Acrylic paints on Illustration board
15x20
Assignment for Illustration class

I will follow her on her path
Scarlet's walk through the violets
-Scarlet's Walk: Tori Amos

So
This painting.
I hadn't done acrylic in a long ass time. So it took me 3 or 4 hours to get the hang of it again.
Cried a few times in those hours. As well as threw the painting across the room :roll: (:giggle: the corners are bent)
Yes it was that frustrating.
Finally I found the right brush... and it's also the smallest one :faint:

It's funny cause in real life you could see where i got all pissed of and put like 5o layers of paint on it. :lmao:

I drew it on saturday.. painted from sunday mornin to 3 o'clock this morning. (it's due today)
I'm so very tired. And I still have math homework and philosophy to do *dies*

I need sleep.

I never thought I'd be able to do a Tori painting for a homework assignmet!

it's really beautiful... all of your hard work and frustration paid off. The eyes are amazing. With the exception of her hair, it doesn't look like an acrylic painting. Very well done. Hope you get a good grade - you deserve it :)
