Holiday Hen Card

I wanted to end this class the way I started: with chickens.

This card was fairly simple, but what sets it apart from my other works is that I experimented with fabric cutting to get that holiday sweater look. I learned that different fabrics are easier to cut than others, and that I should maybe have looked at some iron-on fabrics for this project, but I still feel they turned out OK.
Shout out to my grandmother for graciously donating her seasonal fabric!

Also, chicken sweaters do exist!

Media Sampler

Phew, this was one heck of a project! I obviously learned a lot from it, I especially learned that the little details are what really sell your piece, and that I should spend more time on the cleanup of my pieces.
I also learned that acrylic can be VERY difficult to get consistent solid colors and even harder to erase mistakes.
I also learned that if you do your under sketch in blue, do NOT start off with a blue wash as your first coat of paint, use a red under sketch instead.

Fairy Tale Project: SEALS

After looking at these concept sketches copared to the one I have in the final drawin, I think I might go with the bottom ones. I feel like I spent so much time trying to get the seal to wrap around the fish that I lost a lot of that movement and "hugry-ness" of the seal. I will let you be the judge.
