At Home #2: Final

4/19/2021

I finished the piece and I am very happy with how it turned out. I was very apprehensive to finish it, which is why it took me so long to finish it, because I was nervous about painting the glass and having to color match the frame behind it and figure out how the glass would distort the image of what it behind it. Overall I am very happy with the glass. I turned out much better than expected and I think it looks pretty good, considering I forgot that this project was due until the day i was due, so I painting the wine glass in my first period class. I am still obsessed with the hand on the right, specifically the wrist and forearm. I just love the way I painted it and the colors I used to help give the allusion of depth. Overall I am very pleased with this piece :))

I am apprehensive about this piece. I really liked the composition and the original photo, but the drawing seems off; i don't really know how to describe it. But I think when i painted it i made the eyes too small or something like that. I think I am going to have to go in and change a bunch of the features and perhaps change the color scheme a bit because I think it might be too purple. Hopefully it will go well.

I finished the hands and the knife today! I am almost done. I just have to do the butterfly which shouldn't take that long, but it will be weird since it is bathed in shadow. I am very happy with how the knife turned out. I tried to do some rusty parts, but they didn't really turn out well so I just glazed over them with some black and it turned out fine. I especially love the handel and all of the highlight bits. You don't really see any in the actual blade itself because it is turned against the light, but I still looks cool. The top hand looks a bit off. I don't think the blending is as good as it can be, and the fingers look a bit off(I think they might be a bit chunky looking, but that is in part because of the kind of awkward angle(especially the pinkie finger.) Regardless, I am happy with how it is turning out and I am excited to finish it this weekend.

This week I got more into my painting. I basically finished the background, as it is just black with a slight red circle  in the middle. I realized how wacky/bended the knife was, so I got a ruler out to straighten it and change the shape a bit so that it didn't look so weird. I also finished the bottom hand i think. I am very happy with how it has turned out. I think the colors look cool and the blending is oK(it could be better, but I ran out of some of the midtones towards the end and I am too lazy to make some more right now. I am excited to start working on the hand and finish the piece. I love the direction it is headed

I started my painting this week. I took reference pictures for my painting and sketched out the drawing and started on the painting. I am happy with how this is turning out. I am nervous about how the knife is going to work out, because I am not used to painting metal, let alone rust and things like that. I think i am going to bump the contrast of the painting, to make the darks of the hands/arms darker so that they blend in with the background, which will be black, more.

I finished my painting and I am very happy with how it turned out. Although it could be a bit cleaner in some places and a little better executed, i am really happy with the drama of the lighting and the mood of the piece. the mushrooms and the bark turned out even better than I thought they would, even though you can't really see the detail in the bark that well from the picture. I was very nervous for how the eye on the right would turn out because there was such a big shadow over part of it, but I am really happy with it. I think how i went about it was pretty good. I am also happy with how the hair turned out in the shadows where it really isn't in the light. Overall I am happy with this piece!

i painted the frame and i am very happy with how it turned out. It was very fun to paint, but it took a while. I am almost finished with the piece. I just need to finish the glass, which I am apprehensive of, but excited. I also glazed over some of the flowers in her hair so that the ones cast in shadow aren't as light as the other ones. I am really happy with this piece and it is so much fun to see it glitter at certain angles.

I didn't really do a lot to this painting, just painted the background which took a while because i had to so multiple coats and let them dry and i had to be very careful around the edges. The hardest part was to decide what to do with the butterfly because the back wing was practically the same color of the background, so i just added a rim of gold and painted the antennae gold like some of the other parts so that you could see them. I also painted the hair, and I am very happy with how the hair turned out. I also started painting the frame a bit, just the first coat of yellow, but i forgot to take a picture of it and it is not much different from the orange frame.

I painted everything orange in order to have a nice base color to work on top of. then i went in with some of the darker colors in order to establish the location of the darks and start working on the background. I will need to do a second coat for most of the background and refine some of the edges as well, but I am happy with the progress so far. I have also started working on the bark, but it was kind of frustrating because the paint wasn't drying as fast as i wanted it to. So i had to take a few breaks to let some of the paint dry before going back in and working on it.

I will work in some ligher values into the bark so you can actually tell what it is.
