This picture is of some of the pieces I worked on today. I also attempted cleaning up my studio. My brother brought me some extra storage unit space. I am enjoying having a space of my own in the house. Though I am still travelling around with my pens n art work.
Hope you had a lovely day today. Nite nite
I am really working hard to get my technique and inspirations fine tuned. I get easily distracted as to how to approach a Piece of work. I have an idea I want to do then I put a mark on the page that inspires me for something else. I am constantly asking myself why I draw or paint what I Do.
i love my abstract work and know I will never let it go, I love my figurative work also. So I am continuously trying to marry the two.
In my figurative work I want to put so much detail, and hadn’t found a way of doing it that I Enjoyed until a couple of weeks ago. Since then I have been churning, yes! Churning out the work. But I know I still have some way to go in that department.
I am really excited about this new approach I am taking to my work. I love the process and the product. I wanted to create pieces that felt like objects, to be pretty and special. I am using some of my own recycled occasions cards I received from people. I asked friends to give me old Christmas cards or non personal cards to me. What you see below are some of the results of almost finished pieces of art. I will list them on my etsy site soon as prints.
Have an amazing day tomorrow. B
Here are some pics I have been working on today. I am loving the result of this work. I have been using recycled greeting cards to paint on. I want these works to be objects to be held and appreciated by the owners before put in a frame. They are pretty just on their own.
It’s a bit dark for pic but I will take better ones soon.
Nite nite
I worked on this cute piece today. I love it. Trying to fine tune my style. Sleep well everyone. Too tired to write more. Time currently 00.22am.
New art in my gallery and shop for sale. Contact me if you have any questions. My week by week art has been put aside for now. Too much on at once.
Ok so I bent my own rule tonight and painted the background of another of my artwork. I will be back on form tomorrow.
Here are some pics of other pieces of originals in my shop.
Hi everyone, hope you had a great weekend, I know I did, and am ready to continue the week on the same train. I blogged last week about my new project week by week art. So here is the first Pic of the week. This work is entitled ‘The Empress and herDaughters’ it’s a piece I drew along time ago on watercolour paper. It was black and white, but for the purpose of my week by week art, I coloured the background as a start towards finishing the piece by the end of this week.
i still doubt myself far too much when it comes to painting in colour especially my figurative work. Hope to have a progress pic tomorrow. At the end of the week I will upload it to my shop on etsy. See you soon.
Hi everyone, it’s not been too long since my last post I hope. I really struggled with my blogs for a while. I wouldn’t blog if I thought I had nothing to say. But that hasn’t been correct on my part. I work on my art everyday, so how can there be nothing to say. In between changing diapers and feeding my little ones I am always sketching or updating my Etsy and Redbubble shops. My etsy shop provides signed art work straight from me, Prints and originals.
Anyways I digress, I decided my new project shall be creating one artwork each week specifically for my blog. Each day I will put my progress of the said art on my blog. At the end of the 5th day the original will be for sale on my etsy shop.
I will title them WeekArt1-month2013 or something like that, I may use its actual name too.
I will start that Monday 22 April 2013 so look out for that.
Here are some snap shots of stuff I have been working on.
Have a great day. B
Hi everyone, hope you had a great week. I have been working on a number of ideas recently and can’t wait to share them, the first idea is my venturing into ACEO’s with my abstract art and returning to abstract artwork for a while.
I have been trying to focus my work to a more personal level, I intend to spend even longer assessing and re-assessing each piece. I want them to be like jewels. Full of ‘yummy colours’ and also leaving me more open and vulnerable in the pieces.
