Goofy painting

A-huk! It's a GOOFY painting! Another painting study I did, this time of a small Goofy sculpture observing overcast lighting conditions (indoors). Note that there are minimal highlights and no deep shadows.   

Seriously, who doesn't love Goofy? I wouldn't trust the person who says they dislike Goofy. If I was conducting a job interview and it came up they didn't like Goofy, I would dismiss them and shred their resume. And since we've established all mentally balanced people love Goofy, the next logical step is for you to add this painting to yourGoofy-loving-shrine-goodness! (Did I mention FREE shipping on the painting studies to US and Canada? A-huk!)  

Timing Charts - tonal block-in

Here is the tonal block-in for my latest painting 'Timing Charts'. Another new painting I'm creating for The Artist Project in Toronto, February 18-21.

Timing Charts - drawings

Here is the final rough and line drawing for the painting 'Timing Charts'. One of the new paintings to be exhibited in The Artist Project Toronto February 2016. ‪

Tight rough drawing.

Clean drawing. This is what I will scan and blow up the size of the painting surface I will work on, and then print out. The purpose of the cleanup is so the lines are decisive - I don't have to guess which is the lines I want to keep.

Planning multiple works for an exhibition

The current state of my studio desk resembles a still life. On the animation disc is a drawing I'm working on right now for a new painting to be exhibited in The Artist Project 2016 that's requiring me to brush up on my anatomy. Props include: modeling clay, a Goofy maquette, Victor Perard's Anatomy And Drawing book, a poseable 'Burne Hogarth resembling' anatomical figure and a coyote skull.

I'm creating some new work for the fair mentioned above and I'm doing something a little different this time.

Normally, I'll make a list of the new works (often with the final titles already in mind), then pick one, start developing it, complete it - then start a new one. The cycle repeats till all the works are completed.

This time, I'm going to develop ALL the drawings for the new paintings first -  then paint them one after another. I'm curious to see how it works out. It could take me longer, or it could take me sooner.

How do YOU plan multiple works for an exhibition? I would like to hear your thoughts. Let me know in the comments please.
