oil painting
I thought I would try a different style – a little more abstract than usual and far less detailed! This is the result! This giraffe was great fun to do and turned out better than I expected!
The tiger too was a new attempt at doing things differently. Both good fun!
The giraffe is on 40 x 50 cm canvas and the tiger on 40 x 40 cm canvas and both are painted in oils.
I apologise for the camera quality – both pictures are more distinct in real life!
Painted in oils on 40 x 40 cm canvas, these two are really enjoying a quiet moment together. Loved painting this – enjoyed every moment. I hope you get pleasure from it too!
I was gifted some new oil paint – orange yellow and sap green – and a lot of it! I am very grateful for the kindness of that generous person and thought I would use these colours as a basis for this picture. Initially I did think that it was unlikely it would work out very well with such diverse colours but I have been pleasantly surprised how the different mixes of the colours made totally different tones. Enough said, this is the end result, and I do hope you like it!
Black canvasses are new to me and I am still very much experimenting with them. Initially I found them really inspiring but over time I am thinking maybe they are not as great an idea as I thought! I shall still use them, I think, if I can get hold of them again!
These two pictures are both on 40 x 40 cm canvas and painted in oils. Let me know what you think!
This one was definitely stalking me! He kept presenting himself to me and I have given way and had a go at painting him. For close observers of my work you will notice that the style is very slightly different – I hope you like the effect.
He’s painted in oils on 30 x 40 cm canvas.
