Big

As I mentioned before, I'm working on two paintings for the Emerson salon. One of which is about 48x48, and so big we couldn't fit it in Alex's car...so, being the brave little artist I am, I trekked across town with a huge-ass canvas on THE BUS.



I enlisted some resourcefulness, and hooked my computer up to the projector in our front room (soon to leave, when my roommate moves out at the end of the week), and projected my design on canvas for pencilling...voila. Just a few more pencil tweaks and this mammajamma will be ready to paint.

First, however, I need to work on the smaller of the two paintings, get it ready to go, and get it up in the Salon as priority #1.

With my roommate moving out, that means my rent's gonna hike up 50%...blarg....regardless, it'll mean I'll be less stressed, have more space, and I'll end up doing more artwork as a result.

With my hike in rent, though, I'm gonna need to find a second job or SOMETHING until I start school and can leech a little bit of money out of student loans to pay for rent....the prospect of going into a buncha debt is NOT one I'm happy about, but I'll be doing what I want to in school....regardless (insert shameless self-plug here), if you're interested in helping me out by commissioning me to do some artwork for you, I'd be delighted...:D

Email me for commissions.
