As promised. A couple of my new paintings.
Edited on Tue Feb-08-05 06:14 PM by Longgrain
I was around last night discussing this, and I finally got around to painting a couple of new pictures this afternoon.

I just started both of these so they're works in progress only for now...

The first one was just a still life to warm up...




Some people didn't like my creepy animal paintings, but I tried to do another one anyways...





Warning it is kind of weird...








I'll post some more again in the Artist Group once I finally get something that's finished.

5. the second one is definitely creepy, and my cat , the squirrel
murder CatZilla would probably attack it so he could put the head and tail on my porch as a sacrifice to the great diety who fills the kibble and water dish

however, hope you keep on painting because you obviously do know how.

I really like the other two paintings; the dead critter one is good, I just couldn't live with it.

Sort of like Guernica; it is an amazing masterpiece and I love it but no I don't want it in my house

12. Very strong images
The second painting conveys a strong sense of sadness and desperation. Though .... looking for the words... As if desperation were only just setting in. Very moving.
