Gorilla Painting: The Making of… In pictures and video
As silverback gorilla’s are my favorite animal I was more than challenged in being commissioned to paint one. In every aspect from their presence and expressions, I love all of the attributes of a gorilla, including the way they move. As I am so fond, I could not imagine not trying to involve as much of the traits I love about them into the painting itself. My starting point for this piece was documented in a video which shows the progression of the gorilla’s face from scratch (with a bit of Biffy Clyro…) WATCH HERE on my youtube channel. It is images from here on out, different sizes, angles, styles to fully show the work the progression of the painting. Hope your enjoy! , Katy x http://www.facebook.com/katyjadedobsonart Commissions – http://www.katyjadedobson.com
The person behind the paintings.
I follow so many kinds of blogs, from other art blogs, to fashion, cooking, health, gossip, news, and personal blogs. The kind that capture my heart are always the personal blogs. They keep me returning to hear how someones life develops, how their projects have panned out and this makes me see the connection between them and the work they are doing.

But the community I have noticed on wordpress is a friendly and responsive one that has already helped me better my paintings and gain new subjects to work with. Interaction with people on the same level and enjoying the same things is what keeps me posting and updating. For this reason, I want my posts to be rich in substance for …

Peaceful Morning
I’m back!!
I have had a leave of absence from creating any paintings or pieces, as well as having a long time away from this blog. I am however back in full force with to-do lists raging and armed with many genres (painting, drawings, photography, tattooing) to get stuck into. After being away from my work for a while I have had so many new ideas written down that I can’t wait to get started on, however I’m mostly excited about using the Internet to its full potential. To communicate with other artists and the rest of the world, join the many art communities and forums and get involved! If anyone has any tips or can help a technospaz like myself it would be greatly appreciated! For now, I cannot separate my desires to explore all the genres of art that I am dipping my toes into, so I will have to juggle them all! Personal challenge accepted. Here is a picture taken today, one that inspired me to get back into my paintings and art work. …
