planing

Started to work on a new project that was some time in the works. I had the idea for a while but as always get side tract for one reason or another. It’s going to be an airbrushed banner with a tropical theme to it. The airbrushed image is going on a cloth canvas, which will be sewn on top of burlap. I think I’m going to put a special solution to stiffen and to prevent the burlap from fraying too much. Then it’s going to have some bamboo inserts so that later it can be hung from twine so that it can go on my door. It’s a good alternative to creating murals which I can’t do considering that I still live in my parents house. Another bonus being that at least I can take it with me and it will be another great portfolio piece.

I just started to trace the line drawing I originally fixed up on the computer from my original drawings but still have to look for some references of tropical drinks. I can trace that drawing later since it wouldn’t matter if some of the previous tracing from the other drawing show though.
