http://www.blogigo.de/Art_Blog A place where I display my art and blog about the WIP of my newest projects. de AmberKid AmberKid Fri, 18 Apr 2008 11:13:17 +0200 daily 1 Well...it's really been a while since I wrote here. The project I started back then is still paused, I didn't get anything done in time *is frustrated* Re-listening MIRROR and especially ANGELDUST, I got a new inspiration for an artpiece...a single one and computer-colored this time. Which doesn't mean I'll never finish the other one...I just need the right inspiration for it...and I've sworn myself I won't be empty-handed when I meet the guys the next time. When that's gonne be...only the gods know. Anyway...time to get this going again. I'll post the progress, going step by step again, as in the other project. Expect the first update in a few. ^^ Fri, 18 Apr 2008 11:13:17 +0200 http://www.blogigo.de/Art_Blog/It-s-been-a-while/3/ http://www.blogigo.de/Art_Blog/It-s-been-a-while/3/ As time is running short and I don't think I'll be able to finish 13 pieces in less than two weeks, I decided to change my plans a little bit. Instead of 13 pictures I will stick to one (the one I started) and will add symbols for the songs to it. The center-symbol will remain the mirror, but there will come others for songs such as: - Damned - Trickster - Kogoeru Yoru ni Saita Hana - Angeldust - Kaleidoscope That will be much easier to finish and I hope I can continue painting soon. As in tomorrow. ^^ I miss painting, but I was so busy arranging things and running around that I had to skip it for what I think much too long now. I hate being behind the schedule. So, expect an update on the picture progress, soon!

Some of you might know about my plans to do an art-project as a gift to give to D'espairs Ray when I meet them in one month's time. A book full of art inspired by the guys' newest album: MIRROR Today I finally started painting. And since quite a few people were interested, I decided to put all of the work in progress into this blog, to share the experience of getting it done. Okay...the basic facts: One book, 13 artpieces (12 songs plus cover), 1 month time.   Remeber, this is the first of 13 pieces, so this is the very beginning.   These are the materials I work with: cardboard, oil paint and hard brushes of various sizes.   Step I: The base For the base-coat I used 3 shades of brown: Yellow Ocre, Burnt Sienna and Burnt Umbra. First I covered the whole sheet with hzeavy brushstrokes of Ocre, then I switched to a bigger brush and...
