The Tongue

This is one of those subjects I never intended. I just started painting and saw it.

Spashes of blue

I was trying something else, but this looked so good,

as splashes of blues on orange, that I kept it that way.

Windows 8 Paint program
 
I started by painting a simple with some simple brush touches on a mix of blue, black and white acrylics. I then used the painting program in my Windows 8 system to give it an outline and an ear

the Ugly Face

While this is certainly one of my most beautiful paintings, it isn't one of my favorites, since I had considerable help from my teacher

Waterfall & Waterfall 2

Waterfall 2 is similar to Waterfall, except that I added some green and put it on a two by three foot canvas. My orginal Waterfall is on a nine by twelve inch canvas.

Street

This landscape was a responce to a request to make a more realistic piece. The buildings were outlined in red paint, and I colored them with red and other colors on my brush, varying the direction of strokes, along with color and tone. Next time I will also separate the buildings. when several share a side of the street.

Pink Face

This, like Waterfall, also started out as an experiment in tone and space, which also came out well

Tree

I originally wanted to experiment with different shadings and thicknessess of blue and red, and what I got looked like a good background, so I added the tree. Was the tree a good idea or should I have left it out?

Units paper

Continuing with my Units series, this time done with markers, glue and construction paper on a 9x12 panel

Curtains

This started out as an experiment with transparent & opaque colors. It really became interesting when I added the white as stippling instead of strokes.

Wire and Shadow

I saw this on the table and loved the composition. Look at how the white wire looks so different from its shadow. The pen and fork add to this

first abstract art lesson

One thing I have learned is that abstract art does not have to look real. It does not have to look good. It has to be wrong. So, for your first lesson, I want you to draw, paint, or otherwise create art, wrong. Draw with your left hand, or if you are a lefty, use your right. Do other things to spoil your art, like, smearing lines or color. spill color. Figuratively, blow your nose in it!

Now, forgetting it's wrongness, how do you like it?

Octopus' Garden

I had a dry spell for a month or more, then, I decide to do something simple, just to get my mind and hands working artistically again. I have a friend who's a Beatles fan, so I threw this on a canvas, He loved it. Unfortunately, my camera didn't. It is a bit blurred. Normally, I'd use my scanner, but that was giving me problems, at the time.
