The following are samples from my previous work, aka "not what I'm currently working on." I may add more as I find them.

Acrylic paint, 2015 |
Some projects I do without guide or picture, simply as a means to play around and relieve stress. Some turn out quite alright, but then again it's difficult to mess up astronomical views. I may or may not have been watching a lot of Doctor Who when I drew this one.

"Relativity" acrylic paint, 2016 Western Washington State Fair entry |
This picture wins for most number of people confused. No, it's not hanging upside down. I was thinking about astronomy and how up and down are relative directions and a quote I read along the lines of "when we look up at night we are really looking down into an infinite abyss" and ended up drawing this. But boy, did I have to explain that a lot. Really, it's supposed to be like that.

Even more swirly space stuff! Acrylic, God knows when, I've had this for ages. |
This may have been one of the first times I drew space in acrylic paint. It's fun.

Acrylic paint, appx. 2010-2012. |
Based off of a picture (again) of my sister, this time on Iron Goat trail in the Cascades. Honestly though, this painting was kind of doomed from the beginning. First off, there's a lot of detail in the picture, and paint isn't so good at detail. Also, I wasn't very practiced yet. By the time I was finished I was so frustrated with it that I didn't even want to look at it. So when I took it home from school I just put it in the backseat. Later that day, I forgot it was still there, and threw my entire textbook filled backpack on it and broke the thing in half. I think at that point I pretty much just gave up.
