Played some board games with my sisters.
Went to my nieces birthday party.
Played some piano (me mashing keys without the dedication to learn a song).
Did some drawing.
Continuation of that flower heart thing from earlier probably 8-12 hrs in. Not sure what I want to do. I feel like if I continue it will be another 200 hrs and I think I may have reuined it at this point. Shelving it for now or forever.
Here are some notes for something I started the other day. Unsure if I'll continue it. I think it would be about 3' x 2' oil painting. Keep thinking ehh let's do it but then worry my work is "cringe". Eh writing "cringe" was "cringe". I think this one could be done in a year.
The woman's is a patchwork of different faces. (Orientation based on her position) her right eye (realism) showing pity and sorrow looks down on a figure. The figure (illuminated in blue) is skeletal thin in rags and sits on a single beam of metal.
Her left eye (cubism) is alert or shocked, looks on a figure in the bottom left of the screen. Nude shot of a person from behind. Covered in blood that is raining from above.
This is what would be in the bottom left section. It shows a pair of legs. Blood has pooled beneath them from a shower of blue/red droplets the left leg holds all of the weight, while the right one hovers centermeters of the ground. Debating doing just the legs up to the calf, to avoid nudity and help keep the piece becoming 9' x 6' and probably quadrupling in time.
Also would allow for more of the viewers time looking at how the blood sticks to the feet and their weight.
The lips and teeth will be important. There are two mouths situated together. Her right would be portrait perspective. The left is a 3/4 view and shows the left tooth biting into the lip.
Think I went too far on the gum line. There is a denting effect happening as well near the gum line that is too pronounced.
Trying to figure out the weight on that foot with the side perspective is giving me some difficulties.
Need to make sure that I extend the toes at an angle or else I will get some bad perspective.
The foot is not quite as vertical as I would like it. Will have to try again.
I'm debating on hiring someone to do some life drawing posing for me. I guess I will need to talk to the arts college about it and make sure I do it appropriately. Lol maybe I'll Google open source feet images.
