i discovered something cool with this work. when layering sharpie and paint then covering it with a glazing medium, the sharpie comes back through and looks pretty neat.

this one has some reeds from swan lake on it so it's very textured

i couldnt get a good picture with or with out the flash and i dont really like the flash but it does help to see some of the textured surface of the painting

passing through.

i may go back and rework this one but for now it sit on the wall in my living room

*the date is just when i took the picture, i forgot to turn it off....*

trying to get good pictures is hard.

i really like taking pictures and having photos of good moments but when it comes to taking a really nice photo of a painting- taking pictures is hard. i'll have some up soon but i'm not going to guarantee anything professional right now. i'm gonna have to barrow a better camera.

at work i was allowed to/hired to paint some door windows... this is what i came up with.

learning to blog

Well there are just too many choices aren't there. I'm sure I'll be changing the looks of this many times before i'm satisfied. I'll be uploading my work shortly, I want to take new pictures of all of my newer paintings.
