                            Painting Progress - Week 2 09/17/2008

                            So here's my painting after the second class - I like the little slideshow feature that flickr has - it helps to see how the painting is progressing! 

                            Last night, I started to build up the wrapper for the sucker on the right, and people are looking at it and saying "It's a Tootsie Pop!" - which makes me smile - because it is! - I still have to make the actual candy red (or cherry) to match the red wrapper - I also have to clean up the wrapper a bit...

                            and the darn stick is all wonky - it needs to be cleaned up... and of course, I must still finish glazing and painting the butterscotch candy on the upper left... and do the wrapper for the candy on the bottom right which is supposed to be some sort of taffy in that opaque wax paper.  Lastly, I'll need to glaze and finish the wrapped tootsie pop on the bottom left corner - it shows the circle of white so far but I need to add words of some sort.  I was thinking instead of painting the actual logo of the candy that I might do something else - like a year, or some other logo... any suggestions?

                            We have one more in class session for this painting, then I think the following class is when we do our critiques - I feel pretty good about my progress... I think I'll have it done (as long as I don't mess it up doing the wrappers... and as long as I can figure out what I want the writing to say!)

                            It's amazing!! I can't believe how real everything is starting to look. Wow, I'm so impressed.

                            I'm so impressed. I can just barely draw recognizable stick figures!

                            Wow! That is really good. I can't draw a lick. In fact I would have eaten the still life and probably been kicked out of class. I can't wait to see the finished painting.
