I couldn’t resist the pun :) Yesterday I did a watercolor where I was trying to get a galaxy look to it, it was a lot of color washes and wet washes and working to see if I could get it just right. I had used a white crayon to block the watercolor but that didn’t produce enough stars so I used some watered down acrylic paint over top. You can see the result to the right. I liked the result but I felt like I phoned it in because I was essentially just playing with technique.

Today I took a classic photo of Goza Shioda (upside down and flying) and created a silhouette of one of Tek’s favorite moves using black and dark gray ink. The ink had an interesting effect of not staining the paint so much, and letting the watercolor texture and pattern bleed through. I actually like how it came out, even though it wasn’t planned that way.

So this is actually a two daily creativity? I just built one upon the other, but I like them each separately.

Daily Creativity: Don’t Yuk other people’s Yum!

DontYUK-smToday I will give you some life advice, “Don’t YUK other people’s YUM!” This I first heard from Mr Scott Roche, but it works for so many things. from food to hobbies, to lifestyle, to core beliefs. While yes I know some might think it should be yuck, not yuk, but I liked the idea of just changing one letter and liked the pun in it, yuk, as it to mock or dismiss, not just yuck as in a vocalism of distaste. Ink and colored pencil on paper. 3/24/2014
