Work, work, work

I should be doing other homework right now. But I'm not. XD I have had a very productive day: class, matte cutting, you name it! And what better way to celebrate than taking a few relaxing minutes to blog? My day seems to be made up of lights and darks. Lots of homework, but got all day to work on it tomorrow. Vis Com project almost due, but it's going faster now that I actually know what I'm doing with the mesh tool. Missed Art of Living Club tonight, but have all my pieces picked out and almost all my mattes cut for Proficiency. Gotta love that tug and pull of opposite forces!

In this next series of pieces, we have absolute chaos, color, and a strained attempt to be loose. Did it work? I'll let all of you decide . . . ;)

Long night ahead. Peace, love, and Pumpkin Delights. <3

Cheers!

So, here we have my rainbow assortment of friends and young adults. These didn't take very much time a piece. First combination of ink and watercolor, the ink providing structure. Some I am very proud of, simply for capturing my subject. If nothing else, the colors make me smile. :) 

Today's class work. This was supposed to also combine watercolor and ink, but I used very little of the latter. I did not want to use the reference I printed off, so I grabbed the worksheet I made myself for Religion class and drew the Hindu god, Vishnu. I took my time on him and created one piece I was truly proud of, as opposed to three not so hot ones. The second piece is a kind of joke. The swipes of color were the practice strokes I used to test the colors for Vishnu, and it was mentioned that the colors were parrot-esque. I tried to draw a Macaw over the colors and it turned into a bald eagle. Good at birds, I am not. XD
