Not much stuff lately, I've been trying to focus on finished work, including commissions.
My anthro project is going really slow, I can't finish stuff, struggling with poses but I haven't lost interest yet.
I’m starting to put in whole hours in my work
Trying to be conscious about the lay-in, shape design, rhythm and all the beautiful energy that builds up at the early stage
But the more I spend on a painting, the easier it is to overwork and ruin it. It’s so easy to add a little bit here, a little bit there and suddenly, without even noticing, you lost all your initial shapes and you have a big blob that makes no sense.
So from time to time, when I realized I screwed up, I just consciously try to bring up the initial shapes again, over the rendered piece.
I keep getting parts in my painting that I really love, and they’re not always part of my rational mind, but more like intuitive decisions.
