Tulips

I worked on a few floral paintings, which have been just a lot of fun. Also, they gave more a chance to think more of color and techniques in a nice simple subject matter.

under the sea mural finished

Here is the finished mural, I took these pics with my phone so they are not the best quality. I'll take new photos next week and upload them.

another mural

this is my "under the sea " mural that I'm currently working on. There is still a lot to do, I barely am just done with putting some f the background colors in, and just started adding some sea life. I'm doing this for a 9 year old girl, in the planning of this mural I was trying to be age consciousness. So far it's going good, I'm having fun and the family is liking it. There is still a third wall to this mural that I didn't have a decent photo of. I'll try to publish it later this week.

Tree Mural

I know I haven't posted anything in a few months. However, i have been working on a bunch of new stuff, just haven't gotten to post them yet. But I will be very soon.

This is a mural I worked on this sunday, my client had something very specific in mind. I really enjoyed working on this one, the flat one color scheme of the mural was a nice break from the more complex painting i usually do. It also gave more of a chance to work on the curvy lines and stylization of the tree.

I'll try to post better images for it.

more Plein-air painting

Self-Portrait

Oil on Canvas. Still working on those portraits =) it was actualy a little more of a struggle working on a self-portrait. It's just hard to stop, the longer I work on it, the more I see.

Getting back in to Plein air painting

I'm trying to get more Plein-air paintings done. However, by keeping my composition simple and more zooming in to the objects, I'm working more on my color choices, and understaning what happens to the color under the sunlight and in shadow.
