Art Every Day 2.0 | Overdue Work In Progress

Acylic and handmade paper...so far.

New Painting

Okay, so this painting isn't brand new.  I did it mostly last semester, but this summer I did a bit more,  So...I guess it is new, cause it is finaly finished.

It is acrylic, pieces of window screen, and graphite.

Art Every Day 2.0 | Making Art

This image is part of the process for me.  I have been working on a new painting so I attached a loose piece of canvas below the painting on the support structure of the main canvas. 

Anyway...I have been working with a spray bottle A LOT on this one.  SO FUN.  Of course while I am using the spray bottle there is water and paint dripping everywhere, now it is dripping down to this scrap piece of canvas!

It's like two pieces of art in one!  LOVE THAT!

This is after only a few drips, can't wait to make more today!

Where I am Right Now.

 

Art is never finished, only abandoned.

Leonard da Vinci

 

That's kinda where I am.  Resurecting a painting a I abandoned months ago (for good reason).  And in the middle of another for my painting class. 

 

The other thing I have been working on is a little (very simple) digital art, in the form of print, cut and surprise cards for my make change. project.  Here is one I made today!
