base coats before carving
my final piece has me getting ready for the end of this quarter. I wish i had started it sooner so each layer could dry, something i will try again in the future. all that is left is to carve in the bubbles. I will spend most of the day Tuesday doing this and Wednesday will be spent trying to get everything to the studio and putting a final edit on my paper. some time on Wednesday and Thursday I will be holding a editing session in the studio. I’m all set to finish this project out and take a break before I get back into my main medium, watercolor.
I’m looking forward to winter break and trying out some new things as well as updating my YouTube channel and my etsy shop. I didn’t think I would actually miss making my weekly video and making jewelry for my shop while taking this class but I actually did. I look forward to this piece the most out of all five of the pieces for this project. It probably will take me the same amount of time and concentration as the other four did. I really feel like all five will be in conversation with each other and I look forward to uploading my paper as will as all the pieces displayed as a final post when this is all said and done.
so the process of this piece is slow layering. I have the gesso, then a yellow, white, and phalo blue under painting as well as then layering more white over the blue before proceeding to this step.
personal research on this is so far that I have a final image in mind and I hope that I can find a way to lose myself in the process of painting this final painting one last time.
