Making a Background

Well I changed my mind as to which background I will do first. I've decided that I will do the outdoor background. I'll be helping with a VBS program in a few weeks, the theme is bugs, and the outdoor background would be useful for that set up so I'm doing it now.

Below is a line drawing of what the background will look like. I plan to paint the back drop with some nice bright colors.


I'll be painting the scene on 4X6 foot canvas which I've primed to ensure the canvas doesn't soak up all the paint.

I've Been Very Busy

I know it's been almost a month since I last posted and to answer any of your concerns I want to assure you that I have not given up on the Joshua Junebug and Friends project. but I have been very busy with almost every other aspect of my life and when push comes to shove my hobbies almost always end up getting pushed.

I do have some preliminary sketches of the school house background and plan to post them after I refine them a bit more.

Thanks for your patience with me as I balance try to keep my life in balance.
