Update on the Drawing of My Female Relatives

So today I worked on the images of my sister and added my great grandmother on my Father's side.  I just can't get the face of one of my sister's right. It's probably because of the photo I am using. The newer part of the other sister is pretty close to what she looks like. Now I need to put in my aunt on my father's side, fix the bottom left figure and then start adjusting the values. I guess there is still a lot to do!

Lunacolia

I just watched the new Lars von Trier film Melancholia. The style is very mice, but it is so Von Trier. The music is from Tristan and Isolde and it is appropriate for the film and over the top. I can't really say that I enjoyed the film, but I am glad that I saw it.

I had taken this picture of the moon since it is closer right now than it has been in years and somehow it is fitting for a blog about Von Trier's film.

I also continued work on my drawing. I think it may be done. I have to look at it a bit now and think.

Same Old Thing

 

So I was able to work a little on this this late afternoon. (For some reason I have a splitting headache today.) Anyway - two more figures to go and then background adjustments. Can't decide whether to include the airplane or not!

A Nw Plan for My Final Project

So today I've been working on the composition of my final project for drawing. I haven't quite got it, but here is an idea I am playing with - now I have to figure out where the dark and light should go, where the focus.

Drawing Update

Well, not too much news here, but there is a phoebe family living near the house again. They keep an eye on us.



It has been a really rough couple of weeks, so my family sent me beautiful flowers - orchids and roses. They are absolutely gorgeous!


I've started working on my homework for art class, but am not too happy with it yet. Some of the people aren't too accurate, but it is taking a long time to do all the rendering. Here is what I have so far. Tomorrow night I'll try to fill in the other figures and then adjust the dark and light.

New Version Family

Family Drawing (Wow, this has changed!)

Updated version of the family drawing. (A new updated version is below.)


I'm still not finished, but I had some space to fill so I got an idea and went with it.


It is not finished, but it is starting to take shape.
