PEACE MARIA!

This is a piece im working on for my sister.

HOT AIR BALLOON!

I wanted to add meaningful features to this painting, things my wife would love to look at cause after all this is for her. I have put a lot of hours,thought, dedication and most of all love to this painting. Today I added the baby in a hot air balloon, this way she could be next to the panda. She has this stuffed panda that she loves and she calls him "maaww" haha. The cartoon in this painting that represents ava doesn't exactly look like her but im shooting for a cartoon vibe.
I am also working on making an video for this painting. Its going to be a mixture of slide show and video clips of the whole progress of this painting.

JUST FINISHED "BOB BORN AGAIN MARLEY"


This is the step by step process of the "Bob Born Again Marley" piece. I have worked on this all morning and finally got it done and is now hanging in our living room.

ALL I NEED!


STARTED BY PAINTING THE BACKGROUND BLACK


AFTER IT DRIED I NAILED THE SCRAP WINDOW FRAME PIECES THAT I FOUND.


THIS IS HOW DESTROYED THIS PAINTING GOT FROM SITTING IN A CLOSET.


THE FRAME IS DONE AND READY FOR CONSTRUCTION.


I LAYED OUT THE UKELELE AND IT FITS LIKE A GLOVE!


I PAINTED THE INNER WALLS OF THE FRAME BLACK AND PAINTED OVER THE YELLOW CLOTH RESIDUE LEFT FROM THE BAG.


THE FRAME HAS THREE CONTOURS, SO ITS PERFECT FOR SOME RASTA COLOURS. AND CAN'T FORGET THE MUSIC NOTES!


THE LAST FEW DETAIL FEATURES!!


SINCE UKELELES HAVE FOUR STRINGS, I USED THE FOUR TUNNERS IN EACH CORNER OF THE FRAME FOR A UNIQUE LOOK.!!

REBIRTH OF BOB MARLEY..

A few months ago, i painted this ukelele with bob marley's cover from his "legend" album. This awesome piece of art was hung in my apartment until i decided to let my daughter play with it, bad move i know.. haha long story short as I went to hang it back up i dropped it and it landed on the neck of the instrument and broke. It bummed me out so I put it away since i could no longer hang it broken. I put it back in its little bag that the instrument came with, and threw it in a closet. I had forgotten about it for a while but a new idea popped into my head. I am going to try to bring it back to life. Its deffenetly not going to be easy but well see what comes out of it.


CHECK THE PROGRESS

Its taking quite a while to finish, but i can almost see the end of this tunnel.
