Artist's Log 2
More artist rambling. If van gogh had had a livejournal, perhaps....
This is fabulous! I have done some very cool things with my cellophane peice. I really like it now. The question is, should i continue working on it or leave it as-is? I've worked on it for 12 hours now. That's a good amount of time, right? 24 hours is better, tho, ne?
The texture and sculptural quality of the piece is pleasing, but the colors still clash. I think it's a good thing they do, but that's the opinion thats' gotten me into trouble in the past. Ah, but then, great artists of the past were ridiculed for such things! However, i'm still learning. ^^If everything on the piece was just suddenly white, then it would definately look cool.
Does it need more junk?
More paint?
more flatness?
More balance?
I think the bottom needs to be heavier, to stick with the idea of fading off at the top.
I still don't like that green. Ugh. I hate it! But what color goes well with yellow?!? ::runs off to research color palettes::
I like the subtle patterns of the lace in the fan, and the soda-can metal thingies (what are those called? forgot.)Not so much the lumpyness of the middle section. It definately need something more subtle. I have to tone down the color and the make the patterns more complex. And, work out the theme. currently, it's the brushes. The million-dollar question: stick with it or work on the first theme of blackberries and nostalgia? They kind of go hand-in-hand, but which is dominant? (uke vs seme hehe). Note to self: remember what Grandusky said about dominant and submissive colors. The yellow is meant to be the dominant color in this piece. Right now that green is the submissive... i want to kill the green... i'll paint over it first thing.
ag... headache... must sleep.
have fun at the fair, all. Take pictures for me!!
Now i have to clean my room. This is what it looks like:
here's the piece after i ripped off all the tissuue paper. See how bad the painting looked?
And here it is now. It's very shiny, ne? All of that is the plastic brush-baggies Rudy-san gave me. Some of them have old brushes in them, too, if you look closely. This is a pretty bad shot, i'll take another one tomorrow, maybe. ^^:
And here is my third Scargirl painting, unfishished:
ciaociao
p.s. cleaning always puts me in a painting mood. Maybe i should stay up all night painting. ^^
