October 2


Funny how you feel when a project is completed.
You sit back and relax and wait for the other shoe to fall.
So, what's next.
Learn to speak french.
I haven't heard as of this writing weather or not the pieces I have entered into the Artoberfest Show will be accepted into the show. If not I have another years to work on something new.

I was thinking about combining colored pencil and watercolor and or acrylic.
the watercolor for smooth transparent values. the acrylic for its opaque qualities and the colored pencil for more brazen mark making. The idea is to infuse the piece with more drawing qualities and still maintain the smooth transparencies of the water media. So I will work on a larger piece and when I gave the base done I will insert collage to more thoroughly enhance the texture and varied colors, as well as making it one piece by fusing all of the elements together in plastic. More when I have a chance I am listening to Dvorak Symphony No.2.
