Olympus '82

I've been working on a few pieces for an upcoming show and I finally got around to finishing them this evening. Can't go wrong with Greek deities. Or Mucha, for that matter.

The show is called "The Little People Project" and is themed around pieces of art no larger than 7". Truth be told, I usually find myself doodling in a tiny moleskin so it was a really fun project to work on. There are lots of other fantastic artists in the show, which will be held in Tucson, AZ at Lulubell: Toy Bodega.

Here is the finishes piece as well as a detail of Hera. For the skin I played around with using an acrylic wash of similar color to the paper I was working on which resulted in an almost metallic sheen when the light hits the piece. You can't really tell in the detail, but it's really quite cool.

The Titan was just a doodle on the back of the mat board.
