I’ve been enjoying the portraits and I think I’m going to expand out their themes a bit more but maintain the same feel. If you’re interested in having your portrait painted in this style make sure to get in touch with me and let me know.

New Painting – Constricted

Ela — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 04:04:14 +0000

Got around to photographing this painting today. It’s part of the Morphology series. It’s a 12″ x 12″ canvas. Mixed media (collage, oils.) I have a few more from the series in progress. A suspension worm-girl among them. She’ll probably be finished before the rest.

I stretched a 38″ x 30″ canvas today so I hope to get started on that soon as well. Most likely it will be part of the series.

I can feel ideas churning in my gut, so by tomorrow I should have a finished preliminary drawing and be able to start on the base collage.

Basically I just hope to get some sleep tonight. I like the creative energy and everything, but it tends to keep me awake if I don’t submit to its will immediately. You know in Audition when the woman pokes the needles into the guy’s eyes? It’s something like that.
