Here I show part 1 of 3 of a painting I did of a friend's name, Marcelo. In Spanish, 'mar' means ocean and 'cielo' means sky or heaven. This is a word painting where all of the letters of Marcelo are overlapped-creating the structural design for the painting. Here I show how it's laid out and how I will be coloring it to resemble sky and ocean.
 
 
Here I add the finishing touches and highlights to my friend's "contract"/"statement" painting about who she is as a woman.
 
 
Here is the reveal of my "Love" painting with the black outlines. This was recorded at 3a so I'm a bit tired on this one.
 
 
Here's a painting I've started for a friend of mine. She's having me paint her initials in the background in rich reds, and then on top of that will be a statement about 'who she is' as a woman. What I've done here is design her initials in block letters and overlap them to create a structural framework for the background design, then I'll paint her 'statement' in other vibrant color over it in the next progress video.
