I used a pallet knife as a squeegee. I used black gesso as a base layer. I made the discovery that I need to add brighter colors. ]]> 2017-10-11 18:33:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/196172957 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/196939738 2017-10-13 18:36:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/196939738 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197733140 Today I am starting to take a risk, I added white (spider web type lines) which did not work out well. In an attempt to correct it, I smudged the white paint which made the project look non-appealing. I am going to try to use the masking tape to draw the attention away from the white paint.]]> 2017-10-17 12:18:21 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197733140 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197736984 A challenge that I'm having is that the original colors in the back are unable to be seen. I feel that the project is visually unappealing. I am going to try to solve this issue by adding something else that pops to the project. ]]> 2017-10-17 12:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197736984 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197739060 Today I took more risks, I tried to add bold red lines to take the attention away from the tan blocks, now the red is too bold and is pulling away from the rest of the piece. After that, I tried to add purple to the bottom which did not work out as planned. I am struggling with what I should do next. I do not like the way my piece looks like and I am not sure how I should fix it.]]> 2017-10-17 12:32:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197739060 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197739353 2017-10-17 12:32:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/197739353 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/198413056 2017-10-18 18:40:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/198413056 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/198431237 Today I restarted my project. I painted over it with white gesso, let it dry, and then started squeegeeing colors onto the masonite. I think that everything in my piece fits right, but I need to make some more horizontal lines in the project. I am using a rainbow color scheme. I am going to add more colors to this project to create a more unified piece. ]]> 2017-10-18 19:20:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/198431237 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200746783 On day 8, I made more masonite board paintings. After putting them together with the older paintings, they did not match and made the painting more chaotic. I decided not to use the extra pieces. ]]> 2017-10-26 11:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200746783 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200747617 Today I focused on re-organizing my pieces, I decided to layer them on top of each other, starting with the largest on the bottom. I am going to have the paintings tilted diagonally ]]> 2017-10-26 11:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200747617 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200766247 Today I glued my project together by using wood glue.]]> 2017-10-26 12:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200766247 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200767156 2017-10-26 12:22:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200767156 ericanoelshonk https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200767916 2017-10-26 12:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ericanoelshonk/8ljmvcb1vc2i/wish/200767916
