More Photography

Hey guys. I got some more photos of Ireland for you today. I also just did a bunch of sketches for an Industrial Design project, and they turned out pretty cool too. I'll try to get some photos up some. I've also just generally been doing some pretty crazy sketches in my free time lately. Good stuff. Anyway here are some photos from a hike in the burren.

road

Cool road in Ballyvaughan. Some good movement in the photo.

traveling

I love power-lines. Totally under-appreciated

The wall

This wall was near the top of this huge mountain me and some friends hiked up. The photo doesn't capture it, but the wind was crazy up there. We could barely hear each other.

The only snail in Ireland

Interesting fact: this is actually the only snail in the whole of Ireland. It's crazy how we just ran into him. Usually you have to set up an appointment, and it can get pricey too.

tree

I like this photo.

I also like this photo, but it's a bit "I just got into photography." I still like something about it though. Thanks for reading. I'll be back soon.

Art Update and Ireland

Hey sorry it's been a while. I'm currently studying abroad in Ireland, which has made it really hard to find time to sketch. Another big problem had been that even if I do sketch, I don't have a reliable way to scan it in. Because of the current situation, I've decided to start posting the coolest photos from my trip onto this blog. More on that later, for now, enjoy this quick ink drawing I did before I left.

...

Pretty cool, bit creepy. I've also been keeping an Illustrated Journal on my trip, However, since it's more of a personal thing, I won't be posting it on this blog, although some of the illustrations might pop up on here occasionally. Obviously all of this has been cutting into my time to be creative, but rest assured that a lot of my experiences here are inspiring me to grow as a visual artist and as a person. For now, here are some photos:

Stairway ( Christ Church in Dublin)

Here are some cool overexposed stairs in Christ Church in Dublin. It's got some cool photos and textures to it.

Mountain Landscape

Here's a cool shot from a mountain hike in the Burren. It really is a beautiful place. Photos don't capture what it's like being there.

Forest

Some friends taking a selfie in a magical forest. Pretty self explanatory.

Mountain hike

Mountain hike II

Two shots of my friend Bailey hiking a mountain. I like the second one better, but they're both pretty cool.

Street Art, Dublin

Dublin street art. Pretty sure that mermaid has been dead awhile. Alright well, thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed the photography, and I'll be back with some more soon.
