color layers! [Jan. 29th, 2010|12:24 am]
[Tags|, ]

here, finally is a semi-good picture of my painting (not another phone picture today). & I finally started adding color. Ive realized I wont be able to finish this painting on time for the Alwun House show. The deadline/drop off/submission day is the day after tomorrow.. and thats no fun, I can't get all the coloring done by then. it kinda sucks, ..but I'd rather spend a longer time on painting it and make it as good as i can, than rush through and get it in the show, but then it not being my best work. :\

But that's alright, I'll have a new painting! a print should be ready by First Friday! ..that is, actually.. if I find my way to a large scanner. I think my old school had some.. I'd be really excited if I were able to make prints of this giant[to-me] painting!
Have a good Friday! :)

I haven't worked on this painting very much, have been focusing on "The Devil's Playground" instead.
I'm going to finish it in time to submit to the Annual Erotic Art Show at the Alwun house in downtown Phoenix. Feels like I've been wanting to participate in this show for about 3 years now, but every year the time comes around I haven't been prepared with a good painting.
The deadline is now the 31st of January (just over ONE week)!

and here's a quick reminder of my painting sketch.
This is going to be a good painting. I think I've found a good process finally.. (black and white under painting then glazing in layers of color)! The first painting using this process was my Bear Masked Record. SO excited to finish this. :)
Going to work hard to make the deadline, but if it doesn't make it, at least I'll still have a new awesome painting! :P I also have to come up with a tittle soon. I like tagging each painting and being able to see all the process pictures & blog entries!

album cover commission - The Devil's Playground [Jan. 15th, 2010|12:25 pm]
[Tags|, , ]

This is what I finished up with yesterday.
I worked on finishing the boy, finalizing the girl's pose and dress, and worked on the devil's lower pant legs and shoes.
Today I have to redo the devil, and turn him into a naked one..
I think the idea of painting a naked red devil creeped me out a bit, now i get to face him head on! :P More progress updates later!

hey there! I'd like to share what I'm working on! this is going to turn out much better than it does here! my version of this is colored, but to keep things simple I left that part out for now.
it's still really sketchy too. Can't wait to be done!


still have to add more playground elements in the background.

Happy New Year! [Jan. 7th, 2010|07:51 pm]
[Tags|, ]

I hope you've had an awesome start to your new year! I'd also like to thank you for continuing to read my blog. :) I hope to have tons of artwork updates more often from now on, so keep an eye out!
here's a watercolor sketch I made the other day.
I bought myself a set of watercolors finally! I love them! this is one of my first times using watercolors, closest I had come to the medium before was with using watered down acrylics (not the same at all, i found out)!
I'll be able to work on fast drying artwork now, as well as on oils that take way longer. It feels like I have so many painting sketches/ideas just waiting to be finished! I'll try to gather them all together some time in the next few entries.
I'm going to get back on track with my daily drawings too. Aiming for 5 a week!
Now back to work I go!
