Ok, art first!
I'm not fully awake yet, only just got my mocha so sorry if this comes out a bit mumbly and such...but finally getting round to showing you guys my summer project.  Don't get too excited, it's mainly shaudy sketches and crap art - but hey ho!

Hello guys, it's been a while =)

So my project!

Seeing as I don't think I ever did mention what it was to entail, the title of it is 'Relationship Between Man and Beast'.  I've been doing a LOT of research on many things - from animal rights/welfare, fur industry, symbolism/religion, feral children etc etc.  The problem I've been having lately is ( Read more... )

So...how did my first semester go?  Urgh...not well...not well at all ( Read more... )

Right, what I've doing in the fleshy!  Well...photo-fleshy =P

First off, here's the three wee tiles I did of the wonderfully large model.  I'm focusing in her leg, arm and leg/elbow in these, see if you can guess what is where ^^

Well, I'm alive!
I have been busy with a four week oil painting project - working from a life model for the first two weeks and then started my own piece from my mind for the second two weeks.  Should be in the studio right now working on finishing that, but wasn't sure where to do with it today and I have till christmas to finish it technically so ( Read more... )

Well...I know my vent-art is not complete...but I must say it has to be the only painting I have ever been truly happy with.  It's like...whilst I was painting it I was in a true trance and just went with it...no thought process...listening to the music and going with my emotions and feelings, no thoughts interupting me and clogging me up.  It felt ( Read more... )

I'm feeling a multitude of things right now - much of it angst and sorrow...but I am focusing on my art at the moment, putting what I feel into a more positive outlook and creating something hopefully beautiful with it.  But...we'll see.

For starters, I have a commission of a lovely little Daschund to work on for Malene; lovely lady on DA.  I ( Read more... )

Right, away from the last vent journal.

I have at last finished that damned project!  It was all mounted yesterday and today we got the crits - which was a little naff to be honest. 
This morning we had a lecture explaining the briefs for this 4 week project we're getting and we were all given the choice on what to do - painting (1 or 2), sculpture ( Read more... )

Well so far no doggie updates...other than some greyhound photos and a shite picture of Layla I did in colour pencils.  I'll add that at the end.
But for the moment I have been working my hiney off on a portrait of my sister's horse Minnie for her 30th birthday.  I have her as an adult and as a foal - nearly finished the adult headshot and still ( Read more... )

Came home today for the weekend, planning on going to a greyhound event on sunday which I can contribute to my project a bit methinks.  Well...I had a whole load of bags to bring with me and one was full of art stuff - paints, the dog sketch book, pencils etc and I forgot them ALL.  Cannot believe I forgot the bag when it was sitting at the door ( Read more... )
