| Watercolor finish, the Court Boy. Mairin-Taj Caya 2010. |
When it comes to painting, I find my desired aesthetic not yet achieved. This work has an all-around youthful, child-like cheer which rather startled me upon completion. Still, I think I made some technical improvements.
Unfortunately, the scanner was just slightly too small for the whole, and so I ended up with an inch or so cut off on either side. I will look to improve this error where I can.
Where are you heading towards, in terms of painting?
ReplyDeleteDo you know how to do the two part scan for larger images?
Good question.
ReplyDeleteI really value the crisp and lyrical application of a combination of professionals; Alan Lee, Charles Santore, and PJ Lynch to name the big ones. I also value the ability some illustrators have with using a combination of oils and watercolor in the breadth of their work. I have dabbled in both of these with pleasure, and would like to build on both of them as best I can.
As for your other question, I have heard of the process, yet have not done it myself yet. I plan to.
Whenever I found the Toadstools pub, this guy is hanging on the wall. He'll be very much at home there.
ReplyDeleteAs a later response to Helaine here, I do know how to scan in two parts now, and I really need to re-scan this guy! He is sorely lacking in a good presentation, I'm afraid.
ReplyDeleteTo Mal,
I look forward to arranging something with you then!
