This looks like "weed" right? Well, it's actually going to be what are called "Japanese Maple" leaves. This canvas was prepared with yellowed acrylic colors, then drawn in with a colored pencil, and I have decided I will paint the actual leaves in oils.
This one is also covered in black and white acrylic paint...mostly ivory black but some mars black as well. This is a woman wearing a gown, with her head looking down. She is sad because she doesn't have the latest Spring fashion to wear.
Both of these have a theme believe it or not! They are both going to be entered into the Spring art show at the Visual Arts Center.
I also plan to do this one in oils, but I may at last minute decide to work in acrylics. I'll figure it out when I get to that stage, at this point it could be either. I'm thinking of putting her in some clouds. And why clouds you may ask?
Well, I had lunch with some friends the other day and there were the best clouds in the sky so I grabbed my phone and took some photos. Here they are.
The painting is at the developmental stage so I'm not sure what I want to do.
Will post results. For now, I need to get some rest, I was up most of the night, I just couldn't sleep. At least now the time is being well spent painting and being creative.
