Jan 26th: Acrylic on Canvas
There's only one way to describe how Wednesday went: Hauling ass. I sat down with a large cup of coffee, lined up 4 movies to watch and painted. And painted. And for a change of pace, painted. I moved the oldest sons' right eye over more. His eyes were too far apart. Did a little bit of tweaking with his face. Then I worked on clothing and getting the basic colors and wrinkles in there. The clothes in this painting are easy because all three of them are wearing white or mostly white shirts. The fabric that they're laying on is white also. I painted over the little girl's nose, still unhappy with it and painted in another general outline. So she looks very funky at the moment. Because I paint like a person with ADD, I began the background toward the end of the night. It was a sky blue. Once I'd finished, my fiance looked at it and gave me a thumbs down. So I painted over it with green, making a horrid teal. What I want is forest green. That's what'll go down tomorrow.
