Fish!


Yeah I know, before you even ask...I have no idea ;)
I was painting the figure and he just looked very serious and I thought I'd change up the mood, so when all else fails, I add fish.
This one is acrylic on masonite about 4"x6".
It's interesting switching between oils and acrylics since the painting process is different for each. I like the way you can work the oil paint even after it's been down for a while , but I also like the way the acrylics hold the brush strokes.

There have been worse philosophies.



I grabbed one of your business cards at the Paint & Pixel Festival today and thought I'd pop by. I've enjoyed browsing your blog!
