The real life dork behind the art
(3/3) Waiting for lighting to dry on #catwoman so I can start carving in texture while also waiting on the resin to set on #Batman so I can start his next layer up. Starting to think I need to invest in a third art table so I can have 3 pieces going at once rather than just 2

There's been a constant vibration running beneath my apartment that's visibly separating the surface of my paint - it's been really interesting experimenting to amplify or reduce the chemical separation being catalysed by vibration.

Been off my Parkinsons meds for the last couple weeks* so the steady state shake in my hands is becoming really noticeable - but the effect is kinda cool? Like some otherworldly script or something...weird!

Progress on this lady - I messed up all the business of her shirt and skirt; but I fixed the lighting on her face so ignore the ineligible hand written masking tip note!

Progress on #catwoman. Working without reference is a fcking trip man - it's like painting someones portrait but they only kinda exist in this weird liminal space and if you lose sight of them they're lost.

Last night's progress - had to fight some serious Big Pu$$y energy last night when my body tried to distract the sh!t out of me, but I chewed the fck out of a pencil and managed to only moderately mess up the work!

Backgrounds done on these two with an extra resin layer with misty stuff for him. Next: foreground painting then another layer of resin above that (maybe more depending on how much extra light and shadow I want to add in).

Another quick sketch while I wait for the resin to dry so I can move on with Batman

Roughing in the background before tackling mah boi here. I'm trying to finish by morning so I can get a layer of resin drying and start another piece tomorrow 🤟

Did the last resin pour on these 4 pieces yesterday - learned a lot! Stuck to the same subjects and materials so the variables were choices made. I like the last one the best; feels like I figured out what I'm doing and what I want to do. Been a trip!

Starting a new piece / set of pieces; first collaboration!

Set of 4 pieces I'm working on right now. Top left and bottom right are closest to finished - other two are very much in the swampy middle of progress (but it's kind of cool to see where the more finished pieces started out - messy and weird looking!)

(2/2) Weekend's progress; started working two pieces at a time so I'm not laying around like a lump waiting for a resin pour or Fix-It matte binder to dry. Another night or two of work then I can do another pour on these.

I've gotten better with the detail in the last painting but I like the composition is better in the first one! Also blacklights are cool...

This is my favourite part - when the chaos blends together and seemingly random choices fit in to the whole picture. It's a leap of faith because I'm never certain how it's going to come together. All I can control is my references and how my choices stack moment by moment.

Starting a new piece while listening to the dulcet tones of tires screeching and audio distortion; and getting not a little bit turned on by what I'm assuming is meant to be audio terrorism. Who needs a magic wand when you've got deep bone vibrating bass, am I right?

Starting another resin experiment - giving some life to torn pages from an old book for the bottom layer. Hoping resin between this and the painting I'll be doing on top might give it a subtle parallax effect! We'll see 🤞🤞🤞
