The latest iteration of my burning tattoo series is on it's way. This one will have more blues and purples as opposed to my previous version consisting of reds and purples. Mother II is still in progress as well I haven't given up on it. I just need to wait for the paint to dry before continuing.

Paint used: Titanium White, Raw Sienna, Alizarin Crimson, Ultramarine Blue, and Cerulean Blue.

I'm still not finished, and not happy with the child's face. So it is blurred out so that no one can see how horrible it looks at the moment. I just wanted to make sure and send a post soon because it might just take me another week to get this face looking the way I want it to look.

Colors used: Titanium White, Raw Sienna, Alizarin Crimson, Ultramarine Blue, and Cerulean Blue.

I tried to use a great deal of red and green in this painting. I feel like this color scheme doesn't match my personality. I'll probably go back to painting purplish skin tones again soon.

Paints used: Titanium White, Raw Sienna, Alizarin Crimson, Ultramarine Blue, and Ivory Black.

It's back! I am finally starting on this painting, again, for the forth time. I think that this version is going to be the successful version. I'll just tuck the other starts and stops away in my closet to be mocked at a future date. I don't want to look at them while I'm working on this for fear of jinxing the process.

Colors used: Titanium White, Raw Sienna, Alizarin Crimson, Ultramarine Blue, and Cerulean Blue.
