Sketchism

I decided to skip my psychology class this morning in order to catch up on more important matters: rest. I was running on fumes yesterday due to the insane illustration homework assignment I was working on the night before. My professor dilberately gave us 2 days to finish 3 color comps (hand painted mock-ups) of our latest illustration. Boy was that stressful. He wanted us to feel the stress of the “deadly deadline” and we felt it. But now all is well.

Today I get to print my first photos. I already printed 2 contact sheets that are amazing. Shooting black and white photos is definitely a passion of mine. It would be great for me to start a series on the things I experience daily, especially the martial arts stuff. Speaking of which… I’ll be attending the Straight Blast Gym Fall Camp on Halloween weekend absolutely FREE! This means I get to roll around with some of the biggest names in Jiu Jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts, including Matt Thornton. How’d I get such a deal, you ask? Well I designed the t-shirt for the event. Bam. Simple. Once the shirt goes to print I’ll post an image of it. I didn’t add the lettering, so I’m a little nervous on how it will look in the end. What matters most is that it was a great barter for me.

I have a few other projects lining up soon, all of which I’m excited to be a part of. Details to come. I gotta run to class now.
