Drawing Final Complete!

The pictures dont really do it justice :(

Plus my wash almost ruined it.

Turned out well though.

Drawing Final

Home stretch? Maybe.

Painting Final

I've been painting again. Who knew?

Victory is Mine

Things are coming along smoothly.

Brushmarks

Whoo... progress is fun. This looks a bit different than what I normally do but we'll see what kind of reaction I get.

When it dries a little more Im going to add a bit more lights and contrasts.

The pictures do not do the painting justice. The flash reflects too much off of the brushmarks.

Blargh

So here I am... covered in gesso. I've been painting a lot this weekend but it doesn't really even show.

First I pretty much completely painted over a painting from the last critique that just did not have enough paint on it. Here's a comparison:

Before:



After:




What do you think? It probably doesn't show many of the changes.

Hagu!!!

I want this for some reason. And I don't know why. Other than the fact that its pure awesome.

I mean come on - its HAGU and she is on a horse with a steering wheel. Let's not even start on the balloons.

Merry Christmas From Apt. I

Yes, it is Christmas time...

1) The beginnings of my bonsai tree.
2) Meg's Peanuts Christmas Tree
3) The tree and a gift to us from Jason.
4) Another shot of our lovely gift
5) Jason also brought us a Christmas tree. It was awesome.

Less Than Three Cyborgs

I've been drawing today. Its looking good so far.

Still Alive

I know. I havent posted in awhile.

Right now I'm working on stuff for watercolor and drawing...

The pictures are the current state of the livingroom.

Is this me?

Look at the comments for the full report. (on blogger - not facebook - which means all of the facebook people will need to come straight to this blog) I dont want to clutter the blog with lots of text.

More Painting

I'm soooo tired.

Paintings 2 and 3 - semi complete.

I'm not sure that I am terribly happy with either of them. They just seem to lack something.

Sunday Painting Part 1

Uuuuuuugh. Im so tired of painting for right now and I'm thinking it shows.

Anyway, I finished up the detail on the painting with the rose. Its not perfect. But its not there to be perfect.





I've divided my work into two places. The studio and the apartment - for maximum productivity! The set up for the rose painting is at the studio along with the spikey hair painting. That painting still needs to be finished. More detail work on the hair. The mint box needs to be painted in. More work on the foreground. More work on the boa. More highlights on the face.





At home is the setup for the blonde wig painting. I am NOT pleased with it yet. Some of the mistakes need to dry so I can paint over them and I really need to add more things into the still life.



Look for another update soon.

Lots of painting.

I painted today. Yay for still life set ups. I have nothing much to say because I'm exhausted.
