Spring Semester 2011 has begun

Above are the assignments from the first week of school. Starting at the top are my two drawing class assignments, a spiral staircase and a house in 2 point perspective. Next is a piece I did for fun over the holiday break. The final 2 are, first, my design ideas and, second, plate 1 for design 2, complimentary color schemes in opposition. Sorry for the brevity of this post, but it is 2:04 am and I have class at 9am, and JUST finished painting the final picture in this post, in fact it is still wet. So I'm off to bed, goodnight all!

College So Far

I haven't posted in a while, but I have been REALLY busy with school. I have posted all of my works from school so far on my Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dominique-Midgetts-Art/129404597089997#!/album.php?aid=30809&id=129404597089997

But in this post are a be a few of my favorites so far :) The photos aren't so good, but I don't have a scanner and most of these are rather large in real life. I hope you enjoy :)

So very very busy

I have been super busy the last few weeks packing for college and getting things ready to move, so I'm sorry I haven't been posting updates on my artwork. I have finished the owl painting and I have pictures I just haven't posted them yet. I also have started on a new painting for my mom's birthday gift. It is going to be an abstract representation of jellyfish. We had some paintings up in the gallery like that and my mother expressed interest. If I had a spare $2000 lying around I would just buy one for her but as it turns out I don't have that much money lying around but I do have quite a bit of paint laying around. So the background for that is started and I will post pictures of it later. I am also working on finishing a piece that I started about two years ago for my mom. It should hopefully be finished sometime here soon. I will post pictures I promise.

Still Life Finished

This is the still life which I posted an WIP picture of towards the end of June. It is finished, FINALLY!! This took a lot of patience and on my half, and a lot of putting up with my frustrations on Shane's half. He's right though I can see in the scan that there is a lot that could be fixed. For the time being though, I am pleased with it. This is the best thing I have ever done in charcoal, and one of the only things I have ever done in charcoal.

A Blue Owl

I have been working diligently on my owls today and have accomplished a lot on the blue owl. For the most part, the blue owl is done. I only need to add a few finishing details which will be added at a later date when the rest of the painting is at the point that the blue owl is at now. I am really looking forward to the end result on this painting. The yellow owl still needs quite a bit of love and affection before it will be at the same point that the blue owl is at now.
