Commission progress…

I’ve continued to refine to digital painting for this project. I divided it into a grid and printed each piece. Then I laid them out on the floor with some tape measures to show the size the finished piece will be. I decided what I want to do is practice painting it full scale on paper next. I have a big roll of brown paper that I cut and will use. Had to overlap 2 pieces to get the right size. Now the question is how will I do this? On the floor? Maybe. I think on a table would have it too high for me to see what I was doing in the context of the entire painting. Hoping for a large easel for Xmas…

New commission!

 And it’s going to be BIG. Here is a digital mock-up:

2 more poms

I FINALLY nailed that ruby color.

 

Last pom for a bit? Nope

 

The pom kick continues…

 Lots of mixed media on paper.

Poms on the brain

 

2023 UPDATE:

I worked on these in the beginning of 2023, repainting a lot and adding even red nail polish in an attempted to get the deep jeweled saturated color I wanted. I titled them PomPom Studies 1 & 2. #2 was shown at MFA's Circle Gallery (Annapolis) as part of my wall in the 2023 Mélange exhibition, and #1 was accepted into MFA's 2023 Member show (also at Circle Gallery).

Inktober 2021!

It’s that time of year again! Here are the prompts and the first 4 I’ve done.
