paintings

I think I may add paintings to this blog. I hate to just start another win I have this sitting right here.

I have made mom some stretcher canvases and she decided that I should pick up painting also, well at least give it a try. She purchased some acrylic paints for me, gave me a pallet knife, a couple of brushes, pallet paper and it seems something else besides a quick lesson. I have had a fun time with it. I am not a great artist. I prefer wood working. However, it is a great extension of creativity and it allows me to learn something else. I am not good with perspective yet. Hopefully I will get better.

These first pics were on paper that I coated with gesso.



Yes, not much to look at. I had watched many videos on how to paint. These are my first attempts.

...an abstract

This is more of what I consider a pure abstract. I tried it and liked it over all.

Not so good paintings

I say that because my perspective is not great because I have little experience in making it correctly. The bottom one was an attempt at doing a painting with a reference. It is beyond my skill level. I will get better, at least I hope I do. Anyway, the bottom painting became the below painting and it is still evolving.
