The Two Newest…

So I just had the two newest pieces photographed over the weekend. Before I go back to my marathon tracing event (aargh, braindeath), I thought I’d throw them up here, because all you’ve seen is awkward hanging from clothes hangers and badly lit crappy photos. And that seems mean when I have much better pictures available now.

I finished In Deep (Bathtub 2) in June…I love this cat…

The fabric on her face has those lines across it…and no, I didn’t fussy cut it. I had barely enough of it to cut out the pieces I did…

The other figure is upside down…and sleeping…

This is the first of the bathtub series…expect more of them.

I keep drawing them. It’s a nice frame to whatever it is I’m saying. This is 40″ w x 50″ h.

Then right away, I started Part-Time Oasis…I actually did the original top of the drawing for this more than once back in January…

And then drew the whole thing to size back in June. Lots of little pieces for such a small work…

It was mostly flesh fabrics in the end…and a heart for the cat, because Kimberly asked.

It turned out well…like what I saw in my head. That’s always a plus.

It’s 18″ w x 40″ h. And they were both done in about 8 weeks flat. Not bad.

Now I move on to a giant huge beast. It won’t be done particularly soon. More about it tomorrow. Right this second, I must go back to the light table that is my master today.
