Taurus

Hey Crew!

Welcome back! Sorry I have been away for a while, my time management skills are the worst still. Things are still kind of rough, but I am trying to force myself to do more. I also get distracted super easily. Time will only tell if I can break this cycle of procrastination. Send help. Anyway, time to get back to the show!

The Final Zodiacs are Here!

Basic Facts about Taurus:

Birth Dates: April 20 – May 20
Element: Earth
Ruling Planet: Venus
Symbol: The Bull
These Signs are the true definition of home-bodies. They love to feel secure and in control. At the same time they are super laid back and chill.

When I think of bulls I think of meadows and grasslands. I was trying to push the atmospheric perspective with the flat-ish plains. It worked out better than I thought it would. Trying to figure out how to paint the blades of grass was the real challenged. I think the dry brush worked well with trying to be a little abstract. What do you think?

Basic Facts about Gemini:

Birth Dates: May 21- June 20
Element: Air
Ruling Planet: Mercury
Symbol: The Twins
Bird: Magpie
Geminis are very talkative. They love open communication. They are also very thoughtful and logical people.

What better to represent Air than with birds! Magpies were the logical choice for Gemini because their gift for gab. I really, really like the brush strokes of the feathers. I also seemed to forgot to record the beginning of the creation of the birds. I was so peeved. I wanted to show you the experimental process and how it all came together. I hate technology sometimes. But I had a lot of fun with this final piece of this series.

And that is the end of the Zodiac Series! It is kind of a bitter sweet moment. I have learned so much about video editing, falling back in love with acrylics, and connecting with you. I am extremely proud of all of these pieces. Which Sign is your favorite? As one door closes and other one opens. The next series is going to be a true test for me. Time to buckle down and hash things out! In my next post I will be updating you on school, my schedule, and general life happenings. Don’t forget to check out my Insta, I am hoping to be more regular about posting on there. Time to shake out the sand and get back to the Sea!

Until next time,

Suzanna 🌙

Hey Crew!

Happy Wednesday everyone! Welcome to the first day of Side Project Wednesday! Most of the time these projects are going to be broken up into parts, because I’ll be using my free time to work on them. Are you ready to rock?

(Left) Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius / (Right) Aries, Taurus, Gemini

So here is the last of the Zodiacs. If you want to know more about the meaning behind symbols and style read the first post here.

What do you guys think? I had so much fun with these! I am really proud of how they look and how they match with the actual Tokidoki Unicornos. I enjoyed how this project pushed me to be very vector based and simple. I know that is a struggle for me. I have like this internal conflict about if I have enough detail or if things need shadow or more lines, and on the flip side I think less is more. The struggle is real.

Don’t forget to check out my IG Friday for a double picture of #BlackoutFridays. Saturday the next Sign is going to be released. Do you know which one is next? Sunday there is going to be an announcement about Sunday Comic Day! Things are moving forward. See you soon! Remember to stay safe and stay sane!

Until next time,

Suzanna 🌙
