I'm beginning the long-awaited plan to transfer some of the rougher work off my main site and integrate them here. Shift some of the burden onto her sister site so she can handle the weightier, "portfolio" quality work.
This was the final for our gouache techniques class at school. It was my third class with Mike Humphries and the assignment was to design a small house made of natural materials and use it in a composition.
Rule #1: no trees.
helen consulting with mike on her first round of sketches: "And here's one with a tree stump..."(1)
mike: "No trees!"
helen (puppy-eyed): "Not even a stump?"
mike: "Mmm, no. I want to give you a challenge."
medium: pencil (sketches), gouache on watercolor board (color keys and final art)
