this is also another piece i completed as part of my PT. it is the arms of a maternal cousin of mine.

her dad, like many in both my maternal and paternal family, were ranchers/farmers and her dad had a tree farm and also raised prize roses and other flowers. she said he was always shooting away the vandals (coyotes and deer) who would ruin his works.

 

so we settled on a singular rose and a flayed out coronet to give the impression of a defensive fence. the base arms are, of course, what we designed years ago for the Meskels/O’Meskels who descended from our first ancestor to settle in the USA.

 

again, balance and proportion, not to mention straight lines, are out of whack. not sure if you can see it here, but look closely at the lines in the ancient irish drinking cups and you should be able to see it. plus…as you can tell i let the ink dry before i completed it and if you’ve ever painted with acrylic ink you’ll know it is very, very temperamental and is not very forgiving…at all…hence the splotch marks in the Azure of the field of the arms—i had a series of tremors come up and had to give my arm a break and, well, this is what you get and why i don’t charge, or do these, for people anymore. it is all off. but, my cousin is OK with it and thankful i was able to close her place in the queue out. so, it’s all good.

 

this piece took me about 3 days to complete, which is about 2 days longer than it used to take me.

ANOTHER reason for you to practice with gouache or acrylic paints!!!!!!!!  Damn, Denny!!!  How many hints will it take before you take my advice??

 

Maybe if ANDY made the suggestion you would apply yourself?

 

Andy????  Andy???? ........

I thought that was part of the effect, skies and water look like that!  :D

These are magnificent efforts Dennis.

Thanks again all.

Guy, I tried gouache before. It never came out as clean as the pieces I have from Andy and Ronny or we see from others. So, i quit trying my hand at them. Acrylic-based ink is a fine art medium imo. It acts a lot like watercolor. It’s just demanding as heck and not forgiving at all. It is like a puppy or new-born baby in that it demands constant attention and care and finess to work right. I can use it on watercolor paper, cartoonist paper, etc.

 

That said, you’re right. I had made up my mind a week or so ago to begin again messing around with gouache. Since I don’t know how long I’ll have with the success of my meds and PT I figure why the heck not mess around with the gouache paints again.

 

So, I will. But not with the remaining pieces from my dissolved queue. I feel so very bad about having to abandon those pieces and those people even though I told them so and why and refunded their deposits. So, for them I’ll stick with the acrylic-based inks until done and for PT projects I’ll mess around with gouache. Maybe this time around I will like them and they will like me.

 

But, again, this is all just temporary. The neurologist said the carbadopalevadopa will not work forever as my body will get used to it and then we will have to move on from there (I don’t fully trust her…she seems to grasp at straws when it comes to figuring this all out, but she’s been right with this med so far).
