RIVER DRAGON is coming.......

Another update on my River Dragon installation piece I am doing for
Winter Magic's 'Art Street' which is in Katoomba on the 23rd of June......

These are photos of the big central piece, it still needs a bit of work,
the wingy things need to be glazed back and the head
needs some glazing definition and maybe a little more
subtle glazing on the body.......But I am happy so far........

These are the other 2 smaller parts of the installation,
there was suppose to be a 3rd one, but I think I am
going to run out of time.......As these both still need
some work on them.........And it is also assignment time........
Please excuse the photo quality.......

WINTER MAGIC - WATER DRAGON

Have finally started work on my Winter Magic Water Dragon
for the Artstreet competition......
I am really lucky, as I am showing my work in Omnia which
is a beautiful Asian/Retro/Manga shop up the top of
Katoomba Str..

I have been inspired to use more recycled material in my work,
so have taken boxes and then done a paper-mache layer on the
outside then a basic undercoat........

I am really enjoying painting on form which gives you great
opportunities to play with shape and movement in a totally
different way.

Without further a due here is what I have created so far:

And here is the big one which will have a lot of the Water Dragon
on it with the head and more watery wings.......

I am happy so far, but there is still quite a bit to do.
Besides the obvious of painting the big box and painting
the dragon, there is also a lot of finer detail and glazing
to work at, but I am happy with the process so far.......
