Mr. Hyde Concepts

For Illustrator's Heritage, we're going to be creating a black and white linear illustration for either Dracula or the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I've picked the latter tale, and although I'm not really thinking in terms of setting yet, these are two sketches of Mr. Hyde. The top is a Kevin O'Neill influenced crazed zombie-ape-man type, while the bottom is a horrible scientific experiment gone wrong in the form of a featureless killing machine a-la McFarlane's Creech.

Anthropologie

Sketchin' the displays at Anthropologie in Chelsea Market.

Has to do with something you I guess you had to be there for?

Frankenstump.

This stump is so tall, you wonder why they cut down part of it at all. Also, there is a fuse box or something on it with some outlets. Dunno why, or why they picked a tree.
Also, as of about a week ago, five pieces of mine are hanging up in a Starbucks in Westfield. It's not much, but I suppose it still counts as my first exhibition independent of a school. I didn't get anything good enough done to have any new work hanging up, but my mom was very adamant about actually betting if I'd get some real painting done before the end of the Summer, so there's still a chance I'll get something in color done before school's back on.

Errands

This morning I had to go into the city to drop off something for my sister. Waking up early and begrudgingly accepting the errand wasn't all bad; I got to run to the Museum of Natural History for a bit, which seemed monstrously crowded for a Monday afternoon. I had time for these sketches and a stroll before I had to return home (and before the crowds got to me). Yes children, people enjoy drawing. No parents, that is not a "Buffalo," it is a Musk Ox. It says so right there.
Anyway...
In other news, I was looking for straight razors in the basement and stumbled upon my grandfather's old Nikon F2, along with several zoom and macro lenses, a motor drive, three electronic flashes, a few filters, and a "Pocket Guide to Practical Photography." Considering I had foolishly forgotten he had even given it to me, it was quite a pleasant surprise, and I'm going to see if I can snap anything of worth with it.

Seafarin'

On top is a boat in Montauk, I couldn't read the name, but I think it said "Jason & Danielle." The bottom is a rental sailboat from the Lavallette Yacht Club at the Jersey shore.

Things about town.

Summertime is the best time.
