Final Project: Final Post

These are my final paintings. Overall I am happy with the outcome because they are visually interesting. They also have a believable quality to them (despite their cartoon quality). I worked about as much as I could without going brain dead. I might go in and work them a little further later. 

It seems as if art sometimes has a mind of its own. Even though I intended on making these more painterly, they seemed determined to be animations. I tried to work painterly elements back into them after they were complete. The last painting I did (which is the last one on this page) seems to be in a league of its own. I think this might be because the woodwork was particularly interesting for me to draw. The composition is also more dynamic.

  2. I have to agree with Jame, these are great! Yeah, that bottom one is so typical Richmond-row-house you really should look into selling them to Richmond magazine or something...

  5. These look fantastic. The details and colors really make these pictures. That said, I think some could use a little more, like the trailer one- it looks a little sparse.
