spn J2 Big Bang ART POST

[meesasometimes]

YAY!!! My first Big Bang art post EVER!!! So exciting. I was thrilled to be able to pick up this charming, lovely, dark story by i_o_r_h_a_e_l called A Little Bear and His Wolf. Jensen is an adorable troubled shifter bear and Jared is his concerned hot shifter wolf teacher and it reads to me like a J2 Grimms fairytale and how wonderful is that?

Never having done art before I wanted to just play to my strengths and do what I know. So I designed and stitched the title banner on linen and went for that fairytale feeling.

Then I decided to create these companion portraits, which I stitched in black, then watercolored, put on fabric backgrounds and added the text from i_o_r_h_a_e_l 's story. I had a great time working on these. I hope that shows.

I know everyone says, if only they had more time...lol...how true, there is a scene that involves cake that I would have started on next. Alas.
Thank you so much to the wonderful i_o_r_h_a_e_l , a perfect first writer for me who just let me go at it and was all in from the
beginning for whatever wacky thing I created :) ♥  And thank you to my sweetheart big_heart_june who gets my crazy messages and loves me anyway and to meus_venator who gave me the pep talk and hand holding I so desperately needed for my first foray out. And thank you everyone for inspiring me to just jump right in and have fun doing what I love and sharing it with you ♥

And now that I've posted, I can't wait to get started on the next project and catch up on some Big Bang fic...can you all believe I haven't read a single one yet. Geesh.

Hot damn, this is cool! When you told me about the stitching, I was already excited but I never imagined how far you would take it; absolutely stunning design, bb. The mixed media pieces are fabulous, such creativity, very inspirational:) Welcome to the BigBang Art Club, I hope you join us again for other projects. *chinhands and scrolls up and down and up and down*

well, obviously you know your creative process inspires me. So thanks again. I'm glad you liked the mixed media...it just sort of came together as I was trying to figure out a new program to add text digitaly and then *lightbulb moment*! Print on paper, tear it, it will add shadows and dimension and be way cooler. Kind of a happy mistake;

I have another BigBang art coming in August~ that's right, my first time and I jumped in with 2? WHAT?

I had to scroll down to see if you had seen this yet, because I knew that you would love this! Not only had you seen it and loved it, but you had obviously been included in the secret beforeand! So, my friend, is this one I should keep my eye on to soak up inspiration in the future?
