365/2013 - Day 343

slight changes

Well, my furnace guy's guy came today and we thought things were fixed but then when he checked one last time, the condensation collector pump thing was leaking again so I do need a new one and he did not have one on the truck, so he has to come back again tomorrow.  I have heat (I was never w/o heat), the humidifiers(s) are finally on, but the water is still leaking onto the floor by the furnace.

The other slight changes are with the goat guy collage.  I decided to switch Hershey with my GBF (goat boyfriend whose name I still don't remember).  I printed out the photo I took, fooled around with the color and size and printed out a couple of black and white "head shots" that I cut out and was thinking of collaging onto the board...but I wasn't happy with the b+w copies so I went back to the color and tried using carbon paper to transfer an image of sorts.  I don't hate the results, I am just not sure I will go with this version because I am not very confident with shading and painting and coloring.  We'll have to wait and see how things unfold.


How the collage looked when I started out today...Hershey.
Hershey erased...but you can still see a little bit of him...plus the original image that is coming through the papers that put me in mind of a goat.
The altered photo of my goat boyfriend.

Carbon paper tracing.
The result.  This needs a lot of work, plus I think he needs horns.  My GBF doesn't have horns.
Hershey is a great goat, but my GBF is definitely more photogenic and handsome.  But then again my GBF is a pure-bred goat who is used for breeding.  I don't remember what kind of goat he is...maybe I will look it up.

365/2013 - Day 342

same headache(s), different day

Man...I still have the same throbbing/splitting headache(s).  The furnace guy is sending his guy tomorrow.  I have high hopes things will start to straighten out a little.

Meanwhile...I tried to work on this goat-guy collage tonight.  I wanted to try to use Hershey as my reference but I don't know...his coloring is beyond my capabilities I think.  I am not knocking myself, just trying to be realistic.  I also have a picture of my "goat boyfriend" (whose name I cannot recall).  Maybe I can eventually turn this collage into something that looks more like my GB.  I know, I know...he is a different kind of goat than Hershey...but what the heck...I can't really draw a "real" goat anyway...let alone paint one.  Ha ha...yeah.

Hershey was the reference/model for my goat guy collage.
Trying to block out some color with colored pencil...not really working.
I think Hershey's coloring is too complicated for me.
My GB (goat boyfriend) might work out better.
