Starting the Offgridlife Claymation Series

I did some drawings yesterday for my forthcoming Offgridlife Claymation series. Paintings and drawings based on @offgridlife ai claymation videos about Free Art Frees Art. So far, there's ten quick pencil outlines in 6B pencil on offwhite A4 size paper, and scans of each where I increased the contrast so I have some usable traces to work from when making the flat colour paintings.

The plan is to end up with five sets. One of the drawings I've already done, then four sets of paintings. One in flat colour like the Blond Cards one of black Indian ink paintings and two of loose acrylic paintings like the Heckel's Horse Jr A3 paper on cardboard series, one using the traces and another freehand. If I get the time I'd like to do some digital flat colour ones using the scans and GIMP, the image editor I use that's like free Photoshop.
Not only will they all be on cardboard with lots of surrounding Advertism but will have the following three addresses written into the artworks themselves @offgridlife , @ronthroop and @jompiy . Maybe not on all of them, but I think it will look good on at least most. FREE ART FREES ART is building quite a team to be reckoned with. I'm looking forward to taking these to The Camden Market Free Art Man display. So much so, I'm not going to Billy's today so I can get working on them, hopefully to have them done and processed for next weekend.

FREE ART FREES ART has already taken virtually all my music making time up, and I suspect will mean less Monday day trips to Chatham in the near future. The same's true of space. I don't have the room to get all the music recording gear out and set up in my studio as I need the FREE ART FREES ART stuff immediately to hand. It's a bit of a problem, but just means I need to get my workflow more organised. An hour a day for computer tasks, like writting this, an hour or two for music and a big tidy up around the house should fix it.
