Just got the Flyer in for the show at the Convention. You may continue. ;)
Over the last week I've been working on completing painting number 4 out of the 6 paintings I have to have completed by November 1st. Sadly, the painting affiliated with the above poster for Macross World Convention 2013's art show "Deculture: A Tribute to Macross" is another "contractually obligated to not show before a certain date" painting. Which I BARELY caught in the fine print at the last minute cause I was so tired.
Just before my birthday I was contacted by the organizers of the Macross World Convention. They are having their first ever gallery/art exhibit entitled "Deculture: A Tribute to Macross" and they asked me if I'd participate. I was hesitant at first because I don't know very much about Macross and it felt strange doing tribute/fan art for something I've never really seen. I was honest with them and told the truth, but when they wrote back and said that they just loved my style and would be curious to see what I came up with in. Then they were nice enough to give me a crash course in the world of Macross. How could I say no when they were so nice about things?
You'll have to wait until October 6th to see the new painting, but, I can tell you I titled it "Tech or Treat" and it'll probably give someone a cavity. Gouache, as usual, for the medium and pretty small. As I get more information I'll try to do a follow up post with more specific info.
NOW I finally get a much needed week off (just in-time to watch season premiers on CBS) between painting number 4 and painting number 5. . . and then I'll get a whole 2 and a half weeks to complete painting number 5! Believe me, I could use it. What's the next show? Why thank you for asking. Up next in mid-october is "Story Time" a group show organized by Oscar Rosales of Bleenkies fame at Monkeyhouse Toys in Silverlake, CA. Just check out the flyer for more info.
