mixed media

more ryman stuff. both drawn/painted from life. typically my process is to draw with prismacolor nupastel (basically colored pencils except in stick form without wood and stuff) and then work mixing watercolor and chalk pastels. nupastel shows up through the watercolor, so it's interesting to see the freedom of the preliminary line. throughout ryman, david has been pushing me to really break free from my usual 'tight' style.

the former was done in class in the span of ~3 hours, the latter out of class for homework for about also ~3 hours (minus breaks). david really liked my dumpster, but i think he just has a thing for trash (literally).
