Painting.
« on: June 30, 2011, 09:32:25 AM »
I recently started up again after twenty years.









The three paintings will be one set of summer, fall, and winter.

The next two are portraits, of a sort.



A bit different take. I do like it though.

  I did some years ago when Bob Ross was still around .. Never could get the pine tree technique though.   It is a great way to pass the time too..

I don't know enough about art to tell the difference between Picasso's masterpieces and Patrick's finger paints. Hell, the main thing is to keep doin' what makes you tick.

Like motorcycling, for instance.  ;)

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

LOL, it's nice but like I'm not into poetry I'm also not into painting, though I find the dogs playing poker and drinking and smoking amusing.

I really do like that winter one, most of all, but that is probably because I like storms.   If you painted a good storm, my favorites are hurricanes, I would buy one, and no, I am not blowing smoke up your ass.  

Serious.

If it weren't for paint by numbers I'd have no art in my house.   :rotf:

I like what you do.  It makes me want to create something myself.  I really like the bold portrait.

I used to do some, I was a lot more into drawing, though.  These days I mostly do art metal, mainly lost-wax casting of my own designs.

I love Bob Ross and his happy little clouds. He was a wonderful man and his son is carrying on his love of painting. Had the chance to have him critic some of my paintings and even when honestly harsh he was wonderful, happy and positive.

Maybe his day job is also an art, and he's just letting his creativity find another outlet.
