Day N+1 – Sunshine
January 22, 2009
Only had an hour to work on it before company came over. So I just got the sun painted and the hedge under the lighthouse and the hill for the castle.
Sunball texture you want to touch!
But the sun texture is very cool!

It did waaay not flow easily today. Not happy with it but its still an improvement so I guess that’s a plus.
I’m going to need to buy some more blue paint before I start to play with the sunlit sky.. Gah and I’ve used almost half a tube of white so far.. oh well.
Kinda weird tho.. I didn’t work on the parts I wanted to work on..
Day 5 - The Darkening
{edit: oops this was day 5}
Painting- day 4
January 20, 2009
got a good 2 1/2 hours of slapping pigment around.. was nice but eventually aching feet and the palette told me it was time to call it a day.
when theres no more room on the palette its time to stop.
I got 2 sides of the planet rendered… Not really happy about the empty hillside one… but not really sure what to add to it. maybe something will come to me overnight.
Kinda went totally ocd on the plantlife (thanks wen)
here’s a detail
Anyway.. it’s a good day’s progress i think.. tomorrow I’m seriously going to have to tackle the gears in the planet and figure out how to get things to work together.. oh well.

Painting – day 3
January 20, 2009
Got a good couple hours in last night. I was originally just going to put in the base colors for the earth and grass and block out the buildings… buuut.. I simply had to paint something instead of just filling in boring flat blocks of color.
I wound up having a great time, put on the headphones and tuned out the universe for 2 hours… bliss!
Anyway here’s a crappy cellphone picture (color corrected in photoshop) (and the trees were still wet so that’s why theyre shiny.)
Day three- earth and grass
Art weekend… succcess
January 18, 2009
Spent the weekend playing around with acrylics with Wendy.
Took the plunge and started on a big canvas.. It’s definitely a big project, maybe a little too big.. but it’s actually been a lot of fun so far..
first steps
here’s the (1) initial sketch done as a doodle during a meeting at work. (2) A brief color rough / enlargement done in about 20 minutes on the pc. and (3) finally the first couple of scribbles to get it onto the freshly gessoed canvas.
Drawing on canvas.
Here’s a picture of the canvas with more of the sketch transferred.
Further Blues
The Sun and Moon and the Stars
Not a bad start Got most of the base colors for everything laid in..
