Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm not shitting you, this is a real assignment I got from Intermediate Painting. The month of April is going to be filled with paintings. If I start a painting that day, it has to be done that day. I guess if I did one at 11:30 pm I would let myself run into the next day, but stick with the TIME LIMIT I SET TO MYSELF. That's right, if I go "I'm only spending 1 hour on this painting." GUESS WHAT? ONLY ONE HOUR GOES INTO THAT PAINTING.

They'll all be in Water Soluble Oils. Some with have Acrylic under them. None will be glazed, because I wont have the time to let them dry.

So let me start you off with the first painting.


Silly Title: A Reminder My Glasses Are Broken
Time Limit: 3 hours
Finished in: 2 hours 50 minutes ( 4/1/10 1:40- 4:30pm)
Dimensions: 16x20"
How I got here: A lot of Cadmium Yellow Pale, Cerulean Blue Hue, and some French Ultramarine and Titanium white. THE ONLY COLORS I USED FOOLS. It was painted over an old acrylic painting that was brown, orange, yellow, and green. So I blocked in all the colors at first (WHICH I DON"T HAVE A PICTURE OF) then smeared it with my hands in a paint rag, and then went back in and painted in some details. Like the eye. I don't know why but it was really important that my right eye just sort of stared at you.
Inspired by the work of Eric Leonard Jones

Yeah and it's an intended sort of bluriness!

Your art is like porn to me.
Just letting you know, thanks for the free porn.

More porn! I'm so behind on this.
Paints 4-6!

Painting 4 is Red Tentacles! About an hour painting. Then I stopped. This was supposed to be a two hour painting by the way. It actually started off as a portrait that I changed into tentacles.


Painting 5 is a ******** shark, with a watercolor background. About an hour went into this one too.


Painting 6 is blue tentacles! About 15 minutes have gone into this one so far.

I spy with my little eye a stefanie~

oh s**t, that is Josh isn't it. I was sitting here like "I KNOW WHO THAT IS, WHO IS THAT FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU"

is it the lighting or did you use greens on Stef's? :O
