UPFEST 2012

This was me right at the start of the day! I had no idea what to do as my piece, but as luck would have it I received a big pot of blue paint that morning so there was really only one true choice...

KITTEH!

Here is the first rough sketch which I scribbled with purple emulsion! Infact, nearly all of this piece was using emulsion - the differing shades of blue were made mixing acrylics!

Once I'd roughed in the block colours I messed around with shading the light bits and fixing/tweaking her proportions. This was so hard as everytime I stepped back it was almost into someone. I am very grateful for all the people who watched and took photos and even asked me questions though! You lovely people make it so much fun! I chatted to loads and tagged many sketch books :D

I then used a black chunky paint pen for her outlines, this is always when I start to get happier as it looks close to being finished! Up to this point I am one stressy binty!

Stick a blade in her, she's done >:D (she'll fuck you up though buddy!)

I was so busy during the day painting that I didn't get much of a chance to run around and check everyones pieces out! I caught a few and everything looked AWESOME! I have no idea if my canvas sold yet as I had to leave the fest early to join in some other Jubilee events! If you spot it let me know ^-^
