Daily Creativity: Love Your Body

LoveYourBody-FBP-3-smLove Your Body, inspired again by the Full Body Project by Leonard Nimoy. I like the feeling green gives the pose, and wanted to have a bright background, as if she was looking into something bright on the horizon. Watercolor on paper. 3/15/2015

Daily Creativity: Love Your Body, Full Body Project Style

love-your-body-the-fates-smI told you I would use the Full Body Project for inspiration for my Love Your Body series. Here it is. I feel like the photo Nimoy composed is directly inspired by Botticelli’s the Fates, which is a classic. I enjoyed painting this and chose to make the outside fates in primary colors and the central one as the secondary color they make when mixed. Painted in watercolors in ArtRage on my iPad. 2/28/2015

Daily Creativity: Live Long, and Prosper.

LLAPsmIf you were on social media tonight you would have read that everyone’s Grandpa, Leonard Nimoy has passed, as well as Maurice Hurley (a writer from Star Trek). It hit pretty hard because I’m a trekkie, Spock was my friend, Nimoy was the actor. I had known he was getting involved in photography, but didn’t realize he was the photographer behind the Full Body Project, a project that is near and dear to my heart. One of the pictures was an inspiration for my Love Your Body series. So this is in tribute to him, to the effect his character had on me, and everything. I may be using his photos as inspiration for more paintings too. Painting in ArtRage on the iPad. 2/27/2015
