Artrage and stuff!

So it's been awhile since I've posted here!

Sorry about that... but I've been mainly using my Tumblr (StopSassi), as of lately.

I've been even thinking I might just use that as my main website... not sure...

Anyways... I've been pretty busy these past few months between working, and life stuff... but I have been still making progress on #TheWhiskeyChildFilm and other art stuff.

I've been really lovin' Art Rage lately.

Here is a one hour study I did!

This was a piece I contributed to the Muppet Collab (which was started by Zwoltopia)...

The Cosmic Fish (Duo)!

I also wanted to include this ink drawing I did for a tattoo commission for my co-worker's fiancé!

Nothing too special...

I think I might be moving out to California in the next few months... More on that later...

Live Wedding Painting + Some Older One Hour Paintings

I was recently commissioned to do a live painting of a couples wedding ceremony.

I had no real evidence that I could complete the task, besides showing my post of my One Hour Paintings. Luckily, it was the exact style they were looking for... and they were willing to trust me if I felt confident enough.

The final product.

 The day was June 15th, and location, Greystone Fields in Gibsonia, PA.

 Here is a picture of my set-up.

I did most of the work there, but I took it home to add a few more hours worth of painting.

The happy newily wed couple!


OKAY!

 The second half of this post is just going to be older one hour paintings I haven't posted here yet.

This one is actually a one hour painting I did digitally in Photoshop!
I gave it restrictions by only using one brush, no UNDOs, and I painted it all on one layer.

And the one below ISN'T a one hour painting... just a watercolor landscape I did one evening.

One Hour Paintings

Last Thursday, I wanted to try something different...
So, I went back to my roots and painted some impressionism!

This was about an hour and a halves worth of work.

Then it hit me... maybe I could try to give myself a challenge and do timed paintings for a week!

I really enjoyed doing this, so I may continue to keep painting... we'll see!

I actually did TWO paintings this day of the same spot. The first was really early, about 6 AM.

Around 2 PM, I decided to do another one… it was lightly drizzling… so i figured, “why not.” But, I only got 15 minutes in before the downpour hit me though.

I noticed it dried and thought it was cool how the rain altered the painting.

All of these were one hour sessions only, aside from the rained on painting (which was 15 minutes) and this very last one.

The last was only 43 minutes because I got off work late… and it got really dark outside!

I could not see anymore!
