Springing Forward
Another week has passed and I couldn't be happier about it! A good chunk of Southern Ontario got hit with a snow storm this weekend, but already a nice bought of warmer weather is melting it all away ~ I always look forward to that small break between winter and spring where you can really start to feel the summer months inching closer; as though anticipation of it is more exciting than it actually being here. Kind of like the scenario where you just can't wait for tomorrow, but than once it's today, it turns so quickly into yesterday. And dammit, daylight savings doesn't help >__< Oh well. Here's some more stuff! The nude painting beside is from my Figure Painting class -- we were forced to do full figure, as well as work monochrome, but, for my first semester with live painting, I'm content with that. oil, 24x30". ...And below are some sketches from my new book. I've been planning a series of works based within private/domestic spaces, though you probably won't see the products of such sketches for a long time to come. I feel it'll be a good opportunity for me to start pushing my portraiture into more narrative compositions, and also build on my personal symbolism. From where I'm heading, I think this will end up being the direction I take with my thesis ~ |
