Makaze will always be held in high esteem here for his work in fixing our site after the Incident. I'd love to see some of his work!

Here's one James and I did a couple of nights ago. He counted the various paintings the three of us have done that are hanging in the house, and it was the thirtieth. James wanted to mark it as such, so we did a little golden glitter 30.

So, I never ended up doing anything more with that painting, until today... for Valentine's Day, I made it into a rose for Black Rock.

Oooooooo I love it of course! Have you thought about exhibiting your work or maybe you already do.

Never exhibited anything, I only have a vague notion as to how I would go about doing that, really. Take them to some place and say "Hey, you wanna hang these on your wall?"

I see a sword lying in a field of bright red flowers. Makes me wonder if the sword fell in battle or if it was tossed aside by a knight who found something more worth pursuing than war. Cool picture.

Thanks guys! Caught the bug again and I went and made another one last night:

I have a few more ideas I want to try as well. I want to mix this technique with encaustic (wax) painting.

There's something about that image that makes me uncomfortable. Like I'm in danger. :scared:

Nothing formal. This thread? My Imgur, among a bunch of other stuff?

So, I don't want to make anyone sad, but I made a mistake with that red painting. It was not as dry as I thought, and I put it on something on an slight angle, and the paint all ran. It is now a different painting, and the one I posted here is gone forever.

I'll miss some parts, but I do love the new version as well:

Image

I call it "The Spectre of Death" now, because that dark area to the left looks, to me, like some Skeletor Grim Reaper, and I likes it!

So sometimes things don't work out. I just finished up on a painting that I don't really like. I believe I'll paint over it, but I thought I'd share it anyway:
Spoiler: show

Leave that one as is.

My first reaction was "He truly fucked up."

My second reaction was "He truly, truly fucked up."

My third reaction was "HOLY SHIT THAT LOOKS LIKE A WARPED DEMON FROM SOME OTHER WORLD THAT HAS TWO EYES BUT OTHER EYES THAT AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE THERE AND ITS GAPING MAW IS A PORTAL INTO ANOTHER DIMENSION."

Can I buy it?

Sorry, Epi, but by the time you had posted that, I had already painted over it. :D

Here's what it looks like now:

I cut into the wax after painting, to make those curvy lines at the corners.

And this one was another learning experience. I learned that Epoxy Resin generates enough heat as it sets to melt wax! :haha:

Before the resin pour, the painting looked like this:

Here are a couple of angles from after the pour:

Thanks, ladies! The frog is one that I'm very proud of. My aunt asked if I took that photo myself when I put it on Facebook. :noble: Best post!!

The frog is actually from a picture I took at the cottage this summer:

This one is sort of an advancement on some earlier poured painting ideas. I put wax borders down to contain each pour.
