I've been working on a few things that have taken up all my time in addition to all the life activities. I think I may have mentioned that my maternal grandmother passed away a month ago. Her rememberance and service was over a weekend and I traveled to visit my family. Anytime I visit my family I expect to get sick the week after, this was no exception.

Anyway. I've got one last portrait for the Chipin Campaign and then I'll be able to send them all out. As I search fo rthe face to draw large I've been sketching in a cheapo sketchbook I've been prepping the pages with acrylic. I like the process so I've started to try it on loose paper. Same journaling style process but on nice apper. So far I really dig it. I started out with covering some old images, okay, all the old images from the Face Experiment. I was surprised at how little the watercolor lifted into the white paint and the subsequent colors. I'm using a lot of stencils and also pressing off the excess paint on the stencils onto pages. I'm really enjoying that printmaking like look.

Anyway, here are some pics:
