I see what you did thar, Blogspot;; sneaky you switchin' to the new layout while I was away~
Well, Happy October peeps! I don't know why I still bother to update since myself and everyone else is quite busy at this time of the year... school and holidays are approaching faster than one thinks. And my Halloween costume this year will be the most last-minute thing ever, oh dear. ):
Anyways I thought I'd tell you about that thesis I mentioned earlier... Well I decided to do my thesis on no other than Marie Antoinette for Kings & Queens. MA is an actual historical queen (So Tom of the Illustration Dept can't argue with that) and she was considered Queen of Fashion at her time, so if that's not a win-win situation, I don't know what that is! I'm really into my subject and I plan to do this in oil paint. My Pictorial Problems(thesis) instructors are adorable and helpful, and has a style I can relate to.
It's going to be so much work to prepare a minimum of 8 finishes by the end of April but I totes want my thesis in the show. So yeah. Werrrrkk~
And I thought I'd throw in a little something... my swamp creature lady.
I have an obsession working on gray surfaces now; working on midtones is a completely different experience than working on white. Gray is most helpful for coloring, I think.
