The only one in the group that's still painting is Nugget. This is her first oil painting... yes, oils. Can you believe it? I've never painted with oils. It's called "Bamboo Panda"... and it's going up in my office at work.</div><br />

So apparently in the land of the blind the man with one eye is king. In our novice group of painters, having done a few crappy paintings in the past was enough to qualify me as king and the person to field the questions of which I had very few answers. Or at least not the correct answers. I don't know how comfortable I am in this role since I really don't know what I'm doing when it comes to painting. If you want someone to show you how to knit, I'm your girl.<br /><br />So my painting...<br />I had a few things I wanted to try to do. I wanted to stay away from outlining and try to be more realistic with the paper fringe texture on the pinatas. So far I think it's more successful with the decapitated horse pinata than with the green-eyed monster pinata, which looks more like a muppet. And I wanted to really push the pose because I think my posing skills are weak. Afterall, no amount of detail or rendering can hide a weak pose. I still have another painting session's worth of work to do in order to finish my painting before we go to Mexico.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDc6v6bkrxQod3dZM5ahxT0c9B-kpHsDkUIABuesVZN_tai_V5S6uuefen0Y-X1izM8a0azL7btyZ4jpXA8lczM0O1RbI2Hy5OVVtw146A8fuex9bHrrX5Yca4ZNGxXO8Ui8sXjPjFoGg5/s1600/IMG_4214sm.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDc6v6bkrxQod3dZM5ahxT0c9B-kpHsDkUIABuesVZN_tai_V5S6uuefen0Y-X1izM8a0azL7btyZ4jpXA8lczM0O1RbI2Hy5OVVtw146A8fuex9bHrrX5Yca4ZNGxXO8Ui8sXjPjFoGg5/s320/IMG_4214sm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473624457849273538" border="0" /></a>Painter Powerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00325375937458263554noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572259305432213491.post-39748123506451546662010-05-18T12:42:00.000-07:002010-05-18T12:47:20.848-07:00Teen's Commentary on the First AssignemtI had a lot of fun painting! It was fun to play with the paint colours! Colour Theory is fun! i really enjoyed it when I had my wine hand in hand with my paint brush ;) I agree with Jenn that we should try to push ourselves in both the drawing and painting aspects. Also to avoid the solid colour stuff. <br /><br />It was fun and I can't wait for the next assignment! When will we draw the words?!?!!?!?!?<br /><br />Also, a snack sounds <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">scrumcious</span>!Painter Powerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00325375937458263554noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572259305432213491.post-42940037250290598252010-05-18T11:49:00.000-07:002010-05-18T11:53:59.687-07:00Jenn's Thoughts on Month 1Well, after completing my first painting in the group it is decided that I cannot, in fact, paint. My goals for next month are to steer away from the elementary style ground and sky, as well as incorporating some sort of method into the painting, more advanced than a paint-by-numbers-esque style. I am hoping to at least advance my drawing skills throughout this process and come up with some cool stuff as we go!<br /><br />Looking forward to the next assignment. Also, perhaps I will put out a snack for a certain young lady who pesters as soon as she finishes her painting ;)Painter Powerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00325375937458263554noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572259305432213491.post-52408610860099361902010-05-17T19:47:00.000-07:002010-05-17T20:04:12.806-07:00Commentary from MikaAs you may know my painting was done 1st.<br />I wanted to put the paintings in the order that they were finished.<br />but the boss (PEANUT) Said NO!<br />Anyway this is the order it would be in if we posted the paintings in the order that they were finished then it would go like this...<br />Me (nugget) - Jenn (jubb jubb) - Christine (teen) - Arlyn (peanut) then eventually Ellery (rutty)<br />would finish.Painter Powerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00325375937458263554noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572259305432213491.post-57385633813980359962010-05-17T11:15:00.001-07:002010-05-17T11:21:02.895-07:00Commentary from EL Rutty...So last night was the first painting night (as can be seen from the previous post) and I'd say it went fairly well.<br /><br />What I learned from the experience...<br /><br />- Painting is hard.<br />- I don't know color theory at all.<br />- I never have enough of a color, or too much.<br />- I don't want to do another painting with such little details again.<br /><br />I only finished half of the painting, and even what I did finish, I didn't get a chance to do the outlining for detail...<br /><br />I believe Arlyn and I were the only two who didn't finish, so we will have to have another session before the month is up and new words are picked.<br />last night we also discussed bringing in a guest teacher along the way... hm. Wonder who we could sucker into coming by our little group...<br /><br />HI BRISSON!!!Painter Powerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00325375937458263554noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4572259305432213491.post-34685501852960220112010-05-16T21:12:00.001-07:002010-05-16T21:30:15.920-07:00Our First Painting Night<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiavzCNd89FNzO8pGC2wJ8JoHZe_tJTyt3fpUGQIw4ocwIMNDrlrpTqi0eX9TLRW_wjWq9ZJSVUHkTdPEiPo-3BUA-fqYt17bt1QcZ-tM2ndE1crbVn1rrT50Bu86Gr2dH6lp7u6eZI3oyM/s1600/IMG_4207sm.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiavzCNd89FNzO8pGC2wJ8JoHZe_tJTyt3fpUGQIw4ocwIMNDrlrpTqi0eX9TLRW_wjWq9ZJSVUHkTdPEiPo-3BUA-fqYt17bt1QcZ-tM2ndE1crbVn1rrT50Bu86Gr2dH6lp7u6eZI3oyM/s320/IMG_4207sm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472087984272724626" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Jenn and Teen starting on their paintings.</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgN7UNhd78juarxnx4NGP-RGJNYIo2y7mgr3bUMkXAXKvkRUkRveASUOkVrLQbrTOJL5nep0qEqLxDlIaevnpbFWGhvPHlNR0DEsEUFBEvmYSju1_sXRY7hXhSbfVnkMcOsj9YDRLzRPtyc/s1600/IMG_4208sm.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgN7UNhd78juarxnx4NGP-RGJNYIo2y7mgr3bUMkXAXKvkRUkRveASUOkVrLQbrTOJL5nep0qEqLxDlIaevnpbFWGhvPHlNR0DEsEUFBEvmYSju1_sXRY7hXhSbfVnkMcOsj9YDRLzRPtyc/s320/IMG_4208sm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472087935084927378" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Jenn working on her background colour.

My first sketch! As you can see there are arrows indicating which of the three words is being used. I haven't decided if I am going to keep the dialogue bubbles in the painting, you will find out when I post the painting! And that mushroom like thing coming out of the jealous boy's mouth... is that thing when anime characters are stressed. Watch an anime cartoon or read Scott Pilgram and you will see the mushroom like thing come out of their mouth.. it's weird but cool at the same time!<br /><br />Enjoy!
