This school semester I am taking another mandatory drawing class. Within the first couple classes I knew this was going to be a good class. I am very inspired by both the professor and my other classmates. We are studying animals and how to go from a real detailed figure, to a simplistic logo. This is the first out of a series of sketches. It feels good getting back into the motion of drawing.
I went to the bahamas about a month ago, there I seen some cool things all made with Coca Cola cans. Ever since then I have been curious to as how they made it. So I saved up a few cans and began to experiment. I wanted to start off small, and make something relatively simple. I chose to make a camera.
Today there was no drawing class, our assignment was to go downtown to the art museum. Great class.
I met this guy in Drawing I. Today we turned in the first project, and I was very impressed by his work. The topic for this was 2012, and it was to be done on a 24 x 24 piece of masonry board with oil pastels. Here is Camilo Molina’s interpretation.

On Saturday night I went down to see the Neon Forest Gallery. The mixture of good artwork and music, spun by DJ CUB, brought together in a creative space, just gives you a feel good vibe. It was a nice experience, and I will be definitely going back soon.
My lovely mother is a pastry chef. No proper schooling, no fancy degree, nothing. Just raw talent, and hours of practice. I’d like to think that I inherited her creative and persistent qualitys. Like most hispanic mothers, in the works of Celia Cruz, her “English isn’t too very good looking.” My mother never let that stop her though. Without my mother there would be no Kasa De Kriz. So this is a little dedication to her.
