Dragon & Gypsy

I loved painting the dragon, and I also thought the gypsy was one of my best pieces of art. So I wanted to combine them together and make a fun scene. This piece was originally going to be painted on a larger canvas as a gift, and this was a trial size. I am very proud of this piece; it was all done by my imagination and inspired by Adam, Kim and my previous art.

First paintings using acrylics

This is the results of my first time putting acrylic on paper. It actually came out pretty cool seeing as that I have never painted a wave before EVER!! I think i am going to be drawing more ocean scenes in the future. Acrylic is strange to mix with, I only have blue, red, yellow and green. No white or black. It has been truly educational re-learning the color wheel





I was painting this Koi Fish and was amazed how good it was begining to look, i decided to dedicate it to my friend Jaime for her birthday party we were going to that day and gave away my first painting. It is a big step, giving away a piece of art. It is humbling, embarrassing because you dont know if the person will want it or if they feel they have to take it. But her and Stewart seemed genuinely excited about the painting! I painted it on a Macy's box (the white slick box you put clothes in) and I really liked using that surface. The only flaw of this painting is that the ball point I used to draw the painting showed through the paint, and I thought it would be covered up. I also highlighted certain parts of the Koi with Sharpie. So it is also my first "Mixed Media" piece as well.
