Escape-Artist Note cards


The type came across a bit smaller than I wanted. But in a nutshell I would really like to see these mini-prints of your paintings selling like hotcakes at the upcoming Sonlight Fair! Contact me soon if you want to be a part of an artcard-collection.

Thank you so much for the sweet card you sent Ceili-she was thrilled BEYOND words to see her artwork turned into cards! So she is a resounding 'YES', to be a part of an artcard collection! See you in the morning!

Our Last Project!

Miss S. Noel has another one of the most delicate renderings this time. Nicely done drawing as well. She could go in and add some shadows if she wanted, but I'm enjoying the coolness of this Canadian mountain scene. Miss G. Smith had perhaps the MOST challenging location of them all. I didn't tell her at the time that even I was a bit intimidated by the central falls and all the details in the vertical rock walls that form this chasm. (G: I know you struggled to get the borders 'clean' so I took the liberty of swiping them with my Photoshop 'eraser' for the web-pic.) Doesn't this look like a pastel-painting? I like it very much... Miss C. Lee chose to work on the smoother of our paper's sides. Can you recognize this landmark? It's only one of the most famous buildings in the entire world! What a nice way to wrap up the year. Well done, Missy. Miss R. Fadler has used two concepts to create depth in her painting of two pyramids: increasing the "mi

Designs From Paintings

Image
Using a photo-manipulation program - in this case, Corel PhotoPaint - it's possible to have even more fun with colors and patterns you've dreamed up...all without touching your paintings. I used to like to make these designs then print them on high- or 100% cotton papers and either cover mini-books or do origami with them. Miss R. Fadler's "Finland Farm" turned into a repeating design (tiled). Miss M. Wolfe's "Free-For-All" Aussie beach, tiled. Miss G. Smith's "Tilting Barns" tiled. Miss K. Breeding's "Tibet Plain w/Yaks" tiled with selective colors altered. Miss K. Breeding's "Tibet Plain w/Yaks" tiled.

Our next stop? "Yupo"

Image
Step away from your pencils...if you're putting 'transfer-graphite' on the back of your homework drawing that is. Our new paper isn't paper at all, but Yupo's 100% polypropylene! Why didn't I realize this sooner: it's so translucent we can TRACE RIGHT THROUGH IT. That's the good news. Bad news is our normally SUPER pens are not quite waterproof on it, but more good news is I have some India Ink which is, so...I get to do all 12 (!!!) ink-drawings for you. I expect, um, well, dark chocolate is always appropriate. Just kidding. Here's 'stage 1' of about 3 stages. We can't work too soupy on this surface, as it takes a bit longer to dry. If either assistant is reading this - could you bring hairdryers, too? In our first stage we'll cover our entire painting in it's Mid-tones. Sort of like below. Then stage 2'll be some darker/richer tones, followed by stage 3's lighter/brighter tones and final highlights and deepest darks. I&#
