Drawing charcoal on paper
I worked on the theme of war for a competition. Difficult issue for me, I try to reconcile the ancient painting with modern painting.
I have taken inspiration from "Massacre of the Innocents" of 1600 and a little to Goya.

These are just color studies- I drew the circles, scanned them, and then printed blocks of them so I could test colors on them before I committed to an entire watercolor painting.

My wife studying for an exam. Converted to Black & White, Shadows and Highlights tweaked to produce this look. I wanted to make it look quite harsh to reflect the students mood at the time!
8/52 [Study Process]
This weeks theme was "Books" so before i went to sleep, i thought of this idea, and to remember it, i got up from bed and actually wrote down the detail on the PC. Today (sunday), I got around to doing this, and also doing actual studying. Yep, too much procrastinating during the weekdays. I wanted to do this orig...inally in a library setting, but figured that i might not get permission to do it there so i just made a setting in my house. I would have preferred the library though. Well tell me what you guys think.
please view as a series
No time like the present to really take a look at oneself....I spent the afternoon snapping photos of myself (I know...how vain.....) as a self-reflective study. (c:
I came out with loads of postable images. I tried different body positions and concentrated on the use of space around me. I'll post a sample of them over the next few days.
one thing I do know is that I need a haircut...luckily thats been scheduled with my favorite stylist Lauren. Whom I need to photograph again come to think of it...hmm....(c:

Painting this study really encouraged me to paint more quickly. I usually have trouble finishing paintings quick enough so the rough brushstrokes and abstract nature of the piece gave me the freedom to complete the painting sooner. While painting like this is quite freeing, it is also much harder than I expected to make it look like a recognisable face.
been out of Flickr for a long loong time. life's too busy now, life's different, too many things going on at the same time, too many things to think about, legit problems to worry about, piled up papers to read through and the always minimalist bank balances.
if not for those study breaks and the warm comforts of a cheap whiskey... at least its possible to attain those precious moments of complete inhibition when suddenly everything seems alright and as if God descends to put his arms on you saying everything's alright..and that you...are alright
is that comfort of certainty too much to ask for?

Compositional Study for 'The Hour Glass'
Evelyn De Morgan
Here Jane Morris poses for De Morgan's oil painting, The Hour Glass, conceived as a pictorial 'echo' of Beethoven's 'Waldstein' Sonata, which ends on 'a sudden voice of triumph'. It is a meditation on mortality which in De Morgan's spiritualist philiosophy was the gateway to a finer life.
Aged sixty-five, Jane Morris was an apt model for the figure. She shared her love of music with the De Morgans, who were 'dear old friends'. The tapestry sketched in the background evokes those at Kelmscott Manor, although is not copied from them.
