Freshman Turnaround

 Freshman year was... a learning experience. I know for a fact that I became a lot better in different facets of my artwork; especially composition, value balancing, and color scheming. I think my Drawing II class taught me a lot about creating depth and organizing environments and got me into something that I otherwise wouldn't of cared about. (It got me really pumped for the GAD major in general, too.)

Some stuff I did in Drawing II.

I also really enjoyed my animation class. It helped me understand that I really enjoy doing looping animations-- or idle standing animation. (Which, conveniently, is animation typical of video games.)

 

                                                       It won't let me post these videos!

Overall, I wouldn't trade my experience for anything. However, I would never want to repeat that. Ever again. It was a painful year of learning, yet totally worth it.
