Three Pieces

New Concentration...

So, this weekend all i did was paint and tried to get a good start on my three pieces that are due. While i was painting and drawing these kids with animal heads i started second guessing my concentration. After trying to produce more and more of these animal creatures i realized it wasnt working for me. I had trouble creating things and it turned into more of a chore and a hassle then something i enjoyed doing.

I decided to take my style that i have and work on it a bit. I have concluded that my concentration will be based on "Wabi Sabi" a japanese term for "beauty in imperfection"

I spent two days on this concept and am already extremely excited.

Concentration

I decided to do my concentration on the idea of taking children's portraits from the 1920's and 30's and replacing their heads with animal heads. I have always been creeped out by those 1920's and 30's portraits of children and felt morphing them with animals would bring it to a whole new level.

Luke Chueh

I think his paintings are gorgeous in a wierd way. I don't know why i'm drawn to them because im not a fan of drawing cartoons, but i'm drawn to his work.
