29 Faces In May
Better late... than never, I always say!
A late night post...
Sketch # 5 and # 6
are created using 4" x 4" mini canvases.
Face # 5
Frida Kahlo
I feel this painting still needs a little more work...
Face # 6
Is completed with all the elements I wanted to apply.
To add anything more... would create a overwhelming effect!
A "busy" feeling.
Working with these mini canvases allows me to continue
on the same theme of sketching faces,
but on a different scale.
I need that.
As an artist, I am discovering...
It is a must to have a variety of mediums to work and play with.
Otherwise...
I will lose interest and soon my "mojo" will run dry!
Something for all of us to think about...
It is not so much we can not create.
As to what inspires us to get our fingers dirty with paint!
Happy Monday!
I am enjoying your May face work April! I especially like Frida and your version - which was immediately recognized by me :)

Enjoy your visit :]
It really bums me out that I did not see this 29 faces of May until now probably too late to join in huh? Think they may do it again in June? I'd love to take part!
ReplyDeleteHi!! :]
DeleteDon't be sad... give it a try.
You should email the host, and see if she will allow you to enter...it is worth a shot!! :]
Thank you stopping by, always enjoy your company. ((hugs))

ReplyDeleteHi Andria! :]
DeleteThank you for stopping by... love your company. :]
Enjoy the 29 Faces series.
Love the faces! I also recognized Frida! I think your idea of working in a different scale is excellent! I already tried working in colors that I normally don't and it worked out much better than I thought! I also started working on some pages that are about 8x10 which is really hard for me since now I'm used to working on a smaller scale. In school, all we worked on were pages that were 18x24 and I couldn't image working on anything smaller! I'm enjoying my new work and one of these days I'll post them.
ReplyDeleteHello Karenann! :]
DeleteYes, I find it very interesting... how we can stretch ourself in different directions as artists.
I love it!!! Something good comes from it, growth...
Thank you for stopping by and being apart of this artful journey of 29 Faces In May. ((hugs))
Hey, that's the same size of mini-canvas that I work on sometimes. It's fun, isn't it!? They both look great!
ReplyDeleteCreative minds think alike!! ;]
DeleteYes, I am having fun with the mini-canvas.
Thank you for stopping by, enjoy...
These are wonderful April! I'm so in love with #6. Is she perhaps for sale????
ReplyDeleteHello Lorinda!
