New Painting

Right now I'm working on a new painting here are some photos of it so far
Stage 1
Almost stage 1 actually haha. THis is after adding a little color to the black and white underpainting. It's cropped off so the surprise isn't ruined.


Stage 2. Adding more color to the face and highlights to the armor.


Now it will need to dry a bit.

More Progress

I took a break from the sculpture because the wet clay wasn't drying enough to use. I set up my space heater and that is helping to make the clay more workable. I should have more pics soon it's coming along nicely.

Day 2

Second day working on this sculpture. It's starting to take shape but I will probably have to take a break. I didn't realize how long it would take the clay, which is still to wet, to dry out when the weather is cold.

Sculpting Another Clay Bust.

I am starting my second bust.
I am going to document the progress as it goes.
Okay so here is phase 1. The clay was a bit too wet so I am working on drying it out a little then I will begin to add the facial features today, hopefully. More pics soon.


Also, another face hanging sculpture I recently finished:

Tangled

I just finished this painting titled "Tangled." I started it a few months back but made a mess of it and had to scrape it, redo the under painting and start the color over again. Now that it's finished I am pretty happy with it. Sometimes they just have to be put on the shelf facing the wall for a while to get a fresh perspective and start over.
