Day 3 - Vermont Studio Center + Indiegogo Campaign

Tuesday, was a very exciting day, as my creativity was flowing. I started with a series of expressive drawing exercises to see where they will lead me, here the results:

My first attempt was rather timid. I used acrylics, charcoal, and graphite on paper.

From this...

...to this.

I love how the wall looked as I took the first painting off the wall:

I took a small break to clear all the snow that had fallen the day before on my car before it gets frozen, and to move the car to a different location so they can plow the parking lot.

Can you find my car?

I guess my color palette was influenced by the landscape colors around me!!

Second piece of paper goes on the wall...

My second attempt was a bit more bold. I used my newly made brush and Sumi Ink, besides of what I used in the first one. Here it is...

Hand-made brush using my own hair

Dipping the brush on the Sumi Ink

First marks added to the paper with Sumi Ink.
Is that a face?

More marks with the ink, and I still see a face in it.

A series of additions and obliteration, my background is done!

The end result!

My studio wall, after the second painting...

And now I'm ready for the third painting...
