Back when the iPad could only produce sepia tones.

This looks fantastic... can’t wait to see it.

Storage for paintings

So my next little project will be to assemble a cabinet for storing paintings. Right now my basement looks like an art gallery exploded. I’ve got the lumber (thanks to my wife!). And I’ve got this detailed plan (see above).

Okay, so it’s just a doodle. It’s a start.

There will be more shelves/compartments added once I get the main frame assembled. Can’t think that far ahead right now.

Once it’s finished and blocked with paintings, I can drag it up to the top of my street, climb on top and ride it back down to my house (note the wheels (see above)). My neighbours would all be very impressed. I imagine there will be lots of smiles, handshakes and backslaps.

I should probably put some flames on the sides.

Okay, that last part I probably won’t do.

Flames would be cheesy. Stripes maybe?

Hombre

Not quite sure where this guy came from. The recent snowfall must be making me think of warmer places. A far away land where the colour palettes are limited and the hat brims are exceedingly thick.

Cat nap

Trying to capture the shape of our Xander as he snoozes on the end of the couch. I think the shape is good but I haven’t quite captured his... girth. Here he looks like a half-starved super model. The reality is, well, let’s just say the kitty door to the basement will soon need some expansion.

Blue faces

I’m saddled with a virus this week so I’m not sure I’ll be doing much more than iPad doodles while crashed out in front of the TV.

Gros Morne

First completed painting of 2012. Many more to come I hope.
