Birthday Party

Painting Given

Running debate : European Robins have identical coloring in male and female, so which of these is the male, and which the female? 

Painting Detail

Not quite done 

Covering Blue

The Next Stages

All those pretty designs got covered, but still peek through as tones and texture in the back ground. 

Then the subject matter got drawn in charcoal, then initial paint.

Book Making

Lessons

A young man needs a Valentine for his girl, so we worked on page scoring and folding, signature stitching, learned the kettle stitch, made and covered covers, and got messy with glue.

Possible spine cover.

Now to fill it. Weekend work for him.

More Than Blue

Stenciling Added

This is for some color, texture, and pattern under the background. But it will only show very subtly afterward. 

Light quality was poor. You can see when I get to things. 

The Other Comic Update

 ...mostly because the traditional work I could show you is not photographed at present.

 

Google Docs outline snip of the script file, just for the sake of having an image here XD

I would venture to say that I expect to have enough episodes completed to launch the series with by sometime in March, but we'll see how that goes. Also, I'm not quite sure if I should stick with my decision to leave the first episode (which was almost already completed last February before I went back to sharpening up the script instead of trying to follow the vague outline) as is, since I would probably want to redo it later on anyway. It is pretty scary-looking right now...

Master Painting

This is Temporarily in my Possession

It is a print, made to mimic a painting, of a work by a nineteenth century Italian artist. 

I like the subject, and the artist’s work. 

Minimalist?

New Start

So, with more snow coming down

I started painting a canvas, in terrible light, but I just needed to cover the surface with paint. 

I could say “Blue on Blue” or “Summer Sky” or “Untitled number 4537,” but actually it is the beginnings, I hope, of something more. To be continued...
