LAYERING TEXT

White Gouache text over older images; also thinking about the dripping effect of water based media, both in text and backgrounds.

RESEARCH: CY TROMBLEY

Writing as texture, artist Cy Trombley: also the use of line, sgcraffito, and white.

THAUMATROPES

Thinking about animation--low-fi.

NATURAL OBJECTS

Was missing the organic quality of natural objects, so I played around with layering and drawing this aloe. Also trying to keep sgraffito and/or the uneven edge. I like the introduction of vibrant red/orange. 

CELESTIAL CASSETTES

Wanting to revisit the tapes, outside of the animation idea. Moved to primary color scheme: celestial feel...Idea of nostalgia.

SWITCHED

Another object from the novel: I like the switch up of acrylic and gouache on watercolor field.

FIGURES WITH WORDS

Still Gouache on Acrylic with touches of ink. I like the white outline and the uneven edges. Wondering what the words should be, I looked at the work of Jean-michel Basquiat---words as texture and mood.
