DRIVE_BY ART POSTING!
Paipo-Gene Simmons! :lol:
Thanks for the Eternals link! Kirby was ON it!
peeked at Frizzell's work and can totally see what you mean...
He isn't afraid to try new styles with old concepts and even if it means freaking people out or offending them so be it-it's art! Been diggin Calder and Miro and Stuart Davis and Chagall !
They've all been enticing me...and picasso and braques and Klee and redon.......
Thanks for the inspiration! man! I need to quit this day job!
Kahu-Thank you! wish you could come too....
Ravers-Tropical dream! wait til you see the fall of Icarus....with tikis!
Dawn-Wish you and not just your pieces were gonna be at the Sale.....
frostiki-thank you....
pointers....remember it's a water medium
it dries fast ...practice your blending and overlaying of colors
brush pressure...
lighting can be as easy or as hard as you make it...
play on paper first...good paper...arches
that way if it's a masterpiece-you can sell it...
play play play!
Hope that helped!
VROOOOOOOOOM!
ZIPFIZZ and OJ today!
wasting time posting-but really made a good stride in the MODERNE stuff last night...
here you go!
And remember...these will be at the Tiki farm Parking lot Sale in 2 WEEKS!
