The Clouds Fall Apart

Just kind of moving along and enjoying drawing cloud/continent lines.  Still thinking about the color and empty bands.

Not that strong of a drawing, but come on, its seagulls and infinite garbage.

The Clouds Look Different Since You Died

I hope using the 2nd person in the title doesn’t seem too over dramatic.  I really like the idea of “the clouds look different” and needed to add a dramatic time element to make sure that I was not referring to the current clouds but the continuous clouds or something like that.

Through the course of this painting I have really enjoyed exploring how closely clouds and continents look.  That seems important.  Clouds are ever changing but (sometimes for me at least) it is easy to feel they always look the same or not even notice them because it seems like they are the same clouds from yesterday.  Sort of like the continents, which in our lifetimes will pretty much always look the same even though they are always changing.  Two seemingly permanent things that are not really permanent at all, one hard to think of as permanent the other hard to think of as not.

At this point I still really like the bands of color/bands of no color.  A sometimes think of them as rivers but they are much more.

I am not sure how a title this long will display, but I don’t have anything else to add.

Finally!  This one is almost done (well, really it could be done, I just have to look at it a little longer to be sure and to see if it needs anything else).  I will take some better pictures, and some details, give it a title, and talk about it.

I’ve had a few rabbit disasters, and while the pegasus open things up, I am not as confident.  Still plugging away at the larger painting.  I think I will be pretty excited when it is finished.

Of course the larger lung has more clouds attached!  What a provincial question.

Another weird view, but now with color.  Color!

Another side step while I continue work on my large piece.  Which is going well, but hard to tell if any progress is being made.  Also here is a little illustration I did this week.

How long can I resist drawing volcanos without drawing dinosaurs?
