this was an unusual assignment.
our instructor gave us a large list of sayings & phrases that had to do with eyes. We were expected to illustrate one, hopefully without being very literal. Here are two different color versions:
I used gouache and ink on rives BFK.
This next one was a quickie for a story from a book called "The Season of Divorce" by John Cheever, which is about a husband and wife in the 50's who end up getting divorced. It was a very good story, I hope to find the book someday. the piece feels unfinished, mainly because I worked on it for no longer than 2 hours:
and this is a self portrait from my painting techniques for illustrators class, done in oils -
all of these pieces were ones that I sort of didn't know how to feel about, or I felt rather negative about. Yet they are all very important little pieces of learning, and so I feel they are worth blogging. There is a large update in the works on allll the oil paintings I've been doing the last two semesters. when I can take photos, whenever that is.
