Quick little video of me decorating for Christmas. Hope you all had a great one! More videos to come in the new year so make sure to follow and subscribe. Instagram (@sandigrady1) and my youtube channel are where you will likely see videos first so make sure to subscribe in those places to get update first. See you in the new year!
I did a video on a sketchbook I did for a friend as a gift for Christmas – check it out to get some good ideas for a sketchbook, to see a little bit of what is in this sketchbook and to see my totally messy studio (it’s that time of year that the studio stays looking like it exploded). Hope you enjoy it and expect to see more videos coming – I plan to do more videos in the upcoming year and hope it will be a more common feature on my blog, youtube channel, and instagram (@sandigrady1). Come find me on those other avenues and subscribe to get updates of new things.
I feel like I haven’t had much time in the studio in months and I’m locking myself in the studio this week! I wanted to give myself some exercises instead of just jumping into a painting – I need some warming up. So I’m doing value studies and decided to take some of my old paintings and rework them. I played around with some old paintings on my editing program and put filters on some of them – changing not only the colors but changing the values also and I’m painting from those filtered pictures of old paintings (does that make sense???!!). Here’s the first one I did below: 1st pic is my new painting, 2nd pic is the filtered picture I painted from, and the last pic is of my old original painting. I’m going to do this with some more paintings too and if they turn out I will share them with you.
