Status: offline 		I've been working on my Rips the past weeks. I'm really like to do Rips.  It gives me a chance to step out of my own style a little and try on someone else's.  It's just a bit nerve-wracking wondering what my partners will think.

I'm doing 2 this year.  One is finished, but I'm having trouble getting a good photo of it.  I'm well along the way with the second one, but still have some work to do.  Maybe I'll get it done tomorrow.  

Anyone else working on a rip this weekend?

Status: offline 		I have set up my still life for my RIP of Heather and am not sure I'm happy with any of the photos I took, so I think I'll do a composite. Or something. And I have printed out a copy of the work of Noelle's that I'm going to RIP, and worked on some sketches for the girl's position.
And that's about the extent of it so far.
Actually, I need to get a move on, as I'm leaving for France on July 28...

Alma!  Have you shown your finished rips to your partiners?  Any chance we can get a glimpse?

Working up courage. Honestly I am definitely out of my comfort zone here. I will have to show pretty soon. I struggle with the fact that I simply can not out and out rip anything. I made some minor changes and tried to hold to the original style I also had to scale down the size on both as I can't paint, I had to stick to color pencils, which is a bit more tedious, and in order to finish I had to make them smaller than the originals. I am going to be so fired!. I am holding on to the "your interpetation" clause in the rules. My Bad!!!!

Status: offline 		(((Heather))) I hope you like that...it was my first RIP too.  

I'm like you Alma,  I have a hard time doing a straight RIP of someone's work...I have to do something with my own stamp on it.  I don't reallyn think the person I'm ripping wants a dupilcate of something they already made themselves. 

I've gotten very cool rips from my partners too.  I could post all of them, but here's one I got from Donna that illustrates her interpreting my paintings.

Status: offline 		I love RIPS. I signed up in the thread, but noone took me up on it. I couldn't work on it until after I get to Charleston, so probably just as well. Alma, please let's see!

For another example, go look at Marc MacCallum's RIP of my dogwood.

Status: offline 		I did my rips in a frenzy two weeks ago, and am just waiting to get in from the printer so I can ship them out to my partners.  Can't get an address for one of my partners, though...she seems to have fallen off the map.

I love Ripped Off...what a wonderful idea.
