I have begun the first of my oil paintings. Here are the pencil and marker working of it so far. I am very excited to get started with the oil.
So I mentioned before about going up in size for my work. You can see, these next few paintings will be about 4 times the size I normally work in… if not a little more. It will be totally weird for me to work at that size, but I’m sure I’ll adjust in no time. I just wonder if it will then be difficult to go back down to smaller sizes again. I’m probably over thinking it and everything will turn out well.
Not sure how many of these large canvases I will do right now. I know I have at least 3 sketches worked out that I am planning for large canvas. At some point though, I’ll need to go back down to working in a smaller format. I also want to try working on different surfaces.In the meantime I am also going to be working on a secret installation. If everything goes well, it shall indeed kick ass. More on that when it’s close to being done, which will be a while.
And lastly- it’s Halloween time on I-mockery which means insane amounts of candies and treats in the apartment. I have already scoped out some for myself. Please refer to Exhibits A and B below.
May you all have an evening filled with good things.
