Onward and Upward

I've been learning a lot over the course of the last few paintings I've done. Such as you can't make every piece precious. I started out believing that everything I do should be good enough for the portfolio; if it is wasn't, then I had failed somehow. But I'm finding that's not necessarily going to be true, and that's okay.

There are parts of this piece that I like. Parts I don't. Parts that should have been planned better. It could use a little more work, but I'm already thinking about the next thing.

Onward and upward!

Angry Ogre

This guy here had to be re-done for my billy goats painting. I kept changing my mind about what he should look like, and therefore kept painting over him until he looked incredibly overworked. So when the rest of the piece is all done I will stitch this ogre into it in Photoshop. I'm much happier with the look of him now.

Heffalumps and Woozles

I finally finished (mostly) this painting, which I began forever ago!
