Women > Man

Hello, welcome back to my blog. It is now week 4 and this week we have an unfinished piece created by yours truly, aka me. This week I've created a piece called "Women > Man", this piece is all about women empowerment and being more predominant. I just started this piece on thursday because this week has been very conflicted with a bunch of things.  So, it should be finished around next week. This piece is supposed to be a painting, as usual lol, but so far its just an outline of my female and a smaller male. I first found a wooden canvas, used the saw to cut the perfect piece, then I sanded the edges to make the sides more smoother unlike my other paintings. After finding the perfect piece, I then began to sketch out a rough outline of what I wanted to portray. Even though I only worked on this project for a day, I would say sanding the edges and corners went really well. I never used that machine before but I learned Thursday and I think I'll use it from now

Venus & Feline (Finished)

Hey, it's you again. Welcome back to Briana Carter's weekly blog. This week's newest addition is a piece called 'Venus & Feline'. This week I've made another painting out of acyrillic paints. The painting was quite simple, I first had to find and then sand new wooden canvas, then I outlined the piece with pencil then I painted the outline and added details.  Something that went really well for me in this piece was mixing the primary and secondary colors to get the new vibrant colors I have in the piece. I really like how the outline came out, it sort of came out how I imagined in my head but with less details. I also admire my weird creativity in this piece, I've gotten asked, "Why an alien and a cat?" Well because I was thinking of my cat, Tyson, and I pictured my weird self holding him. A part in this piece that I struggled with was putting my mind onto the canvas, to visualize what I was thinking. Trying to show others what you are thin
