Haunted Man
I'm trying to practice shadow, depth, light and perspective in preparation for my painting class. I copied this sketch from a photo that I found a couple months ago. I still struggle with scale.
What Works
Following the exercises in The Artist's Way lead me to another series of goal exercises supported by Artist INC . Slowly I have begun to shift my mindset towards considering myself a small business owner who happens to be selling artwork, thus progressing as a professional artist.
The Artist's Way
The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron... a book recommended to me several times over the past ten years. This past December 2017, I finally felt prepared to commit the three months of intensive journaling exercises and activities located within its pages. Even still, I barely scratched the tip of the iceberg in terms of the valuable opportunities for generating self-awareness and healing. I recommend this book for anyone looking to unblock creativity or nurture the inner artist child.
Art School
I'm trying to raise money to take a painting class this summer at HCC. Here is the link for more information about donating: Send Me to Art School . This pursuit has long been a dream of mine and so I appreciate any and all support. (a work in progress)
Plates
Lately I have been decorating these plates with various radial designs. They seem to follow some rules and no rules as they develop organically.
