WIP Photos of latest painting - Fotos del proceso de mi última pintura

ENGLISH: Back in December, a friend of mine asked me for a painting of a horse running in the beach. She liked the painting I was making back then, but she wanted something bigger and with sunset colors. 

I began searching for references and inspiration and started working on it. I lost some pics of the process, from the start to mid-point, but I'm sharing here some of the detailing shots.


ESPAÑOL: En diciembre, una amiga mía me preguntó si podía hacerle una pintura de un caballo corriendo en la playa. A ella le había gustado una pintura que estaba haciendo en esos días, pero quería algo más grande y con colores del atardecer.

Inicié buscando referencias e inspiraciones para comenzar a trabajar en la imagen. No encuentro más fotos del proceso, especialmente desde el inicio hasta la mitad =(, pero les comparto unas fotos del proceso de detallado.



Colors blocked/ Colores bloqueados:

 

Adding some shine to the coat:


By this point, I asked my friend Tamisery for her opinion on this painting so far, and she pointed out some technical issues that I tried to fix in the best way I could  (like the horizon line that has to go a bit up than where I did it =|)  and that I had to make a choice with the perspective of the horse)

With her advice, I moved forward and then it became again something a bit more logical for me. 
En este punto, le pedí su opinión a mi amiga Tamisery , ella me comentó que veía algunos problemillas técnicos que traté de corregir de la mejor manera posible (por ejemplo: la linea del horizonte, que debía ir un poco más arriba de donde inicialmente estaba =|  y que debía tomar una decisión sobre la perspectiva del caballo)

Con su consejo, pude avanzar con mejor paso porque, al fin, la imagen tomó un poco más de sentido para mí.



 More detail on coat (water line already placed above of original line)/
Más detalle en el pelaje ( la línea del agua ya corregida)


A bit shadowy  =(  I use to paint at nights when I'm at my parent's house to avoid noise or the eventual favor that steals most of the day.

Esta foto salió un poco oscura =(  Normalmente pinto en las noches mientras estoy en casa de mis papás, para evitar ruido y el eventual favor que hay que hacer que consume todo el día =|


My first attempt with water splashes, first time working on something like this, I was absolutely terrified

Mi primer intento con las salpicaduras en el agua, es la primera vez que hago algo así, estaba aterrada


And, after thinking about it, I did some more work to it, because it wasn't quite convincing for me yet.  I searched for more reference images and then, to hold my breath and make the changes

Y, luego de pensarlo un rato, seguí trabajando en esa zona, porque aún no me convencía. Busqué más imágenes de referencia y así, casi casi conteniendo la respiración, me puse a hacer las correcciones


 



 And well, this is the finished image before taking it out for a more formal photo.  I was quite happy with the water, it added the movement I wanted to portray =)

Esta es la imagen terminada, antes de llevarla para afuera para una foto más formal. Estoy bastante satisfecha con el agua, le añadió un poco más del movimiento que quería agregarle =)




This is the finished image, photo taken with my lovely camera. It was a bit of a cloudy day, but it showed lovely.

Esta es la imagen final, fotografía tomada con mi adorada cámara.  Estaba un poco nublado, pero me gustó mucho como salió.



The image is 90cm x 70 cm, Oil on Canvas.  Not for sale.

La imagen es de 90cm x 70cm, Oleo sobre tela. No está a la venta

2 small paintings in progress









I'm working on 2 small paintings, aiming to use all my available material while I'm still at my parents house, I think I'll be moving to the USA next year, so I want to make sure I don't leave here anything unused that will just cause a big mess (in case that mom wants to use the room for rent or just if she wants to enter and clean it )

I'm overcoming lots of fears with this works, they look so simple, but the progress has been hard and I try not to go down everytime I know I need a break from them. But I like them, because of what they're teaching to me, like patience, planning and that "wtf? I'm changing this because I want it to be different!" feeling.  And i feel free.

The one at the right started with a different, more childlish kind of face, I elongated it and worked with a more soft-kinda realistic touch. I'm getting inspired by Soey Milk 's paintings,  she's my biggest inspiration as for today, I know I hugely feel inspired by women like Audrey Kawasaki, Karla Ortiz, Jel Ena, Stella Im Hultberg, Alice Savage and a huge list of incredible artists I follow. Including my best friends Tamisery , Piquipauparro , Bee-chan  who inspire me, not only with their art, but with their lives as well.
I would love to be half as incredible as they all are, and all the amazing artists I follow on all the social networks I'm in.

I'm working and redesigning my life to finally be where I'd love to be. It's been a long process, and I was even awarded with the most incredible husband and lots of friends, I can say that all I went through was worth it.  So, on to keep working =)

Thanks for reading (if you're not just a spam reference site =|)

Good Thoughts Wip (drawing)

WIP of a drawing I'm making and trying to finish =)





Bad thing for me right now is that I have some problems with my eyes, not sure what's in the environment today but certainly is something that's messing with my poor eyes... and hubby's too.. =|

I hope to finish it in a couple hours... and well, scan it tomorrow morning when hubby is not glued to the PC playing Sim City   =D 


Have a great evening <3
