This is the first of seven colour sketches I intend to do for a project I've set upon myself - the Seven Deadly Sins. I know - it's been done many many times before, but they're such a fun project! And hopefully when I'm done I will still be up to drawing their counterparts - the Seven Virtues.
This is the sketch for Wrath, or Anger, as many will know her. These will all be coloured as per colour meaning, and each will have its own symbol - whether hidden in the painting or blatantly obvious. I intend to make these somewhat like tarot cards when it comes to being jam-packed full of symbolism... But that might not turn out. I will have to find out. Having fun so far, though.

Minimaid (Reply)Total Posts: 1929Sep 12, 2006 10:08 pmNot really just reds and blacks, no. I want to use MOSTLY reds and blacks for this one, but certainly not exclusively. I am going to use my normal painting style - dominant colour scheme, but a little bit of anything necessary. --- |

Minimaid (Reply)Total Posts: 1929Sep 13, 2006 7:22 pm*grin* I know all about being slowed down. If it weren't for school, I'd be on sin#4 at least, by now. Ah well, I'm still enthusiastic about this. Thanks SO much for all that info, by the way, it's helping a lot for giving me ideas! --- |
