What Are You Working On Today?

[MikeKrausArt]

DISCUSSION ONLY THREAD: This is a thread where you can let others know what you're working on today or what goals you want to achieve. Are you listing a new product? Maybe you are preparing for the upcoming holiday. Let's work together so we can all succeed!

[MikeKrausArt]

Today, I'm working on promoting my new postcards. It's my first attempt at introducing reproductions of my work. Thought it would be a good experiment before the holiday season kicks off. Also, working on a custom painting for a charity, which is nearly complete. Just need to work on the details. See what my wife thinks. haha. And, to make some adjustments to the ART Team based on many wonderful suggestions I've received. THANKS FOR THAT!

Hey Gloria, tell us about your "new idea." Sounds exciting. What is the event in your town. Why is it so tricky? Maybe someone on the team can help!

i m trying to make a negative bas-relief with wood, as a xylography mold. An then this panel it will be positioned on a wall made by clay.
It is a new way of building houses. They call them houses in straw.
I m collaborating with an architect.
Now I'm waiting for the clay dries to press it and leave the positive bas-relief.

Today I am working on a very cool new commission. I've been asked to do a portrait of a dog with a "Day of the Dead" twist to it. I'm pretty excited, especially since I live in a town that has a HUGE Día de los Muertos celebration each year, which is a pretty amazing experience if anybody has never personally witnessed one.

[MikeKrausArt]

Isadora, that sounds fun. I loved the Day of the Dead celebration in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago. So, I can't wait to see your piece!

[MikeKrausArt]

I'm working remotely today. My dog and I are on an adventure to get ice cream and inspiration. Mostly ice cream...

[ClarityArtDesign]

Isadora, that sounds awesome, as does icecream Mike!

Today I finished up a commissioned pup and worked on another that I'm having a hard time with, but hope to resolve all in the next couple days.

[Former_Member]

I'm working on... a blueberry dragon painting :)

[MikeKrausArt]

The ice cream was worth it. haha

Today, need to upload a couple of small pieces, finish up work on a few artist trading cards, and start painting. Oh, and catch up on treasuries.

Stephanie, good luck with the pup drawing. It can be difficult when you can't get something "just right."

Lana, I'm very curious about the blueberry dragon.
