Duchess Kat Antoinette

11X 14 Oil,...
3-d paper flowers oil painted

it is finished!....^_^...and i love it....it's a self portrait of myself, based on this painting of Marie Antoinette .

i used 3-d paper flowers, then painted them with oil paint to make them match....

i feel this is a good look at my style of how i see myself, ( for cartoon-y-ness is a large part of my art)

took me 12 hours to do....

Kat Antoinette

sculpey clay,
5 1/4 inches high

while attempting to make a bust of Marie Antoinette, i decided it looked more like me, therefore i decided to make it me ^_^

i figure every artist needs at least on good self portrait painting, and a bust of themselves...^_^....

and with my personality i like to twist old paintings and sculptures of people, and make them into myself...

Keira Knightley,
Acrylic craft paint, 18X24

i am so proud of my newest painting!....i call this style, pop art mixed with Kat style.....it's black and white, but with some blue in the background and chair....i'm starting to really love my black and white paintings! exploring fabric and hair...making it cartoon-y yet realistic is fun, and i really like this "style" of how i paint....and i'm quite proud of my paintings...since i'm not a painter, i just like to paint, if u get that?...i don't put myself in the "painting box", i like to think there is no box! lol

& the Style goes on

me, in Russian outfit

A collection of friends done in my new style 

top row: me, Melissa, Jayna

bottom: Lucy, Darla, Ashley

This is a little doodle style i came up with, i like it, it's simple and yet has a slight retro feel to it, i think. + it's a challenge making these look like the ppl they represent. it's all in the hair and lips. 

^_^
