Lin Nazzaro 2

I knew there was another reason I needed to go back to the studio last night, besides more gesso-ing. Pictures. Dammit.

So I don't have pictures of my progress at this time, but it has been made, and I will have them soon! For now, I have pictures of sketches.

I made an underpainting of what will be a snail with the fibonacci sequence on the shell, and a funny tagline. I'm also a little over halfway done with another painting, which doesn't have a name yet, but involves an astronaut and an eye and a black hole. It needs a lot more work but it's coming together. I've never painted a closeup of an eye before so I'm kind of learning as I go.

I've also brainstormed a few more ideas for pieces, like the lungs/tree roots one which will be challenging but interesting, since there's some transparency and a lot of detail in it. And the bird one. I'm really excited about the bird one. I'm hoping the ideas keep flowing once I'm done with this round.

I'm still waiting on two tubes of iridescent oil paint, which I'm also really
excited about.
