Spring 2014 Drawings


Mapping from my memory

A scene from the book Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Michaelson. This is Cole's evil father who drinks too much and hit Cole with his belt. That's his mother Cindy crying.

This is Edwin from Touching Spirit Bear. When Cole is banished to an island in Southeast Alaska he learns to carve a totem. On the island he learns many lessons.

On the left we see an old barn burning and on the right it is a nice hotel so the same characters is rushing to save the grand piano. Crazy huh?
A surrealistic collage of a drawing with some of the themes from Spirit Bear.

Mythical Bearded Harpie with crazy hair.

In San Francisco I was studying a book I bought about Disney films at the Walt Disney Family Museum.
It was then that I noticed that Stromboli and Tony Mozzarella were either the same person or identical twins.
I think the original animator was having some fun with us.

I like the way my drawing on the back shows through to the front. It's almost like This bird is
the spirit of a wise bearded man with a mustache.

Touching Spirit Bear Drawings


















































In Ms. Jennifer's class we read the book Touching Spirit Bear by Ben Mikaelsen.
During Winter vacation I did lots of drawings and some of them I didn't finish. I wanted to show these that I created about Cole and the other characters. I made a whole bunch of drawings using software called Paper but these drawings were made the old fashioned way with pencil on paper.
