Sea Slugs

I like how I just completely repeated myself in that last blog entry... I don't really know what to write about anymore. Haha. Concentration is going slowly, I've hit a block so I've been going back and trying new things that will probably work their way into my breadth from last semester. I've got a couple things going at home including putting the background on my candy skull piece and working on a new picture. It's very much like the octopus image inverted and using sea slugs instead of tentacles. I kind of intended it to be an elaboration on that piece, it will have far more detail and color so hopefully that works out. Haha, I like sea creatures a lot, could you tell? I think I plan to use more of them because they are a very good representation of my contrast against sophistication. They're very surreal and colorful. I'm having more and more difficulties though creating interesting compositions though. I don't want my concentration to be like... find a random critter and plop a top hat down on it's head. For my next piece I think I want to skewer the hat on something...

Oh jeez, that was like a little mini rant there. XD

I saw several pieces by Christain Hahn today while visiting the Denver Art Museum and they reminded me very much of my intended style at the beginning of my concentration. The picture above is Land Unter which I got to see and absolutely loved.
