I’ve actually spent most of my time away from the studio this week. After my midterm conversation with Laura, I wanted time to think about the direction to take my space painting. In the meantime, I started 2 other pieces:
One is a digital painting, for which I did some preliminary pose studies. For the background I am loosely painting over a photo so I can make changes to fit my concept. My experience so far: Fabric is impossible. Why did I choose such a complex dress?!
The other piece is nearly finished. The watercolor has been a nice break from oils. I want to add a light grey shadow underneath the woman on the moon. After that, I plan to make an accompanying piece of a sun goddess. Fun detail: the moon’s eyes are brown/yellow and the sun’s will be blue because they are reflected in each other’s gaze. <3
