i'm loving my iphone and the photos apps available! here's a picture of a statue i have...
here's another painting i did recently...this shows the progression and my re-working...
i used acrylic and pastels...
i wasn't happy with the color on one side...i then put color on both sides, and kept working on her face. i still wasn't thrilled, so i kept at it. i gave her more hair. i lightened it up quite a bit and added flowers.
then i didn't care for the flowers and how detailed they looked. i painted and pasteled and chalked over them, leaving a bit of color showing through. i then added more of a creamy color to the white, which looks better with her hair and the tones in the painting.
here's the finished piece.
chalked another event board at native foods cafe at the bridgeport mall. i just love the whole vibe i get while in there. i am blessed to be able to do their event board at the end of every month for the next month. it feels great to be a part of such a cool place.
and my grumbacher paint classes at michaels are so much fun. my students are churning out such great work! i'm really proud of them!
we did a series of van gogh paintings...here is the still life...
here's the floral...
and here's the landscape...
