Mountain Dew, Still Life.

still rockin' the gouache paint for my illustration class. (however, it is "required" to "rock" the gouache, but i'm having fun with it)

assignment: set up a still life that illustrates a healthy, or bad diet.
i sorta went for a "both" kind of approach. something like that. done in gouache paint..

"Mountain Dew, Still Life"

AAAAAAAND, i colored this picture i did for a good, turtle obsessed friend. fun stuff.

"Turtle POWER"

i once had a turlte... named him "Koopa." after a while it just seemed like the guy refused to eat, and didn't eat for like, 4 months until he died. i REALLY wanted his turtle shell, because that would be a very sweet artifact to possess, and could get kid out of many a tight situation if ever cornered by a goomba, or one of the infamous hammer brothers.

anyways.. i forgot the exact spot where i barried my turtle, and would have to ruin a lot of grass to do it now. no turtle shell as of yet.

moral of the story: eat all your food, or i'll kill you? and stuff your body in a hole behind my house. yeah.... something like that.

oh-found this guy on youtube that apparently can memorise landscapes and redraw them from memory, in a 360 panaromic view. here he is doing tokyo.

fun stuff...
