Vlog

Hi everyone, and welcome back to my blog.  If you are a first time viewer, you might want to view other blog posts, as this is a special feature this post.  Although I have made the process of painting very visible, I thought it might be useful to not only add a smoother documentation, but also add some input with emotion, and not just internet text.  For those who might be lost, as of 3/21, this is where the painting I will film is at:



I'm not done today, but what I do know is that I will continue to use this blog to post updates on my creations, edits, and reflections.  Overall, the blog post I have established is different not because it shows the process of a painting being created, as many of my .gifs show, but is more of a gateway into the insight of me, what my motives are for making the painting.  Today, I just am filling out shapes with the general color, not adding any particular details yet.  I have put paint dryer over the new progress I have made, so the crooked rectangles are an easy fix.  

Essentially, today is still working out the basics in the midground, and not necessarily anything in the foreground yet.  The background for the most part seems to be finished, with the building's sides being the remaining area of work.  Other than that, the painting seems like it is due for completion by around one or two weeks from now.  

As I said earlier, the blog will be kept in maintenance until May, and if you are interested in seeing more paintings, I have added a e-mail subscription service.  I won't send spam emails every day, but more likely send a blog post around every or every other week, detailing concepts and criticism.  Anyway, goodbye!

  1. Hi Austin!
    Nice to know that you will be continuing your blog for a while, but your video seems to be broken. It won't load up for me. Anyway, I would like to see the whole process of making a painting. I know that you sketch, graph, and draw, but when you started talking about "paint dryer" I am a bit lost. I like the email service!
