Art Update

 This week, I was away for two days cause I was sick but  I still managed to stay on track for my board. I managed to complete two paintings and I've started on a third. This means I'm roughly halfway through my next panel of art. I'm worried that everything isn't gonna fit on my board as I already have a few odd spaces which is annoying.

Firstly, I finished my 2nd lino print painting. I planned on printing and having it all done in one day however, as I was printing I looked at it and thought it looked a bit funky. Turns out I had cut the lino the wrong way meaning I had to completely recut my lino. Anyway, I still managed to finish it the same day which was nice. 

I also painted this bathtub that I found on trade me. I altered how it looked and the colors a little just because I didn't wanna draw every tile so I just made the wall one singular unit. I'm quite proud of how this painting came out even though it was one of the plainest in the series.  

One other thing I did was I added the red border to the skeleton paintings cause I didn't like how all the other paintings had it and also I just think it looks cleaner. This is what they all look like now.


I've also completed my art history internal and just need to wait for Miss Keene to check my 1.2 slides and then I'll be done. I also need to paint one more painting and then my board will be complete. I'm thinking of re-arranging some of my paintings and will probably change the layout. Anyway, next week is my last week of full school and then I'll be on study leave so no more fricken blogs. I didn't like writing blogs before and I still don't like writing blogs.

Art Update + School Holiday art update

I've completed panel 1, however, I decided it would make more sense for panel 1 to be panel two. So, technically I've finished panel 2 and have started on panel 1. Anyway, look how nice it is.



Wow. Beautiful. I decided to change the background of the skeleton paintings from plain white to scraps of my maths textbook that I brought, and my old scipad. I like it a whole lot better and it fits in with the theme of school and mental breakdowns. I also finished my highway and my forest one. I wanna do one more of those however, it'll be put on the other panel. I also want to add some sewing/thread to them, however, I don't think I'll be able to as they might be too big. I'll figure out something. 

For the next panel, I'm including lino printing. I want it to sort of look like glitching/someone's losing their mind. I've got a plan of two other drawings that are similar to this one + one more to link with the other panel. The problem is I don't know how to make it fit nor do I have other ideas to fill the space. In this upcoming week, I plan on sketching out a thumbnail of what will be on my board and stuff.
