This is a painting of my father-in-law's dog. An old beagle. It's a shame the camera doesn't really capture the translucent effect I painted into the eyes. Come to think of it, I wish the eyes hadn't turned out quite so lopsided, but she sometimes looks that way. I'm not sure if that's due to the angle of the photo I had to work with, or the saggy fur around the eyes. She is old, but a cute, lovable dog.
My first attempt at a space painting. It's just your average imaginary comet flying through space. It turned out better than I thought it would, but yeah... it's just a comet. Nothing more to see here, move along... :p
Now what aspiring artist hasn't painted a sunflower? I just had to give it a try. I painted this one on a clay tablet. Making the tablet was an interesting adventure in itself. It was also odd painting on it. Acrylic paint behaves differently on it, but I like the effect I got out of it.
It turned out a bit more geometric than I wanted, but I learned a bit more about painting cliffs and the sky. I gave this one to my dad since he loves lighthouses.
This one turned out better. It has that dream-like quality I was going for at least. It was also fun to paint.
Yeah ok, I know it isn't that great, but I think I did halfway decent for my first attempt.
Ok so it's not so daily. I've been busy with *gasp* real life! EEEK! Anywho, here it is, in all it's horrible splendor. Enjoy.
