I did a painting yesterday that I've ended up being particularly proud of (considering it was my first attempt at that particular subject.) Thought I'd share it here. What do you think of it?

    He's got great texture-- a strange sense of motion given the open background.

    I was looking at some of your work just the other day and enjoying seeing what you were working on.

    That's very nice, reminds me of those simple japanese prints.

      I think I'm heavily influenced (artistically,) by Asian styles.

    It's very oriental looking - I love it! How much?

      Actually it's going to be for sale in an upcoming show. If it doesn't sell & you're serious, though, I'll get back to you toward the end of the month.

    Thanks, everyone. I appreciate it.
    This is the 2nd in a potential "series" of paintings. The first one was a great blue heron (less realistic & more "stylized,") on an all white background; lucidflora.blogspot.com/2008/07/another-newesque-painting.html
    I think there's good potential for the series (thanks to y'all's input,) so I'll probably move forward with the idea.

    good work friend.
    How can u did that one?
  16. LGramlich
    Thanks, all.

    twoblogger; It was intended to be just a quick, practice painting, so I wasn't stressing about it. Not to mention nearly 20 years of painting experience & 30+ years of birding experience.
