My First Landscape Painting Attempt in Acrylic - Finished

OK I am calling this one done :), There are things I really like about it and there are things I might do differently if I painted this again not that I am going to do that) Over all it was a great experience with acrylics, I am still working away at my others, I will post them when I get a chance. Thanks for stopping in, have a great day!

Old Barn Acrylic Painting I Am Also Working On - Update 1

I did some more work on my paintings last night. Here is the barn so far, this still needs a lot of work. There are a lot of things I feel still need to improve, but it is getting there :)

Old Barn Acrylic Painting I Am Also Working On - Work in Progress WIP

I also started this one of a barn I took a picture of the other day over on the Kingston Peninsula. I find even with the acrylic I need more than one to work on. This still has a very long ways to go. I am really starting to enjoy the acrylics, I feel I can be a little looser with the subjects I have been painting lately. I will post an update of the Cardinal as soon as I get a picture. Hope everyone has a great week!

My First Landscape Painting Attempt in Acrylic - Work in Progress Update 1

I have been working away at this, but seem to make little progress. I am also working on an old barn and the watercolor cardinal. I have been extremely busy and hopefully will get a chance to catch up with all of my favorite blogs. Thanks for stopping by. :)

My First Landscape Painting Attempt in Acrylic - Work in Progress

This is my first attempt at painting a landscape, please keep in mind that it is far from done and I am just starting to use acrylics, which i am starting to enjoy more and more. I started taking a 5 week workshop with a local artist Andrew Giffin, who is very helpful and has a wonderful way of working with people. I am hoping that I can get a couple more started so if I run into any problems i can get some help with them over the next few weeks. I started this painting on Wednesday night and only worked on it at home for a bit last night, but I ca see improvement, when i first started it I hated it :(, but as I work on it I think it might just turn into something :)

Cardinal Watercolor Painting I am working on - Still has a long ways to go :)

 This painting still has a lot of work to be done, the background and the bird need a lot of refining still., I am also working on some acrylics too. I will post a picture of my landscape that I am working on a bit later. hope everyone is having a great weekend.

My Latest Painting I am Working on a Chickadee in Acrylic - Finished

I finished this little guy as much as I can for now. I did not get the background the way I wanted but I think practice will solve that problem. This is not a good picture, I varnished it and then realized I should have taken a picture of it first. :(
