Cisco's+Artsy-Fartsy+Schtuff

[|http://oswego.patch.com/articles/two-oswego-high-school-students-received-national-scholastic-awards#photo-11392546] This will be the page for all of Franny's work [franny meaning here the affectionate nickname for Francisco by the Ap Studio kids, originated from the noteworthy Savannah Jubic, OHS graduate, and adopted by every other studio kid, so I'm using it here as a testament to that part of my identity and past]. I will upload my whole concentration from junior year, as well as artwork such as breadth or other in-class projects, and stuff from this year, so members can give their criticisms and comments about them so we can have an art-side to this whole intellectual shebang we have going here. I do believe there is one discussion area per page, you can probably find it real easy, feel free to use it. Just remeber to follow the General Guidelines. This is mycritically-acclaimed Monkey. Shows a little bit of my macabre nature [and his, too]. This is one of my early Breadth drawings. It was experimental, since I was trying out various stippling and hatching methods. Obviously unfinished, but oh well. At least I got the A. 4"*5"

This is a rendering of a Lego spaceman I had. It was also an experiment, and it proved a successful combination of stippling and hatching. 4"*5"

A drawing of one of the two oldest Transformers I have. It's still in good condition, and I did this with mostly inkwash. Most people prefer Optimus Prime in firetruck mode as opposed to Ultra Magnus below, becasue of the red. People are strange in that sense.

Here is the Ultra Magnus I just spoke of. Good contrast of blue against the Prime red. Also mostly inkwash. Both Transformers are from the Robots in Disguise series. As toys, they can combine into Omega Prime, which I unfortunately didn't have the time to draw. He's awesome, just so you know. This is the piece that won the most kudos. It's one of my favorites, too. It's titled "Nostalgia".

This particular pen and ink is larger than the others, and the second after the original Lego Star Wars drawing, Nostalgia. Thisis a different view of my Star Destroyer, with a little color thrown in.Nostalgia #2. Wasn't as well received [above]. You can either call it a victory or tragedy. Either one can apply. While the black-and-white naute of my concentration is apparent, it becomes lost against the background and over-use of color. Note how on the lower edges I incorporated a few of the Studio pals I had, in Lego form. For some reason, that little idea didn't make it into other concentration pieces. Shame on me[below].

This was the last of my concentration, a half-assed job that still got points. Go art! My personal favorite of my concentration, asides from Nostalgia, the good ole original. I actually spent more than 6 hours on this one and [spolier alert] the Gate-Keeper helped out on the painful stippling in the northern background region. Go teamwork! One of my summer projects, unfinished, a sketch. However, I made it look so that it seems like a true drawing. I like it, now that I think about it. White Colored Pencil. This is the finished version of my rendering of my Sentinel Prime. Most of the stippling in the final cut is my doing. Again, I owe Waldo a big one, since he did the fine, primary stippling. I did the secondary stippling. Pen and Ink. According to Mr. Skura, it still has last year's style. That doesn't mean it's bad thoughXP My pride and joy, which I did all of it [no Warden involved this time]. Mr. Skura said I was on to something technique and maybe subject-matter-wise with this pen and ink. I loves it!:]
