recent stuff




This is something i've been messing with for a bit, since last fall. I started it when I was painting my shoes, but them forgot about it. But I found it and decided to repaint it and draw on a skull, I think i'm going to have water or something coming out of it, but im going to paint it fist in acrylic and then do detail in oil. I do plan on using this thing. Its a brush holder if you didn't know what it was.

Some of you may remember this painting, particularly the under painting of this. I started this painting in 2010 and its still not finished, not even close. Mostly because i've been fucking around with it for a while.

I got rid of the jelly fish that use to be on it, mostly because they didn't fit into my idea for this painting anymore.

I painted over it with a mixed ultramarine and brown to make a nice black, and while it was still wet I blended brown and red through it. The red really made the blue background push back so I wanted to add something that would be present in the foreground, at this moment they are just yellowish blobs. but they will be in highly rendered detail( hopefully) tree mushrooms. and after that is all done I'm going to add more dots and lines and stuff. hopefully this idea works out.

sorry for the shitty picture, I lost my camera and used my iPhone instead.

so far I'm just going to let it setup a bit before I decide what to do next. I've been working on this painting for almost 2 years now and its about time I finish it. its long over due thats for sure.

Here's a more detailed picture of it. you can see that I haven't added any detail yet, its getting there though.
