Picasso Kenny

This is what a Picasso would look like if he had less skill and used alot more color and drew it kinda cartoonie and used pastels.

Cubbies are making me sad.

2006-05-06T01:19:00.000-05:00

O.K., I know it's only May, BUT... what is the deal with the CUBS!?!?! They're not hitting at all! And it's making me so sad. I drew this picture, it's me, I'm just gonna join the Cubs and help them out. I mean, no one else on the team is hitting, so I can't be any worse. However, I always have hope in my Cubbies and they're gonna pull out of this funk.

I hope...

Brian

2006-05-06T01:16:00.000-05:00

My friend Brian. He's one crazy kid. He gets into alot of trouble, and does alot of insane things, but for some strange reason, he's still alive!!! I hope he likes this drawing, cuz it's taken me soooooo long to draw one of him.

FAT

2006-05-05T14:33:00.000-05:00

This is how I feel after "cheap wing day" at Buffalo Wild Wings. Me and my friends eat there every Tuesday and usually end up eating more than we should.

I'd like to also say "CONGRATULATIONS!" to my friends Brian and Eric for successfully doing the Blazin Challenge, 12 of the hottest wings in 6 minutes, and getting their pictures put up on the wall. Way to go guys!!!

ALLIE

2006-05-04T23:35:00.000-05:00

Allie just went to PROM! So I used pictures of her, in her prom dress as a model for my drawing. She had her hair in the usual up-doo and she wore a pink prom dress. She looked really perrrrrrrrrty. And she even looks perty "under the sea".

ROBOT

2006-04-25T23:47:00.000-05:00

I once had this great idea to build a robot that would pick up girls for me... unfortunately, it back-fired.

I hope they're happy together.

SPOTTED

2006-04-15T00:32:00.000-05:00

Second grade chicken pox... soooooooooo itchy!!!

All I remember is alot of time soaking in the bathtub and putting socks on my hands so that I wouldn't scratch.

SPEED 2

2006-04-13T14:24:00.000-05:00

This afternoon... I decided this DragonBall (?) drawing needed some color.

My friend that I drew this of, likes that he has that lil belly.

Colored pencil, my favorite tool.

SPEED

2006-04-12T23:42:00.000-05:00

I drew this rather quickly... my friend wanted me to draw him in some kind of DragonBall pose..... (I have no idea), he showed me a video and I drew. I don't know what this DragonBall is, but I think I remember, maybe, seeing an episode, but all I remember about it was that this guy was running through the whole episode and it made completely no sense.

PIG

2006-04-01T01:22:00.000-06:00

Look at this big, fat, pig. I'm sure one day he was surrrrrrrre delicious!!!

This was a print making project, where you draw what you want to print with Elmer's glue on a heavy cardboard paper and let it dry. Then you roll a printers ink/paint over it and press a sheet of paper onto it, to make copies. I ,however, didn't like the copies as much as how the original turned out.

Clay Shapes

2006-04-01T01:20:00.000-06:00

When I'm not drawing apples I'm drawing a bunch of clay shapes all piled up.
I think everyone has to draw something like this whenever they take an art class. A bunch of basic shapes to show how light effects them and how one would simulate that lighting effect while drawing.

APPLES

2006-04-01T01:07:00.000-06:00

I did a whole mess of art projects with the subject of apples for a design class. Got kinda sick of lookin at apples after a while. I think this was my best one. Other than this, I also did one in color, one with cut paper (black and white), and a whole mess of sketches.

SPRING

2006-03-31T16:18:00.000-06:00

With spring comes warmer weather,
No longer will I freeze.
With warm air comes blooming flowers,
And leaves appear on trees.
The grass turns green and starts to grow,
But so do all those weeds.
Slumbering animals and bugs awaken,
Like squirrels and birds and bees.
Who spread about the pollen
And now I start to sneeze!
My eyes are red and puffy
And I find it hard to see.
My asthma’s acting up
As my breath begins to wheeze.
I puff from my inhaler
Because its getting hard to breathe.
My best friend this time of year
Is my box of Claritin Ds.
For you spring may be the greatest,
But its the opposite for me.
I cant wait for spring to end,
So that I can breathe with ease.
And get outside and finally enjoy
The warm air, flowers, and the trees.

Scream

2006-03-29T15:40:00.000-06:00

I painted this on a pillow case for my fabrics class. This isn't all thats on it, I also cut the lil scream guy into an eraser, made it into a stamper, and stamped the pillow opening border with a series of lil scream guys in different reds, orange, and yellows.

I also did the same exact thing with the Mona Lisa, all in a blue theme, painted on a pillow case, with lil stamped Mona Lisa on the pillow opening border.

TONY

2006-03-29T15:07:00.000-06:00

Tony would like to become a cop. I decided that I would up his dream and make him a U.S. Marshall.

Tony also works with me, he's a cool guy. I hope he stays that way when he becomes a cop. Ya know... let me off with a warning and such. Not that I would ever do anything that police would have to get involved. (shifty eyes)

Jackie and her man TJ

2006-03-28T00:23:00.000-06:00

Me and Jackie used to hang out sometimes. I dont see her that much (other then at work) now that shes dating TJ. But they're happy together so I'm happy for them. I sure do miss her tho... (tear)

Kelly

2006-03-28T00:21:00.000-06:00

This girl used to work with me. I never really understood her or got to know her that well, but she wanted me to draw a pic of her so I did. Actually she just wanted me to draw an angel, but thats pretty boring. So, I drew her as an angel. (everyone go "awwwwwwww")

ERIC

2006-03-28T00:19:00.000-06:00

Eric likes to play guitar. I don't really have any idea of how good he is at it, cuz I've never heard him play a complete song, but he always says he's playing it and playing new songs. So... I'm gonna take his word for it and say he's pretty good. I told him he should take his guitar playing down to the subway. He'd make so much money.

ME... ( I'm so cute when I'm sick )

2006-03-28T00:16:00.000-06:00

One day in a writing class...
I was sooooooooo sick. I kept coughing and coughing. The girl next to me told me to go die elsewhere, cuz I kept interupting the class. So, I drew this pic. I showed it to her and louder than my coughing, she goes "awwwwwwwwwwwwwww".

Eric's grandmas house. (as I remember it... ok.. the grass wasnt really that green and there weren't any leaves on the trees, and that little figure fishing, wasnt there. but Eric told me he fishes there)

done with super cheap temp paints, just for practice

MONSTER

2006-03-27T13:12:00.000-06:00

This poor lil monster woke from a bad dream, or maybe he thought there were humans under his bed. Either way he's rather upset. And NO... he's not flicking you off, he's rubbing his eye. GEESH!!!

done with only crayola crayon

sorry bout the blurrrrrrriness
