Art Process Detail

This is a portion of an art piece I’m working on.

iPhone Photo edit: Roses

I would play around with the filters and photo editing controls to get an image you are pleased with. Try adjusting the exposure or highlights. Play around with it and see what you come up with.

Gloss for Paint

Gloss is a type of medium that can be mixed with different acrylic paint colors to give your matte paint a glossy-er look. Or you can add just a bit of color to the gloss for a varnish. Not all glosses are built for oils or acrylics so read the labels to make sure you get the right kind of gloss for your project.

Interior Home Art for Mom

I fixed the image into a frame at my mother’s home. Cropped. Slightly elongated. I wanted to see how the colors would compliment her interior space. Not sure yet if this work is meant for her space. She loves it, so that’s a good start.

Paint Pens for Pokémon Room Painting

Two important things I learned from this project, which will be repeated again later. #1 Paint down, gravity is your friend with paint pens. #2 Don’t forget to wait until the paint dries.

The Cactus Stays

Often times I paint over some of my used canvases because the art was initially created as a quick sketch or teaching exercise. Yet every so often one gets in with the family.

Carrie at the Salon by Deborah Willis

Carrie in the Salon photo by Deborah Willis. The experience of black hair salons and what this scared space actually means. Understood as a non-negotiable experience used to uplift and protect our crowns. This is my take on the art work.
