Le Atelier de la Cuiller Tordue

Finally I have completed the studio. From this point on this will be home to many works of art that will be featured on this blog.

The aquarium will eventually have fish and from time to time there will be a drop cloth to cover the floor from paint spills.

The couch is for resting, which I often like to do. For now, my cat is keeping the couch warm.

Until next time, when I advance Highlights on Black...

I am Moving!

I apologize for the lack of updates, but I am in the middle of moving to a new location that will offer me more room to create artwork. Of course, first things first... I will post photos of the new studio and then I will post a continuation of Highlights on Black...

Until next time...

Highlights on Black - Process 6

At the end of the day Sunday, this is what I have finished thus far. For some reason I am incredibly terrified of doing their faces. Not sure why. This is the whole board:



And the detail that I have finished on Sunday. I don't very much like the way the old man's hand turned out, which probably means that I am going to have to find a way to redo that area without undoing the areas around it. The jumper turned out great and the fence to the right is not half bad either.



Tuesday is a day off, but I will be at the polls. If you have not done so, please go vote. Until next time...

Highlights on Black - Process 5

Ok... So after a week, this is what I have accomplished so far. The shirt on the Grandpa came out quite nicely, but I can't say they same for the hands of both, the child and the man... I really need to improve my figure drawing... I had to improvise here in order to make everything fit into the designated scale square...

It's not bad, however, it could be a tad better...



And this is the detail shot of the shirt and the child's arm:



Until next time...
