This is going to be my next full size oil painting... maybe

Commissions

This one is for my lovely former roommate, Emily White :)
There's still a lot of work to be done, but it's not bad for a start.

I drew something! It's a Christmas miracle :)

Stuck in my head:

Change of Time - Josh Ritter

I had a dream last night
I dreamt that I was swimming
And the stars up above
Directionless and drifting
Somewhere in the dark
Were the sirens and the thunder
And around me as I swam
The drifters who'd gone under

Time love
Time love
Time love
It's only a change of time

I had a dream last night
And rusting far below me
Battered hulls and broken hardships
Leviathan and Lonely
I was thirsty so I drank
And though it was salt water
There was something 'bout the way
It tasted so familiar

The black clouds I'm hanging
This anchor I'm dragging
The sails of memory rip open in silence
We cut through the lowlands
All hands through the saltlands
The white caps of memory
Confusing and violent

I had a dream last night
And when I opened my eyes
Your shoulder blade your spine
Were shorelines in the moon light
New worlds for the weary
New lands for the living
I could make it if I tried
I closed my eyes I kept on swimming

New things:

I still have no idea how to format anything on this blog... At any rate, the first image is a detail of the bare bones of a watercolor that I'm going to be working on tonight. Clear gesso on a thin piece of cardboard, yummy.

The second painting is on canvas. It's 25'' X 27" or something weird like that. Watercolor, graphite, and gesso. I wish it looked as good in person as it does in the photo.

The third is a tiny little wood panel... it's probably about 8"X 6"? I dunno. It was based at first on blind contours of fabric, then I filled in and went over them.
