HotDot

This is the most recent painting I have been working on. I absolutely love how this painting is going. Originally, I thought I would have that advertisement kind of background with one larger figure draped around the image, however, that changed. The bottom looks flat so I am currently working on going in and pulling the ground out, giving it more of a landscape feel. Also, the hotdog itself, in color, stands out a lot in comparison to the figures. So I am going to go back in and tone down the colors some.

Size: roughly 3'x4'

Materials: Oil on canvas

Changing up the Forms

My goal with these was to continue with my forms but to change them up. I did a lot of research and looking at images within the Ethiopian culture. These are mainly just sketches. There are two landscape kind of images, but other than that, they are all forms.

Materials: Color pencil on paper

Apple Landscape (drawing)

This is suppose to look as though it is a landscape, with an apple as the land... Not sure what I think about it though. The figures are suppose to look as though they are sinking into the space, however, I don't fully think it give it that feel. And then the background is full of text relating to the idea.

Materials: Marker, pen, whiteout, and watercolor wash
