..onto the next two…
…but first….
…remember this from way back in February last year?…
…it’s a colour guide for these….
…same pattern as last post…
…and yes…
…the colours on one piece mirror the colours on the other….
…oops…blurry….
…but you get the idea…
…right?…
…(please don’t make re-take the pic’s…it took for ages!!..and was exhausting)….
….got another A4 paintbook….
…painted in it….
…will paint in it again….
….oh crap….
…now it’s “official”….
…(officially on the list of things to paint bigger)…
…and associates….
…you gotta have a plan…
…you gotta expand on the plan…
…then you gotta execute the plan…
…(that could take a while)…
…(it involves flies)…
…(lots of them)…
…(was trying to post this yesterday but my internet connection decided otherwise)…
…(probably should have a plan involving internet connections as well)….
….even tho the entries in paintbook were only meant to be background colour guides for a larger, more complicated thing, these met with ooos and aahs in “some quarters” so I thought it wise to do them “properly” as a finished piece….
….wasn’t till after I’d finished that I realised they look like ol’ peggy square throw rugs crochet by “your nan”…..
…(possibly explains their “popularity”)….
…(297 x 420 on reclaimed ply)….
…it’s not so much I’ve bitten off more than I can chew…
…as…
…it’s impolite to talk with your mouth full…
…so I thought to myself…
…what if, instead of the colours radiating out from a point, I just jumbled them up….
…random like….
….hmmm…
…random like….
…it’s one of these….
….came with this bright idea for containing my paints aaaages ago….and have been using a cardboard mock-up of what I had in mind since then….
….finally got it made when a looming project required an up tick in how many colours I need at my finger tips….
…the paint brush hole was a late add in, necessitated by the fact that I’d no longer have space for a paint brush pot on the edge of my work space after adding the new improved paint box….
…(yes I’m still stalling for time on the big secret project)….
…(and may continue to do so for an unspecified length of “awhile”)…
Bored with a record shop.
