So...the thought theme is 'opposites' for this month. And I thought about it...I really did. But...I just...I really wanted to pictures of Bettie Page this month. I don't know why, just an urge I had...so I am going to go with that. This month is Bettie Page month for me...maybe even some run of the mill pin-up ladies, you never know...
Update, 6-19-12...I spent the first part of the month working with watercolor and my Micron pen. For the past few works, pieces I completed in CA, I have worked more with graphite, focusing on detail pencil on the face and then looser watercolor splats and blobs in the hair and background. I like the contrast of the controlled alongside the chaotic. Not sure what the last pieces for this series will bring, but I had an idea for my monthly self-portrait so I will start working on that soon... Update, 6-30-12...well, as the month progressed I think I got a little more into the drips and splats...there is just something about that in contrast with the detail pencil drawing/watercolor that appeals to me. I never know at the beginning of the month where the series will lead...
