I had the artsy-est, funkiest roommates ever in college. Each one of us was always bringing out a new creative side in another. Many 'a nights (maybe TOO many 'a nights!) were spent in the living room, drinking wine, and painting/drawing/crafting together. We started off with an "art wall" that was just one single wall, completely covered in art. It eventually turned into all 4 walls of the living room.
Danielle was handy with her charcoal.
So I gave it a try a couple times, and eventually got this.
He made his place on one of the 4 art walls and built his fame around those crazy, guitar playing fingers. It was pretty brutal (and I was pretty selfish) when it came time to move and I refused to leave him there.
Sad, untilllll! I decided to paint him.
My brilliant brother requested that I take pictures as I work throughout a painting. So, I did. Here is how ugly it is when it starts.
Then, crazy fingers appear (Danielle's favorite)...
And voilà!
Choosing colors for him was fun, since he was originally colorless, and the background idea came from a similar color scheme in one of Salvador Dali's paintings.
Love how rustic looking he came out!
Be back soon!
