Francis of Assisi Limerick

I just learned about the patron saint of animals on the radio and felt compelled to write a limerick about him.


There once was a man from Assisi
who loved every animal speci.
They didn't have souls,
but still they had holes,
so he fed them and cleaned up their fece!

Sketches

The likeness on this one is not quite where I'd want it, but I like how the shapes fit together nice. I think I won't be 100% happy with a likeness of Aida unless I include the nostrils somehow.

I'm pretty happy with my likeness in this lil sketch. It is from a photo though.

This Is

This is a wonderful spot called La Jolla cove. A spectacular sunset is extra spectacular here. If you are ever visiting San Diego you must go here even if there's not a spectacular sunset taking place but especially if there is a spectacular sunset taking place. And I forgot to tell you, make sure you wear your emo pants like the two Asians here pictured at left.
This is a very talented artist by the name of Touvou. He is from San Diego and worked doing caricatures at the Zoo and SeaWorld for a while. Now he mostly focuses on Landscape but he also has some comic book stuff.
This is just some lady. Her hand didn't actually look deformed. I was just trying to capture her proportions and pose before she shifted her weight to the other leg.

Three Profiles: Convex, Concave, and Cylindrical

This is a common white person face. You got your pointy nose, your skinny lips where the top lip protrudes out further than the bottom.

This is a black person's face and its pattern is fairly typical. The bottom lip and jaw comes forward. The nose is short in profile and pushed up into the head, for lack of a more eloquent way of saying it, and the forehead is very dome-ish.

I don't know what to say about this guy. He's a white guy who seems to have a case of the awesomelookins.

Dunk

Look at that expression on his face? That's how I'm gonna feel when I dunk for the first time.

Sketchy Acrylic Sketchys

These are all sketchy acrylic sketches which I don't intend on finishing. They were all done around, oh, I'd say maybe...I guess about two years ago. Right up there we see Nate Kapnicky and Kev Jackson playin Halo or something. Those were some good times, Lil Woo, huh? Yeah. Those were good times. Lil Woo tell you all about it. Back when Halo was whats good and beastin it meant more than meeting your stands goal. Back when a warm cup of cocoa and a good conversation was all it took to bring the kin folk round the fire place. Lil Woo tell you all about it. Next.

This is a quick one I threw down and didn't think I was gonna post, but here I'm postin it. So don't say I don't never do nothing for you. I like it a little bit cuz I feel the space. Its the view from behind my front screen door on a rainy day in San Diego which is a rare occasion, like a... like a donkey eating a sandwich or something.

Matt Damon's likeness was really frustrating the applesauce out of me so I was trying to copy a photo of him as close as I could to get some real insight. I got one of them nostrils a little too low. That's what he gets for ragging on Sarah Palin. Dirty orange hippy.
