Make me your canvas


Creatively speaking, we're born with a body of skin that for some doubles as a blank canvas to artistic channels...the largest organ of the human body, our markings exemplify distinctiveness from among the masses.

Fake Tattoos is trendy website specializing in non-toxic, high quality temporary tattoos that last 5-10 days and can easily be removed with soap and water. If you haven't heard of them, you should definitely take a minute to browse through their wonderful selection!

The Body

You can barely see it in the last post , so here's a clearer picture of   what I've been working on in my new art studio... not that it hasn't come with little stop your heart stress moments.   The first time I attempted this piece, now referred to as The Body , was mutually as terrifying as it was exhilarating. It was the first full hand drawing I'd ever attempted, and everything was going smoothly until the moment I decided to incorporate oil paint, also the first in my artwork experiences. My grandmother was an award-winning artist, but now, without her wealth of knowledge and go-to advise, this is really a learning/teach yourself process.
