Sarah Ihrke: February 2010
http://sarahihrke.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 27, 2010. Okay, I did it! Well, I said I was going to do it, so here it is, finally! These are my paper dolls all put together. See my previous posts for the pattern and illustration that go along with each! Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Just a game of cat and mouse. Here is my next project for senior studio. I've moved up from traditional paper dolls to 3-D paper toys [the new generation of the paper doll]. Tuesday, February 9, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Okay, I did it!

Sarah Ihrke: August 2010
http://sarahihrke.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. Exercising my art brain. Chad's parents just moved into a new house, and they've asked me to make a painting for their kitchen! So they sent me a picture of a painting that they wanted me to use as reference. I figured this was a good opportunity to exercise my reference copying skills and get a little bit more comfortable using oils. This is only my second time. Here's what I've got so far.

Sarah Ihrke: November 2009
http://sarahihrke.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Book cover pin.up. Here's my book cover! I did it in gouache and then scanned it into photoshop :). Saturday, November 21, 2009. For Dave's class we're ordering a sample sigg bottle with our art on it as a potential promotional item. This is great because I really need one anyway, and this is an awesome excuse to get one and display my art at the same time! So what better to have on a sigg bottle for myself than.A FROG! Here's what I came up with. Monday, November 9, 2009.

Sarah Ihrke: January 2010
http://sarahihrke.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 23, 2010. The beginning of the end. My very last semester at CCS is in full swing. It's kind of intimidating to think that in another 4 months I will be graduated, and officially a professional illustrator! Well, for now, here is the beginning of my first assignment for senior studio. I still have to scan it in to photoshop and finish it up, but here it is for now! I'll update with more pics when it's finished! Friday, January 15, 2010. I did this for my welcome page :).

Tuesday, March 16, 2010. After our critique on this project we only technically have two projects left before the end of the semester! I have business cards and image sample booklets on their way so I can start sending them out to potential clients. The end of my last semester here at CCS is quickly approaching.only two more months and I'll be a graduated, professional artist! Anyhoo, here's what I just finished for Senior Studio. Slow Joe is tired of being slow, so he gets roller blades :).

Sarah Ihrke: October 2009
http://sarahihrke.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 11, 2009. Dreams do come true. I've always wanted to be a pin.up girl, so when my friend Matt Bisset needed some pin.up reference I volunteered to model for him for a couple shots. It was fun! The pictures turned out pretty nice too! Here's a couple of the images Matt took of me :). Friday, October 9, 2009. Keep on keepin' on! Friday, October 2, 2009. I'm not done cold working it yet, so consider it another work in progress. The bottom reminds me of a head of lettuce or something.

Monday, December 13, 2010. It's been quite a while since I've updated! I finished this painting a long time ago and didn't ever post it. So here it is!
