Got Featured on Audience Awards!

I'm excited to announce that I got featured on Audience Awards in the filmmaker spotlight! Check out my interview here!

Headddssssss!!

This semester, I'm taking a head painting class, and it has been so exciting! Just started two weeks ago, but I'm learning so much!! This is my first official head painting class, which is funny, because I love painting and drawing heads, and haven't gotten to take a class until now.

 Here are some paintings I did so far! The first couple of the guy are of my boyfriend which was for practice, and the last one is from the second day of class, first time we got to paint.

close up of head portrait of boyfriend- painted this one from an iPhone! super tough.

painted him reading the next day- he kept moving so it was kind of hard!

first head painting class- taken in artificial light

then natural light- blows my mind how different they look

gray scaled it just for fun to see how the values were working... ehh!

Pastel Sketch of the Yellow Mountains

did this in gross yellow lighting, so the color might be a bit off, but decided to do a little study yesterday night.  Super fun to do while listening to awesome R&B music :)

More pastels over break!

Some more pastels over break! Exciting thing was that I sold one of them on the spot while sketching at La Jolla Cove!

At La Jolla- sold this one! :D

Art Center- SO windy!

Griffith Observatory- meh

Film Studies from Amélie!

Sorry for the lack of updates! Been driving back and forth from LA to home and vice versa to spend time with family and what not, but its back to work!

Got some New Years resolutions set in stone for me, most of it which consist of drawing and sketching EVERY day! In particular, I really want to do more film studies- I find they really help one with composition and learning to simplify while getting readability.

Thought I'd post some that I did from one of my FAVORITE movies, Amélie!! Did a session with friends, which turned out horrible, then pushed my self to do more over a few more sessions.  Getting quicker already.  Plan to do a little hopefully every night!

Sorry for not updating!!

Hi! Sorry for being such a pooper for not updating- been drawing a lot, just haven't had time to update! Will do that soon :)

Meanwhile, you can check out my instagram at @tiffiemangoes for more art! I update that much more consistently!

Best,
Tiff
