What is Wensdi? - Friday, work in progress continued!

Today started off in a not so pleasant way. Having only been up five minutes, not even had my first coffee of the day, I read an email that got me so angry and annoyed. I had a little bit of a huge tantrum.

I sat sulking for about ten minutes, drank my coffee and looked over at this piece of artwork and my tantrum subsided. I'm so excited to see this piece done that I'm not going to let any silly people distract me.

And so, I've been working on this for the last few hours, I stopped because me legs went numb from sitting in the same position without moving for so long. I used the opportunity to update the work in progress. 

 Look at how pretty she is starting to look!

What is Wensdi? - Friday, and another piece is finished! :O

Can you believe it? Another piece finished, it's like when you're inspired you get stuff done... 

So what do ya'll think? Come on share your thoughts :D 

Enjoy.

What is Wensdi? - The answer to that would seem to be, clearly a masochist...

I am currently working on some large scale pieces, to really push myself with the pattern detail and I think it's going to kill me! I wish I had a decent enough camera to take better pictures because I have already completed an A2 piece which I would love to share.

I have however got a few pictures of the piece I'm currently working on it's A1 and will be pretty epic if I don't die attempting to complete it.

Here's a full pic of it, see that grey mass there? 

Scroll down you will see that it's a collection of little loops.... Can you see the faint outline of a circle? That's going to be filled in with this texture.

I'm relatively sure it will look epically awesome when complete. However, I have come to the conclusion that I must be a masochist because why would anyone go through this much pain for anything. 

If anyone wants to send cakes or falafel burritos to help keep me motivated that would be marvelous!

:D

What is Wensdi? - Another Monday, no cats - PROMISE!

So, I'm working on redesigning my website and blog to make them a bit more fun and "Wensdi" and a bit less severely boring and clinical looking. Therefore, I have spent today working out a look and feel I want it to have, and have come up with a banner design. I did the initial design by hand.

This is the artwork in its basic unedited scan. I'm very good at drawing aren't I?

This is the artwork after some quick editing and playing around with the idea of adding colour to cheeks, I am undecided as to whether I like it or not.

This is the artwork after I using the Live trace tool on Illustrator, usually live trace destroys all the detail I have put into the illustrations but this time I think it looks quite nice! 

I have just decided I quite like the pink cheeks and will continue to play around and see what I come up with. I really would love to know what anyone thinks about this design so let me know your thoughts.
