The Drawing Table: Game Designs
In between the adventures of a back-to-school schedule,
I was able to paint in the studio one sunny afternoon.....
I am working on my games collection. Currently, there are 5 different game designs, including farm, botanical, halloween, astronomy, and animal themes..
On this particular summer afternoon, I completed potatoes, broccoli, carrot, avocado, and grape designs. I usually start by painting the background and then I add the image's shadow.
Next, I add the details. I should really work with a potato or photo of one before me, but I usually just paint intuitively.
The game pieces will be 2.5 x 2.5 inches.
I love to paint! Now that I own a business and am a mama to two busy sons, my sunny afternoons painting for hours are few.....
so I cherish these moments of complete creative freedom!
My sketchbook with the "On the Farm" design sketches...
The scene just outside the studio...
I must resist the temptation to lay there with a good book...the challenges of working in a beautiful location!
I am hoping to have the games available for sale October 1st,
so I better get back to work......
Thanks for visiting my mountain studio! Have an inspired weekend!
