Scrapple with an Apple

Brian — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 13:15:41 +0000

Improvised with leftover paint on the palette, leftover bits of painted paper. As I went along I tried to work with something other than my usual colors and techniques (e.g. floundering around, then trying to pull everything together with ink). Gouache and collage in the sketchbook.

AlphaBeasts – A is for Astomi

Brian — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 13:15:51 +0000

For Ben Towle’s new “AlphaBeasts” project. This is an Astomi, a creature that survives on smells alone (and has to avoid potentially fatal stinkiness.) Ink, gouache, pencil in sketchbook.

Raise hands if upon reading the title, you hear Lee Majors’ dulcet tones.

Another sketch built around some collaged-in bits of my son’s painting. Collage and gouache in sketchbook.

Summer Lake #2

Brian — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 13:15:22 +0000

A variation on yesterday’s painting. I like how the pencil texture came out. (Gouache and pencil in sketchbook, some digital punch-up.)

Summer Lake

Brian — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 13:15:53 +0000

A memory of summer. Here I’m trying to go all Winslow Homer and get the right values and patterns. Gouache in sketchbook, from photo.
