Making this art blog has inspired me to paint, because I realize that my 2008- current tab is pretty pathetic. I need to add some more paintings to that shit!!!
Its beautiful out today, although Kelly did have to scrape ice off her windshield this morning :( , so I'm gonna work on a painting that I started over 6 months ago. It's just been sitting around because it's huge and I got discouraged...
Its one painting that's chopped in the middle... 2 big panels of wood, 2'x2' and 2' x 4'. Life sized. But, I dont think I used the right sealant on the wood because the wood just wants to soak up my paint, which makes it frustrating to paint because I have to use so much god damn paint! And I have to build up way more layers to cover up the wood grain so it doesnt show through the paint...
And when I finally finish the beast, I'm gonna have to find a kick-ass, shiney sealant to put over the top. Blah, I should've used acrylic for this one. Because I'm gonna have to wait 3 months before I can put sealant over the top of the oil paint! Although I dont own any acrylic...
There's another thing for the good ol' list.
