Renovation

This site has been here only for a while, and I noticed I don't post as much about my Jakey. So, I am going to do some tweaking, which has already started.



I already changed my web address to www.kurisko.blogspot.com.


For those who don't speak Hiligaynon, kuris ko means "my scribblings/sketches/nonsense doodles".




This site will mainly be for posting my future, and old artworks. See you around!

Wildflowers (for sale)

So, it was a Tuesday afternoon and I felt like doing some painting. I wanted to try it without the usual sketch and outlining, and go straight to laying on the paint. I have always loved wildflowers and like seeing fields of them scattered around. That was what I decided to do and in 3 hours, I was able to finish it. By the way, this is available for sale. Contact me if interested! :)

Novie's "Studio"

When I paint, I like setting up my materials in front of the TV. Yeah, I don't usually have any idea about more than 50% of what it is shown there, but I like hearing something while I work on the canvas. Usually I would pick channels like Disney, because I like being lighthearted when I paint. This is usually what my "studio" looks like.

Essentials:
1. Blank canvas, for obvious reasons
2. Easel for the canvas to sit on
3. Brushes of different types
4. Acrylic paint--I buy big tubes of white and yellow ochre because I use them a lot.
5. Plastic plates are the ones I use as palettes. They are great and they're disposable!
6. Spray bottle to dilute the paint and keep them from drying up
7. 2 cups of water (1 for warm colors, 1 for cool)--I like having 2 cups so I won't have to go back and forth to change the water everytime I change colors.
8. Newspaper to keep the table clean
9. Old rag-I forgot to include that here, but I use that to wipe paint off the paintbrush or remove excess water.
10. Remote control to change channels!
