Final(ish) Goldilocks painting


So, I am pretty much done with my Goldilocks painting. I just need to add some more highlights and shadow. This is my first oil piece since college, so it was definitely a fun (and challenging) experience... also not to mention a long process. Yep, between work, getting the GirlsDrawinGirls Vol. 2 book together, and organizing GDG for an art show at the Hive March 1st, I have not gotten a lot of sleep. Yep... tonight, after I publish this blog, I plan on reading, sleeping (oh, the joy of sleep!), then taking a relaxing yoga class in the morning. Hurray for my art break!

Ok, here's the final line drawing for Goldilocks. Sorry about the quality of the scan, but I need to get to a-painting, and since I am painting it with water soluble oils, I have little time for fiddling with the scan quality, since this stuff is due this weekend. I am going to try to have more art other than this piece. I will post more once more is done... yowza! What a crazy week!

Fairy Tale Art


For GirlsDrawinGirls' next book, we will be focusing on Fairy Tales. My Fairy Tale is Goldilocks. I am going to have a finished piece by the week of the 11-15th. So far, here is a sketch of Goldilocks, minus the 3 bears. Enjoy!
