Happydance! My An Apple A Day digital painting, Flow, has been accepted to be part of the Maryland Federation of Art's upcoming 2022 Digital Directions show. As usual, something I didn't overthink and that was more play than anything is the successful image.
Taped a 40x60” paper to a closet and am practicing painting on that before trying on canvas. Long way to go but it’s a start.
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…
