Flowers: updated painting


Remember this flower from last year, well I added a background. A cool purple... its versatile.

Two More Fairy Friends




Welcome two more fairy friends Iridessa(yellow) and Silvermist (blue)! These are very small canvas paintings. These were done in oil paint. I had fun painting them especially with the cute colorful background. I had also had fun with their wings and changed the color hues for variation.



Completed Tinkerbell painting


The Tinkerbell painting is all done!
She's in a kind of night sky full of stars and flowers. It's a very dreamy idealistic painting.
I completed this Tinkerbell painting in like two weeks time. It was done in canvas oil paint. It is rather large painting.
I added the paper flowers and the glittery greenish blue butterfly as a nice 3d touch. I bought these at art supply store.

Sketching Fairies




New theme: Fairies!

I may be too old for this but I enjoy the Disney Characters. My Favorites are the little mini flying magical creatures with translucent wings and Pixie dust.

They are fun!
Here I did sketches on canvas of Iridessa and TinkerBell the tinker fairy and the light Fairy. I also did Silver Mist too. She's the water fairy.

I only learned to draw them from the Learn to Draw Disney TinkerBell book.

Flower Power


Here is another flower I completed last month. It is a orange lilly, I think, not sure though... It was done on a large canvas in oil paint. It's pretty, right? Oh how big it is. I like to paint large flowers. It is fun. It was a little hard to get a lot of detail into the flower, though since it is highly saturated in orange, But I tried the best as was possible. Hope you enjoy!

(Ohh, there's a little oil dribble on the left side. I wish I could get rid of it.)

A Flower Focus

For the month of September and October I have decided to choose a topic of focus for painting...



So, of course, I chose the flower and I have been really focusing on the most prettiest I can find. Flowers are my delight because their beauty is awe inspiring. Here are two that I did recently. They are rather large on 16x20 canvas. Both were done oil paint. That is my medium of choice. They each took me a good two or three days to complete. I usually worked on it in my free time. Drawing, painting then perfecting and retouching. These are my first paintings of flowers on a large canvas.




The first one here is taken from this photo on the right. Taken from a Yard Flowers website, I forget which one (there are so many). It is called an Asiatic white lilly.





The second is painting is from an Easter Seals Calender 2010 of May. They are called narcissus flowers. They were orignially white I changed it up and made them purple-ish. Its unique.


Well, I hope you like them! "Enjoy your world!"- thats what I say. My mom really enjoys my paintings and so do I.
