“12 + 12, 12 x 12’s-‘Tidying Up’, The Worksheet”

Project: 12 + 12, 12 x 12’s  #16

Title-’Tidying Up’

Second sequenced post, ‘The Worksheet’.

As I mentioned in the last Post (the doodle), this painting, #16, and the next painting, #17, have connections besides both being worked on at the same time. Towards the center, left side is an open space that connects to the ‘creature’. In this space I toyed with the inclusion of a landscape scene. On the next design, for #17, I found that there was an area that might warrant a similar embellishment.

Next Monday, the ‘Finished Painting’.

Title-’Tidying Up’

First sequenced post, ‘The Doodle’.

The next two paintings in this project have a shared history. Both ‘Doodles’ (for paintings #16 and #17) I chose and then finalized both worksheets all within a two day span. Their connections also expand into some of the elements of their final design.

More on their other connections with next Mondays ‘Worksheet’ Post.

Title-’Cross Talk’

Third sequenced post, the ‘Finished Painting’.

One of the positive aspects of engaging in a project such as this, is experimenting with choices of colors. In particular, the colors used in the ’box’ areas. These soft pastel colors are an extension from a painting in the 8 x 10 ’Eleven Series’ I completed a few months ago. Pending on the subject matter, I expect this ’box’ and/or color choice will periodically find it’s way into other future paintings.

Next Monday, the start of the next Painting in the ‘12 + 12 Project’.

Second sequenced post, ‘The Worksheet’.

If you were to see this worksheet close up, you would see numerous eraser marks from a first attempt at this ’to be finished painting design’. Whereas the subjects from the ’Doodle’ were fine, the numerous embellishments added didn’t seem to work. So I erased 90% of the pencil work around the main subjects and started over. I’m much happier with this final worksheet version.

Next Monday, the ’Finished Painting’.
