Eggs and Radios

I have been very busy in My Adv. Art class!! Here are a couple of the things I've done over the last month.



The radio was done in 5 different grey-scale markers. Parts of this was really challenging..cough cough....the background. I originally wanted the background to be seamless. I wanted it be a grey that faded into white. Right as I stared it though, the markers started to die, and I knew it wasn't going to turn out. I'm glad that my plans didn't work out, because I like the background the way it ended up. It make the radio stand out.



After doing the radio, I started working on 4 still lives. Each one in a different medium. This one is done in chalk pastels. The yellow background was not my original idea, in-fact, it wasn't my idea at all. BUT I am so happy that I listened because it makes the eggs look 10x better!

Impasto Cows


...Well steers, not cows. 

This past month I have created two paintings of the same steer, #55, using palette knives. The first one that I did, the more depressed looking of the two, was for a birthday present. I liked the steer so much that I painted him again, this time in a more unique and happy way. I like both of them; #55 is a great model.

In other news I opened up an etsy recently! If you have seen any prints that you liked on here, odds are they are now up for sale here!!! 

Moo.
