The Hanged Man and The World
Added 2023-03-26 17:09:48 +0000 UTCI had ambitions to finish two tarot paintings this month, but I didn't pay close attention to my family calendar. Kids on spring break, school field trips, and now out-of-town visitors are taking big chunks out of my work time recently. It's been nice, but I'm stretched a little thin. In the midst of the distractions, I lost track of time and forgot to post.
I'll be sharing the progress on these two paintings and then I'll wrap them up early in April so that I can jump into the next two.
The Hanged Man and The World continue my trend of eschewing shortcuts in favor of drawing everything manually. Both of them had false starts and failed sketches that absorbed a day or two of work each before I made the wise choice to start again fresh. No amount of grit and commitment can overcome a weak foundation, so I would rather lose a week of work than be stuck forever trying to polish a failed painting.
