BANANAS

The name's Lillian Solano. I prefer Lilly, or even the Almighty Lillith, but you can decide that for yourself. I like to art and such, so follow to see my stuff. (: Hopefully you'll see me progress through it all. :D

Are you in Eugene, OR? Do you want a poster of Valentine's Day cliches mashed up with war propaganda? I'm selling postcard and small poster sizes: $3 postcard, $8 poster. I'm also selling the cat one for the same prices. . . . #eugene #uo #college #drawing #photoshop #posters #postcards #supportlocalartists #unclesam #propaganda #consumerpropaganda #consumerism #halp (at Eugene, Oregon)

2 out of 4 from my Photoshop project this week. Transformed the "Hang in There, Baby" poster to be more aggressive. 😼 . . . #cat #hangintherebaby #motivational #motivationalposter #poster #pussy #fire #bebadass #getfit #photoshop #edited #college (at Eugene, Oregon)

1 out of 4 of my Photoshop projects this week. 1 out of 2 that I actually like. Had to turn cliched images and transform them into MEGA cliche. So lemme just combine the well known "I Want YOU" poster with the cheesiest holiday. 💖 I'll post my other favorite shortly. ✨ . . . #photoshop #edited #photomanipulation #drawing #painting #unclesam #iwantyou #consumerpropaganda #cheesefest #valentinesday #love (at Eugene, Oregon)

Snippet from a blip I did of the Eugene-based band, Hostages. 🌲 Took the time to listen to their album, Greenhouse Children today--AND TADA. This happened. View the whole image at IABWM on Facebook (its too large to fit it all here)! ✨ . . . #drawing #painting #digital #photoshop #lyrics #eugenebands #hostages #lyrics #departure #greenhousechildren #followforprogress (at Eugene, Oregon)

Did a redraw of photo I took during the Eugene Woman's march. The best thing about this shot was that I faced the camera over my shoulder while keeping up with the march and got a perfectly timed shot. I was delighted.

I have grown to love the comic form this past year and I'm hoping to increase my comic output, so I created a space solely for comics!

Ended up with color and black/white copies because the only setting I didn't check was color... 😭 This comic is unfinished, but I only need to turn in three pages for class. Hoping to finish it in five or six pages--possibly more--during winter vacation. ✒ Definitely taking a nap later. Only had six hours of sleep. Stayed up until 3am just to finish the comic portion. Now essay time... . . . #comic #digitalcomic #digitalart #photoshop #painting #drawing #sleepdeprived #dreams #sleepparalysis (at University of Oregon)

Transition to dream land sequence. Page 1 mostly done, I kinda want to redraw the previous panels because I found a style I liked late last night with these panels. 😅 Time to really bust this comic out. . . . #comic #wip #progress #digitalcomic #digitalart #drawing #bedhead #dreams #sleepdeprived #lookatthathair #butterflies #transitions #blues (at Eugene, Oregon)

Sorry about the lack of updates, peeps. It's been a hectic end of term, and I still have a week of stuff. Here's the beginning of my comic final, with a bit of comic-ception. #comic #wip #progress #beginnings #inception #digitalcomic #digitalart #college #endofterm #finals #sleepdeprived #cantwaitforholidays #sleepandvideogames (at University of Oregon)

Most of the one page comic I did for my project: Comic Remix. Taking a panel layout from an existing comic and using that structure to make your own comic. So here is (3/4ths of) "Dangers of a Blank Page", using a layout I found on page 133 of Neil Gaiman's comic adaptation of "The Graveyard Book: Volume One". ✒ I want to start my own series of web comics, but it doesn't presently seem feasible time-wise. 😓 but in other news I'll be at #EUCON tomorrow!--well, technically later today. 😂 . . . #drawing #digitalart #digitaldrawing #photoshop #comic #remix #shortcomic #project #finished #layout #digitalcomic (at University of Oregon Campus)
