Honey

Really enjoyed working with yellow this week. It's spring already, so only seemed right to go with something more vibrant.


Using wet on wet is a pretty standard technique with acrylics. and I was stunned at how much more fun  it was. Especially the hair looks fluffier and lighter.


This month will be the Sekkaido competition, and this year I'm looking to stun.

Red! (and yellow)

Again couldn't resist the red tube! 


Working with the Bugs-Eye-View idea in mind, having some sharp colors to break up the thick grass or woody look is important. Lego figures, M&M's and fruits are simple to get hold of and make for great still life studies. A good chance to work on my perspective and color understandings.
