day #365 - the end of an era

I thought I was on top of it; I had finished early and was looking for a movie to watch already 3 hours ago. And I don't know how time went by. A phonecall, some networking studying, some online shopping and here we are, already past the time for an early movie. Regardless, today is a special day. The blog is over! I finished 365 days of daily painting and recording it, whatever that means. A big part of the process I will have to keep doing mainly for myself.

day #115 - a little something...

 


Arghh, I had all these new materials and instead I worked with my ipad. Anyway, it's one of the better days - I tried to avoid practice (but at the end I gave in a did some little gestures not to break the streak) and most of what I did was attempts at perspective; a 40s racer and a building block.

Earlier I did a couple hours of studies on the asaro head and the planes of the head.

Overall I'm keeping that while I didn't go completely wild, I managed not to focus on dry studies, and  I like the results too. time for bed.
