Lol, stupid me. I just re-read your post. That's cool then, for my brother's BOW a few years ago he did something similar to you - groupings of miniature canvases ect.

This is 1 of 5. It's still not entirely finished and I couldn't capture the entire work on my web cam, but here you go. :p

I'm using watercolours and coloured pencils, but this one seems to be just watercolours for some reason. It's 115cm in length and 50cm in height.

Nice! The first mythological representation we've seen so far!.... Are you going to outline the watercolour with coloured pencil? I think that would look good....

The photo took alot of detail out, but I'll try outlining it and see how it goes.
I know it's best if we use a medium that we are good at, but I didn't. This is my first attempt at watercolours, does it really show?

Thanks for the advice/opinions. :)

Lol, so true ...I wish it was the case for me...I only ever started painting (apart from kindi:)) in year 12.


I've always been a drawing person- I do marvel and such.

Not-That-Bright - ur nickname doesnt suit you at all when I look at what you've done so far - it looks great! Maybe do two more maximum but I like 3 as a number ... it depends how your going for time ...

I think with digital media etc, you are safe with producing up to 3-9 images because of the format. What I would do, if I had the time, is produce roughly 20 images and then cull them down to the best 6-9, to be left with the cream of the crop!.... just a suggestion.

As I am using the painting format(although im using prints as well), and I am only creating two works of roughtly 55-55cm.... Is this enough for the markers to get a good enough taste of our skill/ideas? I was thinking of doing three, but dont want to over kill....lol. After all, ANYTHING can and will get into artexpress.... lol

Argh, I'm doing a series of small tiles, digital, and big panels, and my teacher keeps telling me to do MORE tiles! wouldn't it get to a point where the sheer quantity kills itself!!???

and Not-that-bright, your images are AMAZING!

Well, after you make alot you can pick out the best ones and submit those in.. you don't necessarily have to submit them all in.. =p and anyways, it'd be good because you can include them in your portfolio..
do you have a pic u could post up?

My Art Teacher actually told me not to make too many images for that reason alone, because after a while it'll sorta take away from the quality of them..

however I believe after reading how they mark the works that it would be better to insert heaps, a few even of lower quality as they're looking for a progression of style/meaning through your artwork.

Thanks for the compliment too mate :D

really impressive work not-that-bright, looks like there'll be a bit of competition in the graphic design field :)

here's a sneak peak at a couple of things i've done





needs a lot of work though
