I have been following the daily paintings of such artists as
Julian Merrow- Smith and
Duane Keiser, and have found inspiration in their works and their ability to paint everyday. I was thinking the other day that I had no projects and hadn't picked up a brush in quite a while. This was bad. So I decided I would start my own journey. I know I am lazy and cannot commit to
everyday, but I decided I would give it a try. My goal is at least once a week. I figure some weeks there will be more than one, and if history repeats itself, there will be a couple weeks of silence.
So what to paint? Those artists listed above are waaay better at still lifes than me, and
most of the fruit I eat is out of a can :). So what unique quality can I offer the art community? Quirkiness with a side of borderline insanity, and access to a lot of toys. So here it is, my inspiration:
Luckily, he has 2 faces to add variety. This one will be on happier days.
I needed some kind of control to compare my improving talent and he seemed as good a one as any. In this journey you will see his adventures in painting form. We will call it "Dinosaur VS". I have many a plans for this little fella, and I am way excited about this. Probably a little too excited....
