whattt!!???

Last week Mr. Stephens had gotten me the most beautiful canvas i have ever seen, finally after looking at it for the past 5 or so days i started working on it. And i learned something, I have no freakin' idea how to use it! The texture is funny, it takes the paint completely different from the stuff I'm use to. I'm miss my cardboard at the moment.


This is definatly a challenge i didnt expect.


Also, this morning after looking over all my work with Mr. Stephens i found out that i am indeed finished with my concentration! But Mr. Stephens and I have a different vision to how these are all going to be presented. I defiantly think i am much further behind than he does.


Anyway... here's my latest concentration piece. Lucky number 7 (or 13)

Last block in illistration class

I planned out my next 3 blockheads. All of them are equally sick ideas.

The only problem i have now is deciding which one I'm going to start first!!!

5/12

Update on my concentration. As of right now i have 5 pieces completed (one of those being a triptych.) My 6th one should be finished either by tomorrow or Wednesday and ill be moving on to a charcoal self portrait piece. When i first started my blockhead concentration i was pretty worried I'd get stuck or bored. But now that I'm getting into this it is really coming easy.

And i must say i am taking this in a completely different direction then i thought i would. Other than the one pictured below a lot of them are turning out to be 3d forms consisting of various facial features (on blocks of course.) Very modern art.
One very important element i took out of those pieces is the suit. Something i am very fond of, and something ill be adding back into my next piece. I am really excited to get started!!


My latest drawing (only one I have photographed right now)
