I'm officially calling one of my paintings DONE.
It's been a long haul for the Little Portraits set and I wish the whole set was done but alas, only one is Officially Complete.
I give you: Clark (aka Super Worm)
It took a long time to get the green shade right and to get it to a place where I feel confident it is done. I don't hate it and even kind of like it, so that's a good sign.
Unfortunately, after seeing how well Clark turned out I need to go back to Priscilla and Mr. Roboto and tweak them a bit. So the Little Portraits set won't be totally done for a few more weeks (hey, it's been a year now, what's a few more weeks, right?)
Close up (without my classmates butt in the background!)
I think the scarf may be my favorite part of this painting. I also like the stitching along the head.
I've already started re-working Priscilla. Nothing major (no do-overs, just working with what's already on the canvas). Ok, I did re-do the entire background but that wasn't really a big deal. It made a huge difference, too. I'll show that one off next week. I'm also going to give Mr. Roboto a small tweak. His antennae is a bit flat looking so I need to do the shadowing thing on it a bit better.
Someday I'll get to my next painting project, a break from painting my sewn creations. I'll be doing a total abstract painting. I can't wait.
I think it's even cooler than before, I love how the goggles shadow makes it look 3dish too!
