Grasshopper 3D model in Maya 2009

This is the Grasshopper I've modeled in Maya 2009 as part of the "3D Design Theory 1: Planning and concept development" class at Billy Blue. To be honest, this is my first digital modeling project, but I am very happy with the result. I used to do ceramics in High School and I noticed that I had quite the talent for it, but I couldn't figure out how I would make a profession out of it.

Maybe this is the answer...pixel-clay of 3D modeling...

Life Drawing at COFA

Last semester I took my first Life Drawing course at COFA. The instructor was Stavros Papantoniou, and believe me, this guy can teach!

I didn't actually know what Life Drawing meant, but I knew that I wanted to learn realistic drawing, so "life drawing" sounded about right.

I did improve my drawing, but in the class I've discovered something else. A great appreciation for human body and amazing magic of the human form. I've understood what people mean by "the line" and the word that was in my mind during drawing was lyrical. Lyrical design, lyrical shape, poetic line.
