Slap it on

Here’s my latest bit of ‘art’. To be honest, I really enjoyed doing the drawing but then didn’t really have a plan of what to do with it. It was ok as a drawing, but just a picture of a naked blokey in the middle of a white page, so not terribly inspiring (though one or two of the ladies in the art group did comment on his nice bum – what can I say…they’re getting on a bit, don’t get to see that sort of thing very often!) Anyhoo… the other morning I was in a slap-it-on mood, so went for the acrylics and an old credit card and hey presto… a piece of art… well sort of.  It’s definitely under the right heading of ‘is it art?’ I actually quite like it. What do you think? Be nice… I’m a bit self-conscious about me paintin’!

Green sleeves…

… Green trousers, green carpet…. errr… that’s what I ended up with while I was having a bash at this painting.

I present to you my latest adventure with acrylics.  My very first landscape. Lots of green.  I know it’s a bit heavy handed, and some of the trees have gone a bit awry, but since I’m still trying to master mixing good greens, and I always shy away from attempting to paint anything with a suggestion of water in it, I’m reasonably ok with the result.  I feel as if I’m very, very, slowly improving and beginning (beginning) to enjoy the (oh god, here it comes…) Journey.
