Finally, some pictures...

I've been on a roll, painting in every spare moment lately. I've been so busy with that and other things that I haven't had any time to post. As a result of this streak of inspiration, I have lots and lots of artwork to post on here, I'm so excited! I used my regular digital camera to take these pictures, so they're not the best, but they'll do! *Please keep in mind that although in the pictures, these pieces might look flat, they are actually 3-dimensionally raised, because of the thickness of the paint used. It is impossible to get the full effect in a photograph.


This is 'Serpent', which is acrylic paint on 1/4 of a piece of regular 8 1/2 x 11 computer paper.




This piece is called 'Connections', which is also acrylic on 1/4 of a piece of regular computer paper.




'Celestial', which is one of my favorite pieces so far. Acrylic paint on an 8'x10' canvas.




This is a piece which I made for my grandmother; she has blue & white china in a pattern similar to the background on this painting. She also loves chickens, so I made her one! Sure, it's abstract and looks more like a chimera, but she's going to love it! (I completely forgot to give it to her last time I visited... Ooops! >.>) It's called 'China', for obvious reasons. Acrylic on an 8'x10' canvas.




I haven't figured out a name for this painting yet, which makes me feel rather guilty, to be honest. But then again, I always have had to have a name for everything before I could invest myself in it. Not one of my favorites due to the colors and the busyness, but I do like the way the swirls came out. Acrylic on an 8'x10' canvas.




After I finished this one, I looked at it and instantly thought, 'This is like something from The Hobbit!' Thus, it was dubbed 'Mirkwood'. Unfortunately, it was only supposed to be an experiment, so the glossy paper the acrylic paint is on is ensuring that it slowly crumbles. I'm going to transfer it to a more stable surface, disassembling it and then piecing it back together. It should be awesome once it's done.




'Flee' is acrylic on paper made for acrylic paint. I was so excited when I found this paper, because it's soooo much cheaper than canvas, and the paint goes on just as well, if not better. It's completely black & white, but the flash of my camera made some parts look a little brownish. :(




And finally, a piece I did around the same time as 'Faces', entitled 'Down'. It's a simple painting, but I love it, it's one of my favorites.




And that's all for now! With a sale on paint that I spotted in the paper, and a whole pad full of acrylic paper, there will always be more to come! ^_^
