March 21, 2008, and March 31, 2008)  

I decided to resurrect this assignment for my students, and therefore practice it myself. I think I need to add some shading underneath my body yet, so maybe I'll be fixing it and reposting later.
