Painting: Untitled Progression pt. 4

tags:

topics: ArtPaintingProgression


Closer to completion, all that’s left now are tedious little details that I hope to finish some time during this week.
The picture isn’t that great, the angle is off and some of the colors got a bit washed out due to the flash, but it’s only a Work in Progress picture, once it’s finished I will properly scan it so that I can add it to my website.

It still needs a title, I can’t stand having ‘Untitled’ stuff and I can’t come up with anything else except for ‘The One with the Freaked out Bear,’ but it’s like ripping off Friends. So any ideas?

As usual, for a larger view just click the image.

Painting: ‘Untitled’ Progression pt. 3

3rd Stage of the work in progress painting, although it didn’t change much since the 2nd one, but I wanted to share it anyway! Just click the image for a bit of a larger view.

The story behind this is slowly developing into “You go take the fire escape and the teddy bear, I’ll go out the window!” but you can use your own imagination.

Painting: ‘Untitled’ Progression

It’s that time again where I say “Well, after a year..” and tell you I’ve picked up painting again, because Iris really inspired me and it’s been too long since I picked up a brush.

And this is what it got me so far, 2 and a half hours last night on getting started with some rough base coloring on a sketch I did back in December. It’s acrylics on paper (30×40 centimeters) and still needs a lot of work as you can see.
The picture is crap and it’s not doing the colors any justice because the blue is actually more green.

I don’t like painting on paper much, I prefer canvas but I don’t have any at the moment and I just really badly wanted to paint again. It’s a little getting used to again, but so far it’s enjoyable!

Photo: Chill

ChillRecently I’ve been trying to get to know my camera better because I’ve had it for almost 2 years now and up until last week all I knew for certain was what button to press to take a picture. But last week my father explained several of its settings to me and I’ve been playing around with the white balance.

So, taken from the 6th floor, hanging slightly over the balcony ledge, this lonely hut near a basketball field in front of our building. Tele lens, fluorescent white balance and a little color/contrast adjustment since it was rather pale at first.

Click it to see all sizes and view its original size because that’s how it looks best.

From 2006: Pigeon in the house

tags:

topics: AnimalsPhotography


Today I spotted 2 pigeons hanging out on our balcony and it reminded me of photos that I took back in 2006 from a pigeon that stopped by for a rest and followed me through the apartment and as she did, I took pictures that day, but yesterday I cleaned them up a bit.
Below’s the first one of the bunch, the entire set consists of 10 photos and can be found here: A Pigeon’s Journey.

Self Portrait: Wednesday Night Still

From Wednesday night, a self portrait, cleverly entitled ‘Wednesday Night Still,’ there’s another one like it, simply called Wednesday Night, it’s on my Flickr as well.

Click it to see all sizes and view its original size:
Wednesday Night Still

I don’t know how much styling wax I rubbed in my hair to get it to stand up a bit, but it took 4 washings to get it all out completely so you do the math.
I also updated my Flickr account with some other older photos.
