New progress of a painting video series

011.jpg

The idea came to me as I was starting another background underpainting, to film each step as I go. What you see is the raw footage, unedited, uploaded straight to YouTube from my iPhone. I'm holding my phone while i'm filming, so please excuse the camera movement. Boy is it hard to hold my phone and paint. lol! Here are the first three of six quick little vids (approximately 1 minute or less in length) showing each step in the progress of one of my background underpaintings I worked on yesterday. The part you don't see in the first video is where I used a tube of paint to write words on the canvas....I needed my other hand to hold the canvas still while I wrote....sometimes I wish I had three hands. lol! Enjoy :D

A little warmup

Decided I had to clean up the worktable today before getting started...only had room to work on that little 5x5 from the previous post and I wanted to warmup by doing some background underpainting first. This is two I started as one painting. After I work on finishing yesterday's painting, I'll look at these and see what's waiting there for me to paint. :D

Listening

Aiden's back at school (his first day) and I'm getting used to having a quiet house again. Much easier to listen to God's voice without all the competition. Even though it took me a few hours to shift gears and get into the studio today, I'm so glad I listened to His prompting and set my fears and doubts aside and pulled out the paint. Now I'd better stop and eat some lunch since i gotta pick up Aiden in an hour. So easy to not take care of myself with no one else here to remind me it's time to eat. Lol!
