I am having so much fun making the raster stamps. Molds take time to dry and the casts take time to dry. I am not a patient person, but the test prints are already so satisfying. How will they work with these drawings? I can't wait to find out. https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-17022021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CLZzTH2r2_f/?igshid=9j32j5fcoa2j

The template for the small raster is done. I have to wait t w o d a y s for the epoxy to dry on the stamp I made for the large raster before I can even test it out. The suspense is killing me. In the meantime: https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-12022021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CLM6wSvlosF/?igshid=1ga2tpmf9eeq8

I've spent a few days making tools so I can add raster to these drawings. Still not sure how they will turn out, but I've had so much fun experimenting with materials. Stay tuned! https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-11022021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CLKV9oBlZHv/?igshid=zuhmujo3wqm2

If you don't have a brother, you should definitely get one. 5 out of 5 stars, will recommend 👍👍 https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-26012021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CKhJPfpr2dP/?igshid=16kl0te96mxdz

The mistake was to always follow the instruction of the reference instead of listening to the work itself https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-25012021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CKemLtUreZy/?igshid=1r866n17iy0jm

I have to remember to be more deliberate with the wide brush. https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-21012021-02 https://www.instagram.com/p/CKUS_9ungRO/?igshid=1tgmd1dltlity

The sun always puts me in a good mood, especially in winter. Might have something to do with emphasizing the single solitary breast 🤔👻 https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-21012021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CKToEPDrxP2/?igshid=tzdqx07wy8tp

Guys. I'm so happy with this one, I can't even tell you. It's closest I've come to what I wanted to do when I first started this series a year ago. I'll likely lose my way again and start tightening, tightening, tightening, but I'll find my way back to it in time. Here's to another year of beautiful women in beautiful poses 🥂 https://enabarkley.com/artwork/croquis-female-nude-06012021-01/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ9HQQYH3yS/?igshid=o893oimnfu1m
