introduction.

greetings. i am unfamiliar with how to start a blog off, however i will give my best attempt. i am a BFA candidate in illustration at moore college of art and design. i am currently in my second semester of my junior year in the illustration program at moore, and have recently decided to minor in business as well. i will be using this blog as a device to connect with other illustrators as well as anyone who is interested in the field of advertising. i will be uploading my work in addition to work i aspire to. please feel free to contact me if you are interested in my work, or if you have suggestions on how to improve it. i realize i have a great deal of room to grow as an artist, and look forward to the adventure.

with this being said here are two pieces of my most recent work:

"nightscare," acrylic. produced for a night scene project.
the reproduction of this is slightly on the pathetic side.
if anyone could give me recommendations on how to photograph or scan an image
with texture and glare i'd appreciate it.

"paint it red," acrylic. produced for a family themed story.
the story being about my brother & i doing what we did best...
getting into trouble.

i would love any feedback on these two pieces. if you do not feel comfortable leaving remarks on here, use my email --> ashleynicolemiles@gmail.com. now on to a piece of work that i admire.

"green street," ami plasse.
i am in love with his graphic style.
not to mention, his characters are hysterical and brilliant.

be sure to check out ami plasse's website and his other fabulous pieces of work. as for me, i will need to get back to attending my junior thesis project and children book. i will be sure to post sketches of my progress throughout. until then, best.
