Apprehension|Dread - 24"x30". Commissioned by Stepto.
The pictures I took of Dawn didn't turn out very well, but here is a low quality iPhone picture of a painting I completed on July 7. This canvas started its journey in January. I haven't settled on a name for this yet, I'm considering a couple options. This painting is also 24"x30" and will be available for purchase once it dries. It was 'painted' with palette knives instead of brushes, so the paint is very textural (which doesn't really come through in an iPhone photo).
I also finished another painting that I'll post photos of next week. And I've discovered that for the type of painting I'm doing, I can buy brushes at Home Depot instead of art supply stores for less $ and the same results. Which is good because I plan on doing a lot of painting this month and I hate washing brushes. The little brushes are easy, but I'm mostly working with 2" to 4" wide brushes and it takes forever to clean oil paint out of 8 of those. eeesh. I am a little lazier when it comes to soapy-soapy time with a $6 brush than I am with a $30 brush. It's not like I'm making any money at this so far.
