Ron got drunk pretty early today. Hopefully, he got all the noisy out of his system.
When I got up from my (ha!) nap (couldn't sleep with the racket), I did this:
I'm pretty pleased with the concept. The figure, down on one knee, praying - the huge tidal wave threatens, but the figure is calm and faithful. He knows God will protect him, or her. You can't really see the raft (figure is on a small raft), and the ocean can use a lot of work. I would like a better "spray" near the wave; but I like it. The bare bones are down on paper.
I also have a concept of a tornado; and even a mushroom cloud rising over a city... as the figure is calm and focused on God. I don't know how I could paint fire, but that's another one I could do, figure menaced by fire
I'm having fun with it; and it addresses something I feel needs expression. I know it's crude, I've never had art training, I can't draw, but I was flattered if someone asked me if I planned to sell my paintings.
The first couple will probably go to family, if they are interested. I obviously plan to keep one (tornado, for a couple of reasons), for myself.
I told Ron I needed him to let me sleep tonight; he feels bad if he wakes me up. I plan to shut my door so I can get some rest; he's been pretty rowdy today.
