The three weeks until school starts are bittersweet! On the one hand, I have only 20 days of waiting to see friends again, which is great. On the other, I have only 20 days to finish two oil paintings, an illustration project, and a stretched gouache + colored pencil drawing. It's also possible that I may teach some in between. So busy with art! But I can't get tired if there's a lot of variety. If I get burnt out from one medium, I can switch over to another and have some sort of new energy. Here's an oil painting I'm making for my sister:
It's a landscape that she thought up from her imagination. A painting in this stage I'd say is about 50% done. There are still some big color decisions to be made through glazing; right now it's very brown. At the same time, here some of my colored pencil doodles, done for fun.
Wow! What to say when no words come to mind? Well, maybe one word...MINDSCATTERING! BRILLIANT! What an accomplished artist you are. Your sister is lucky to get such a rewarding oil painting!
