"So, Star, what have you been up to?"

[Star]

Thank you so much for those references. And well..I only used the vanishing point on the actual background. I wasn't sure on how to use it for the characters. I'll be sure to look out for those books, I looked a while back and they didn't have them. Might just get them from Amazon lol

Also, about the Louisiana painting..I just wanted to let you guys know that I did indeed win the contest. To be honest, I was surprised. I was very overwhelmed. You can check it here: http://georgerodriguefoundation.org/
I've never won an achievement like this in my life. The guy with the hugest smile ever on his face is me lol It helped get my name out and now I'm doing more commissions than ever before. It also impressed the college that I'm going to in the fall, McNeese, and I'm now one of their official artists.

Which leads me to this painting.
http://yfrog.com/euimg0777uj The writing center personally asked me to paint on one of their ceiling tiles. I'll describe the picture..at the bottom is me thinking and there will be a colorful smoke emerging from my head where some of my latest creations will come out. As well as some of my old ones remade(anyone remember Big Bella?) and three cameos of certain characters that I use to obsessively draw when I was young. : D It also gives out different meanings like: The rose is to show I like to paint flowers, the tiger is to show I like to paint wildlife, the dragon is to show I like to paint fantasy, etc. As for Mario, Kirby, and Wario..they're just to show that I'm a gamer haha.

And I know, this topic is old. But as long as I update, it's okay right? : P
