Owl Painting Update

The photoshop color test for these wild colored owls that I am about to paint for my friend. I think the colors work really well together. Hopefully this piece will prove to be easier to paint for real than they were to paint on photoshop. (Odds are they will be harder though xP) Greatly looking forward to this painting.

AP Drawing Quality Works

I received my AP Drawing 5 Quality works back in the mail today. Still no sign of my AP Design 5 Quality works, but I am keeping my eyes open. I also still have not received scores. I am keeping my finger's crossed and hoping desperately that I have passed. Wish me luck :)

Still Life Lesson


A still life drawing I am working on in my lessons with Shane and Sara Scribner. Gosh this thing is so amazingly difficult. I love it, but my goodness that metal creamer is a PAIN!!!! This is the second sketch, the first one didn't make it past the rough sketch. I still need to do the glass, but I will most likely be working on that on Monday or Tuesday of next week. I am so excited to finish this because it is soo different from most of the things that I have done, and I am learning SOOOOOO much from the Scribners. I feel like I will have a jump start on college.

Owls


Today marks the beginning of a new piece of artwork. I am going to Lowes here in a bit to buy a new wood panel, and then I am going to begin working on a painting of owls. Such beautiful creatures, I know I am going to have fun with this project.
Now if I could just get ahold of the person who is commissioning it to find out how she would like them colored. I am torn between neutral colors of browns, creams, and whites, or vibrant vivid colors that are totally off the map. I currently need to go get the wood panel it is going to be on and sketch it out!

The Octopus is FINALLY Completed!

Today I finished my Octopus painting for my dorm room this fall. I am very pleased with how it turned out. This piece took me about a month to complete, but probably only 24-30 hours of comprehensive work. I want to thank Sara and Shane Scribner for the tips and pointers on the painting, anatomy, and color of my octopus. Much fun was had by all on this piece I do believe. I can't wait until this fall when I get to hang it up in my room :)
