Back when I started in April, my goal was to finish by the 15th of August so the paintings would have enough time to dry before I had to take them off the stretcher bars and roll them up. It took working 15 to 20 hours a day to reach the goal. I am tired now and feel like I have aged 15 years. But I am so happy with the paintings. I haven't updated the blog on the progress too much on account that I was either asleep or painting over the last 4 months. But I did take pics and I will start adding posts of the progress pics I took. This next group of pictures were taken by my friend Cassidy Stanton. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Stanton-Photography/191186590915290">See her facebook page here.</a> Thanks Cass! <br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I must be the most un-important person that ever had a documentary made about them. Hawk Zatar from Spiral of Life Studios came in to the studio a couple times a week to film the process and progress of the paintings. He started filming from the day I hung the canvas' on the wall up until about the half way point. It was nice having a weekly visitor at the studio. After a few 16 hour days of painting by myself, the company was appriciated. It kept me sane I think. </div><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">It was interesting wathching a documentary about a painting I was still working on, and am still working on! It made the concept fresh in my mind again and has been a great motivator to push to fininish the painting. I have eight days to finish....</div>ADRIAN Waggonerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15170550418905218937noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2395989009487540997.post-68353079011764166542011-07-16T21:24:00.000-07:002011-07-16T21:26:18.458-07:00DILEMMA<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">I have one month left to finish this painting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am working on it on average ten to 12 hours a day and getting home at about <time hour="3" minute="0">3 am</time>.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am wearing myself out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Right now I am facing a dilemma.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have been thinking about this painting for so long.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I feel like it is an important painting in my young career.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And I am rushing to complete it for this competition that started out as an excuse to paint it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I don’t feel like the quality is suffering yet, but my health and well being is.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My mind has lost track of everything and anything except this painting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I bought tickets to see one of my favorite bands, The Avett Brothers, and I completely spaced going.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The only reason I am able to spend time on this blog now, is because I am on an airplane flying in from <city><place>L.A.</place></city><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I came out here for the launch of issue number 9 of BlueCanvas magazine which I am featured in, and almost spaced it too!</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><!--StartFragment--> </div><div class="MsoNormal">A lot of people have asked me why I would paint such a large painting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What am I going to do with it?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Who would buy it?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Who has the wall space?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All good questions I suppose, but none that I ever consider when I start a painting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I suppose a better question is why do I paint at all?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I paint to get images out of my mind.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I see the painting before I even start it, and the only way to get rid of it, is to paint it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The idea for this painting has been floating around in my head for a while.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It started out at eight feet, but as I thought about it more, it had to be life size, which meant it would be 19 feet long and 6 feet tall.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And the painting that faces it would be 12 feet long and 6 feet tall.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The problem with canvases that large is that once I stretch them in my studio, the only way they are coming out is if I take the canvas off the stretcher bars and break the stretcher bars down to 8 foot lengths. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Another problem with painting this size is cost… That would be enough to stop any sensible person.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before I started the painting, and after pricing out materials, I spent a couple anxiety filled weeks facing the reality that I WAS going to do this painting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It wasn’t a question of weighing out the pros and cons and making a rational decision.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In my mind I already knew I was going to no matter what.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The idea was there, and it had to be painted, I was there only to facilitate its creation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">To help rationalize this decision in my mind, and for those around me that gave me the cocked-eye-brow-look, I am entering the painting into a competition in September called ArtPrize.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has a large cash prize and set the minds of those close to me a little more at ease that I am doing this to win some big bucks.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The truth is, I would do it even if there was no competition, and the chances of me getting in are extremely small…<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br />

To draw them accurate to each other, I had to measure each person when they came in to pose, then figure out how to translate that to figures with no feet! I would tell you how I did it, but I don't want to. It was too complicated.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

It was quite the ordeal. I had to tie it off to my ceiling just to keep it from falling over. It took three days and 4 buckets of gesso to cover it with 6 coats. I ordered the stretcher bars from a company out of Canada that specializes in large canvases, eh. They turned out to be super fantastic! All the pieces break down to 6 foot lengths, which is important, since the only way this painting can come out of my studio is if I take it apart! Thanks Canada! </div>ADRIAN Waggonerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15170550418905218937noreply@blogger.com0
