WOYWW: Mixed Media 'Beach Love' WIP

I'm back for my 2nd week here at WOYWW! I had fun last week!

My desk shows my current project on my mini easle.

It's a mixed media project I am working on with the photo transfer stage already done.  

It is currently on the drying stage after a layer of Liquitex gel medium. 

Once it dries I'll be painting in some more details in acrylic. 

So you see my acrylic paints all laid out and ready once it dries.

I'll post the finished project here over the weekend.

I want to do more projects using this style as well.

How has your week been so far? 

Mine is pretty hectic with all my work deadlines! 

Can't wait for the weekend though and a much needed vacation trip! Yey!

Happy wednesday!

the weekend artist series #1-01 work in progress

I finally got started on something worth posting though only 1/3 done or even less. It's the 1st of the weekend series #1 with the theme inspirations in my life. I'll go into details when I am done with the painting about the subject of my first painting and also the process I went through including materials used.

This is my worktable...a bit crowded specially if Im using my laptop. Was still doing some paper painting for my nephews when I took this picture. Also on top of the table is my new book.

Its Art by Robert Cunning. I like it because it's an art history book but very compact and easy to carry anywhere specially when traveling. I can just read snippets from certain timelines and be easily inspired. 

 I think I picked it about 3 times on 3 different trips before buying it. I bought it from a local bookstore(National Bookstore in Robinsons Galleria). It only costs around US $18.00.

I leave you with a painting by Alphonse Mucha, Czech painter/designer who settled in Paris. I love his style and might just do a whole post about his works in the future.
