Description
gouiche gouache~~Oh god gouache. Gouache ..
I have a history with hating gouache. And I still hate it! Despite the fact that I love to use it... isn't that complicated and a little dumb? I like to think we have one of those weird hateful relationships that we both secretly enjoy, gouache and I.
Anyway this piece, despite being painted in my arch nemesis gouache, is about my favorite thing in the whole world: MY SISTERBEAST . This was done for the gouache segment in my Tools of the Trade class this semester, for the assignment "I can't live without _______"
Pretty much if anything happened to my sister, I'd probably cease to exist. so DEFINITELY I painted my sister. I tried to boil down the essence of Rachel and put it into one 10 x 10 painting, and this is how it came out: My sister flying over the city at night in something super fabulous that she probably made on her sewing machine train THAT SHE'S RIDING ON, and the man in the moon trying to give her a kiss and she's all like nuh UHH suckaaaa!!
Best. Run. On. Sentence. Ever. She totally does this like every day or something. I dont know. Because she kicks ass.
<3
(btw Rachel you have no boobs and never will.)

Need more spirit, more expression.
As for the whimsy of the flying slipper, I am afraid Jean Honore Fragonard beat you to it:

The moon is quite enchanting. Lovely work. And even though you were using opposite colors, it's not dramatic, but full of movement, and very fun and free. I really like it.
