I'm teaching a LOT this summer. A LOT. And although I'm having a wonderful time with the kids, I intensely miss my long stretches of focused painting time. I did, however, get a chance to make this quasi-sinister guy this week:
And I started this guy today:
And I started this guy today:
The house is based on this house: I find myself painting directly from my computer with increasing frequency.
I also started this guy last week, but I felt like the composition was too dead and boring. I'll keep this and see what I can turn it into. The chickadee piece is my take two of this first attempt:
Yesterday afternoon, in a moment of extreme obsessive compulsion, I spent two (*cough* unpaid) hours creating this puppet theater for my puppet-making class at the Arsenal Center. Don't get me wrong, I spend a lot of unpaid time preparing for my classes, but this was a bit over-the-top. Especially, since I was feeling very cranky for lack of painting, AND I was working in the room directly next to my studio. But the kids in my class are REALLY cute and REALLY excited about performing with their puppets in an end-of-week show. So I made this for them:My students painted it today, but I forgot to take a picture. I'll get one tomorrow.
