Scarfs

This green and blue scarf, is a scarf that my mother crochet about twenty seven years ago that I wear. The thing is when ask how she made it, she can't remember. I stare at it at times trying to figure it out how she made it. Hummmmmm.......

This was one of the first scarfs that I crochet. I started commuting to Chicago, and OMG the wind was to much for me so I decided to make a scarf, but I didn't know how to crochet so this was a good practice, but as you can see I missed a step some where and it curls into itself. Well I wore it to Chicago and it was not enough to keep the wind from coming through. :( But I figured out what material did and I started to make my scarfs with it.

Now this is the most current scarf that I have finished. It is really fuzzy, soft and warm. This one is knitted. I started to knit about a year ago and this is what I can do thus far. Hopefully I will improve and one day be able to make sweaters. :)

Blue Bag

LOL, I think that I finished this bag in record time. It took me about a week. A friend requested a bag and she also gave me the cloth that I used for the lining. I think it looks nice with the dark blue. Usually I use solid colors for the inside.

Red and Purple Bags

These bags were a Christmas gift for two of my friends. I was going to give the bags to them probably about two x-mas ago, but one thing or another kept coming up and I didn't finish them on time, BUT I FINALLY was able to finish them this year. LOL. Better late than never. ;)

Grey Scarf

This scarf took about three weeks more or less to make. It was made as a gift for a friend.


I had a friend model the scarf for a picture. ;)

Experiment

I was just experimenting with this. There are a few elements about it that I like others not so much.

Happy Holidays!!!

Witch

This year for the very first time in my life I dressed up for Halloween. I didn't have much time to go anywhere to buy a costume or materials to make one so I dressed in black and borrowed a cape and witche's hat. That inspired me to draw this drawing. I've also not had a lot of time to color the drawings that I have drawn to post. Hopefully with the holiday breaks coming along I will be able to post more. :)

Baby Girl & Boy

These are designs that I quickly did for a relatives Baby shower card. Didn't know if she was having a boy or girl so one side had the baby girl and the other the baby boy. I just had 30 min to make this card.

Manga Man

Well this image that I have posted took me a bit out of my comfort zone. I normally do not draw something with this sort of content. I drew this as a design for one of my friends birthday card. She loves to read manga and some of those happen to be romance or also known as SHOJO. So as a gag I drew this and showed her a rough of the drawing just to make sure that she would be alright with this type of card. I also showed it to other people and got mixed reactions. All good, I think, but anyways besides the content of the image I like how it came out and it did make people laugh or at least giggle. :) I hope that you all enjoy my current piece since I haven't posted anything for a few months now.

Today's Sketch

Well I have been keeping busy this past weeks and I haven't gotten much sleep. I drew this at work to pass time and not fall asleep. I might go back and fix somethings on it if I have time to.

Swirls

Small Hand Bags

Phew.... About a month ago or so, I was asked if I can make five bags within a month. The answer to that is NO!!!! But with in a month and a half yes!! At first it was just going to be three bags, which that might of been plausible, but than the request increase to FIVE bags. I was in a panic as the end of the month came around, but than I was told that I had until the 29th of this month. Now I am done and here are the finished products. Sorry about the quality of the pictures. I need to get a better camera.
I have problem with making the shoulder strap so my mom helps me by crocheting the straps on all of my bags. I am still learning and improving the method that I use to make them.

I don't use a sewing machine, so sewing the linings to the bags takes longer.

Green Scarf Part Two

Well I finished the green scarf about two weeks ago. I am happy to say that it has also found a new home. From what I was told, the person that it was given to was very happy to have it. It was a really soft scarf that took me about a month and a half to knit, since it was my first thing that I ever knitted I was very please of how it came out. LOL!!! In the same time I will miss it.

Green Scarf

Woohooo! My first knitted scarf. I still have to finish it, but it is getting there. In February I learn how to knit. I have been wanting to learn for a while. I was talking to one of my co-workers that knits and crochet. I was watching her knit one day and I said I want to learn how to knit and she said well why don't you, so I have. Hopefully I will learn to knit different styles and other things than just scarfs. LOL

Pink Bag

I started crocheting bags about three years or more ago and they have always been the same style, but this time around I decided to do a different style. I'll post some of my other bags later. This bag has white and pink yarn, and a very strong pink lining . I hand sowed the lining to the bag. I can't use a sowing machine for the life of me. My bobbing always gets tangled, my string breaks and so do my needles. :( So I stick to hand sowing my stuff.

Easter

Xochitl-Flower

I just flat shaded this model. I will later texture it, but it is the Aztec symbol for flower called Xochitl.

Teotihuacan Mask

Mask #1

Here is another mask that I worked on this weekend. I am realizing that I will have a lot of texturing to do once I get to it. It is quite daunting thinking of all the UV mapping that I will have to do.

Aztec Death and Rebirth Mask

This piece took me about a day and a half to model. A family member asked me if I could model this for them. It might become a pendant(jewelry). :D.
This is some information that I found about it. It says that it is Mayan, but I think that it is actually Aztec. I'm not a 100% sure.
Tikal, Mexico. 900 AD, Maya This Maya mask shows the different stages of life as part of a never ending cicle of human evolution through life and the afterlife as it was understood by the mayas. The mask has three layered faces, each representing one particular stage of life. The inner face represents the beginning of life at birth. The middle face is the most important one since it represents the adult stage when the person comes into his full potential and most of his life experiences happened. The outer or third face represents the end of earthly life. This sacred time was viewed by the Maya as the end of one cycle and the beginning of another one. Death was followed by lavish preparations for the next life.

Unfinished Toltec Worrier

I started this model in mid-December and I still have to finish it. It is taking longer than what I thought because of all the details that I am putting into it. After I am done I will texture it and composite it into a scene.
