"Blue Haired Girl"
16"x20" Oil and Acrylic on Canvas
2011
This painting started off with me dropping a wide range of colors on the surface of the canvas. I sat the canvas on the floor and just let the paint fall on top of it. These splatters of paint made for a pretty interesting background. The girl in the painting came next. She wasn’t really based on any person in particular but seems to be influenced again by animated characters. I wasn’t thinking about that when I painted her, but the final painting does resemble an animated character. The girl seems a bit sad, it might be the blue and gray colors she is painted in or her dark eyes. The hair is fanning out like it is blowing in the wind or she is posing like a model with a fan blowing.
