Who is this: Comfy Pants

I painted the details of my comfy pants today. I love these pants, I wear them often.

Painting plaid takes a lot of focus and counting. I started with a particular vertical stripe, then counted stripes to the right and left from there to get the shape of the lines in the right order and direction. With a grid of lines like this it is easy to get confused on which line your working to reproduce as they all look very similar. But don’t let their similarity fool you, each one has its own subtle curve that describes the body underneath.

I'm an artist on a mission to do at least 30 minutes of art every single day for the rest of my life and track that progress on my website for all to see. I'm past the 10 year mark and I'm still going strong. Now it's time to give back and help other artists create a life long habit of creating.
