SWEET STREET's #PrayForJapan Art Fundraiser - My Piece -
Sorry there have been no updates lately... it's been a rough week because of all the disaster in Japan. My grandmother, aunts and uncles, cousins, sister, and many great friends all live there now, so needless to say I was very stressed for their safety. However, every person I know there is safe. Thank heavens for that. It hurts my heart terribly to see my country suffering like this.
How to scan my large paintings?
Question of the day: How can I get high-dpi scans of my large artwork on wood?
I am spending ALL DAY trying to figure this out! There's not much info about this online, and I'm about to stab Google in the O for being so useless!
Charmaine Olivia does it just exactly the way I wish to do it. Here:
Newest piece "Tears & Rain -Namida Ame-
It's a mixed media collage on Masonite board, 18x34. The elements I used: watercolor+colored pencil painting of the girl's face, gold leaf, Japanese paper (for the flowers), and the background is acrylic paint. Next time I think it'll do a step-by-step of my method. I wanted to try it out first to make sure everything worked ok.
I'll make ask E to build a frame for this tomorrow.
Momentum OKC ~Friday and Saturday~
If you live in OKC area and have nothing to do Friday or Saturday, you should come say hi at Momentum OKC, happening on both nights 8-midnight at 311 S. Klein Ave in downtown OKC. There will be tons of art from local artists under 30, and I think some pretty large installation pieces too. There will be live music, and I'm hoping for food, of course. I have one piece, "Spring -Haru-" in the show. I wished I had 2 more, but alas and alas, that's the way it goes. Anyway, it should be an interesting event. This will be my first time to attend the show~
