This is a bit messy, but I like it messy sometimes. This Love Your Body piece isn’t inspired by one photograph but a collection of them. I created this without the use of of a model. I like how the quick lines and subtle color creates some emotion in this piece.

Daily Creativity: Pear Shaped?
4/5/2014
Pear Shaped? We’ve all heard it before. Are you a pear shape? An apple shape? You’re neither. You’re person shaped. People come in different shapes and sizes, we aren’t apples, we aren’t pears, we’re people. You may remember me doing an apple shape painting last year.
I made this using watercolor and blending marker mode in ArtRage on my iPad, it’s pretty neat being able to mix mediums without the hassle of waiting for something to dry.
I haven’t been able to do many creations this week, between a huge travel day and a nightmare of delays, then a full work week where I was only getting three hours of sleep a night, which resulted in me getting sick, it’s just been a nightmare. When talking to me husband on the phone about my mood he said “Have you been keeping up with your daily creativity?” I said what time do I have, but his point was valid, even with the little time I had, not creating was taking another toll on me, a mental one.
Also Art Month is over, but lent continues, so these will come pretty regularly till easter.
Daily Creativity: Love Your Body – Wishing for summer
3/24/2014
Wishing for Summer – This Love Your Body painting is a self portrait. Last year my sister snapped a photo of me at the beach and I loved it. I’m truly wishing for summer, missing feeling sun on my face so I painted this one in all oranges.
Painted using the watercolor settings in ArtRage on my iPad.
