I am hoping I am back on track now after teetering the past few months, not being mentally able to work on art. Before spring is my worst; I have to wean off my winter meds, cabin fever is running rampant, and you can't do anything yet cause it is still too damn cold.
Now though I have been working on art a little here and there till I start to get the feel for it. Right now my big deal is that I am disappointed in myself for letting so many decent drawings go unfinished. So my goal at the moment is to finish them and I am surprised which one I went back to first.
Even though it is so small, it is taking me so long because there is so much detail in the piece. I have never done something like it before.
If I loved HTTYD art before, my respect for it has escalated tremendously since working on this piece. Getting closer to the dragon has really shown the attention and love that went into making these dragons and my heart almost aches with envy. The creators are so lucky to be part of something so fantastic.
It was suggested to me to spray my "Eye of Toothless" piece with gloss fixative simply because they thought it would look better glossy.
Glossed
Before Gloss
I was shocked to see the difference it made, I really had no idea the fixative could improve the way it looked.
Of course I am also working on a cross stitch piece which happens to be the largest one I have ever taken on.
15in x 18in and it's going to have somewhere around 36,800 stitches. I have a rough guesstimate that it will take me till the end of the year to finish it :D
