bjbjLULU If you're expecting to see a painted still life, or some flowers or a deer frolicking
through a field...... you're watching the wrong video I might make a tutorial on one
of those in the future, but today i'm going to have some fun I am going to merge the likenesses
of the cookie monster, the trix rabbit, lindsay lohan, amy winehouse and that cracked out
bird (Sonny) from the Cocoa Puffs Commercials, into a painting. I don't exactly expect anyone
to throw this art work over their couch but that's ok because the creative process is
my addiction. Okay so now let me explain to how I made this piece of art. I am going to
put annotations in to this video because this piece (of art) needs a lot of explanation
on many levels I suppose ........... I am starting out with paint shop pro The reason
I like this approach is because it gives me the ability to get a digital sketch that allows
me to sculpt my vision. it allows you to move things around so instead of doing a sketch
I create a mixed media digital collage. In fact, this process let me see that I didn't
like the Placement of Sonny's beak. I took that out because that wasn't working So I
just got rid of it and did something else. I had to choose from Gollum, the Cookie Monster,
Lindsey Lohan, the Trix Rabbit and Amy Winehouse. Again, i'm not going for realism with this
piece of art. It's almost Alien. The bunny ears make it a little bit scary and a little
bit funny but that's what i'm trying to do here's the uh... cookie monster i'm putting
him in this design The eyes of this figure will be the cookie monster who is Addicted
to cookies. i couldn't fit lindsay lohan and anywhere else so I.......um.....well ......you
know We used Lindsey Lohan's ***. I hope that She doesn't mind. I invested in the HP
Designjet 510 printer It is forty two inches and it prints on canvas. It cost quite a lot.
two thousand five hundred dollars my addiction is art supplies and And I decided to sell
a kidney (just kidding) And purchase it. It prints on canvas too, this is a totally new
process that you've never seen before Acrylic paint on a digital collage printed on canvas
I started out with the photos and then I printed onto the big canvas Now I am working with
the acrylic paint and paint markers and colored pencils. so it's a shift it's something that
i haven't really done before im using acrylic paint because it dries really fast and i want
to work fast Fast is good I was planning on doing a layer of oil paint, but i liked what
happened with the acrylic so much decided against putting it on. I was excited about
the possibilities the HP Designjet 510 brought to the table. it gives me no the chance to
create more layers more depth in my art work This is a contemporary art approach to painting.
layering the acrylic paint is harder than layering with oil paint. Oil paint is more
workable. Oil paint is oil based while acrylic paint is a plastic. Acrylics creates a good
surface on canvas though. I want this work to be stylized. I am not looking for realism
I am looking for something that's a little bit more cartoonish than realism that's where
my taste is right now talking about taste...... this probably was distasteful for me to create
artwork on addiction But it was honest. Spontaneous. Impulsive you just have to go for it anyway
check at the bottom right corner that's my box of decocolor paint markers and those are
really great the when you're working with the acrylics and they help you make details
Its like a paintbrush that never runs out of paint It creates a solid line it helped
with drawing and painting the feet, Toenails and hands and fingernails Decocolor are my
favorite ones but there are other brands. I am going to add gold paint To the background
as a symbolic gesture. Gold makes me think of the Byzantine Icon Paintings in Art History.
Gold has been used in art for centuries as a symbol. I will just have to paint the edges
again. A tip for painting The edges is to use tape. Although I didn't in this case.
Paint gives an artist the chance to cover over the areas that he/she don't like acrylic
paint is opaque so it can do that acrylic actually is more opaque than oil. And it dries
a lot faster. there we go and now i just have to go over The edges again and put on the
finishing touches Its a little scary don't you think? Well I hope it doesn't go scare
you away or make you think bad of me Most of you have seen my normal step-by-step during
videos you know what i am talking about? I am really like another cereal.....not cocoa
puffs i'm more like frosted mini wheats I have a conservative side And I have a crazy
side too those were the paint markers that are used for the hair really see because its
drying right now but i was able to texture the hair okay so thank you Please tell me
