Im sick and its finals week. ugh. perfect combination.

Anyways, i just finished a piece for a show my class is having (which ill post pics of later from the reception) and i am pretty happy with it considering i had to finish it in 3 days because i accidentally screwed up another painting which is actually on the BACK of the paper...

Its acrylic and colored pencil on toned paper. Im trying to loosen my drawings, because they get too tight all the time, which makes them look too calculated. so in this case i did 0 planning and just dove in. Im really happy with it, but i cant help but think that it turned out the way it did with some luck involved. ha, i wish i could just blow prelims off all the time! ohh welll

In the past 4 days i havent slept too much, so im not entirely sure if this post will make sense in the morning, but to hell with it...

The last picture is to show the toll it took on my hands after working for 14 hours straight. notice the 2 blisters beginning to form. hooray.

  4. Dude! that's what it's all about--putting marks down and finding the lucky spots. You dove in and made a sweet illustration. Keep up the good work--I'm really enjoying your work.
