WIP Acrylic on Canvas.

f e r n

WIP Acrylic on canvas. I have 2 essays to burn through and then I'll be spending the remainder of the weekend in my studio, painting myself into a coma. Can't wait! (and that's genuine!)

So YES was a huge, fantastic success! Thank you so much to everyone who came out to share the evening with us. Also thanks to Marta Ryczko for taking these pictures :)

Some little experimental, hand-drawn stickers. Quite fun, I think I might make some more, but with proper materials!

Today was full of fixing and do-overs. WIP Acrylic on Canvas, continuing from here.

The beginning of the painted version of this lovely lady.

After her.

There just wasn't something right about this girl.

The next step, looking better I think:

Another paint-over...and it's going to be painted over itself I reckon.

An oldie, but definety in the same stream that I'd like to be swimming again in soon. Hades & Persephone, number one in a three part (as of right now) series that I did for the From Beneath show back in December.

I like drawing on yellow paper, it makes everything look antique. Athena, Aegis and all.

Almost there, can't wait for something new!

It's been a crazy past few days, it'll be a crazy few to come.

It's going to be a fantastic show. If you're going to be in the KW area I highly reccomend checking it out, and as always, tell all your friends!

I can't believe how fast time really does fly when you're having fun. These two feel like yesterday....

D is for Decapitation.
S is for Stab.

Happy Friday everyone!

What's the most frequently-broken bone in the human body?

The clavicle, apparently.

Messages to myself / inner monologue / confessions / motivations.
I am channeling my negativity; by metaphorically voming it up, I regain control (or so I like to think).

Another Acrylic on Canvas WIP lady. 

I like her, except for her "scarf" which I mostly think looks like a steak...or an inside-out octopus. Tisk tisk.

From that to this. Acrylic on canvas WIP.

I was going through some books in my studio this past week and WHAM BAM stumbled across these gems; I had pressed them in the fall and I am so happy that I found them. I especially love the beautiful, giant hosta leaves, which were disgusting ( and slimy!) to harvest but now look like nature's own tissue paper.

I feel like I'm making a rediculous soup: Into the collage you go! (or like the French chef from The Little MermaidI. "Les poissons, les poissons, how I love les poissons! Now I'll stuff you with bread, it won't hurt, 'cause you're dead--and you're certainly lucky you are!")

I think I need a vacation.

Another thrift store find. I'm not exactly sure what these little birds were originally intended for, but I know that they'll have happy homes inside some collages soon.

p l a i n . j a n e

It's anybody's guess.

So here is half of my Thesis assembly; the other half is here more or less.

If I can pull this off, I'll be the HAPPIEST girl in the world.

It's about time that I added some nudies to my wardrobe. New shoes from Old Navy.

Fingers crossed.

Usually when I start drawing in a particular style, and I really get my mojo going, I stop abruptly and then look back months later, after I've fallen out of that style or forget exactly how I did something and think "why didn't I do more of those?". Not this time; I'm on a roll, and Imma keep rolling.
